Honestly I don't know why global moderators were added back? As far as I can tell nobody would benefit from being a global moderator, more stress, able to help less people, etc. I'm not saying that everyone has to apply for 1 server or 2, but I'm also saying that people shouldn't be required to apply for global moderator. I mean considering we're talking about people of age 13-16 applying for moderator here who(I assume) go to school and have to maintain appearances on a frequent basis, people who have school and exams and might not have all that much free time to play MC at all, let alone moderate all of the servers on mineverse. I'm suggesting that there be a new staff ranking, one that doesn't get changed. Admin(Owner, Administrator) Mod+(Head mod/Senior mod) Global Moderator Moderator/Guard People should be allowed to apply for 1 server alone, ranging to being able to apply for 4 servers, so basically anyone can apply for Factions or someone could apply for Skywars, Factions, Kitpvp, or Kitpvp, OP-PVP, etc. Once people get promoted from their moderator position on whichever servers they get accepted to moderate on, they become a global moderator(If they choose to) and Mod+ members will be current Head Moderators and trusted Moderators that the administration team chooses to promote in the future of the server. I just think this will be a way better system than forcing people to apply for a certain amount of servers before they're ready to fully moderate the entire network. Some benefits/downsides to this: Benefits: - People with a busier schedule can still help the server as much as they're able to. - Less stress to deal with when you moderate daily - Less toxicity towards staff, and less resignations because of toxicity/disrespect towards staff, seeing as people would not have to deal with things as much moderating only 1-4 servers, seeing as they're able to choose the amount they're comfortable with and already maintain before applying. - More opportunity to promote ready and able staff for certain servers that are lacking attention. Downsides: - People who see a mod on one server may not find one that is a moderator on the server they need assistance on. - Newer staff may see this as an opportunity to just pick an easy server to moderate and slack off for the rank. I know this might be a bit of a big change, but we dealt with it well before with the 2 server application, and it's not like any current staff would be changed to moderating a certain amount of servers if they don't request to be. I certainly think this would help out both current staff who dedicate as much time as they can to do the server and have to deal with time management and a lot more stress than they should, and applicants who just wish to apply for a smaller amount of servers, but still help out the community. Thanks for checking out my suggestion.
Global mods applied for this position they were ready for the challenge, you say they can't help many people but with the /staff command people can come to them if they need help!
I know that, that is why I am saying keep it because what if not many staff are ingame at once who would go and moderate the other game modes it the one moderator who has kitpvp/oppvp (there is ALOT of hackers there) they would just get away with it until someone reports them, but if a mod was there they could be banned straight away. Get what I'm trying to say or nah?
My point is, if there were to be more applications accepted for people who were not able to/couldn't moderate globally there would be more staff members than there currently is in the fairly small staff team compared to the community. In my eyes, no matter what there's always going to be some people who will just have to wait to get their problems sorted out, whether we accept that or not, we certainly can't change it, but what I'd rather have is as many deserving people as possible becoming staff, that way 1) The staff members that put so much work and effort in now will have a little bit more slack to work with, and might not be as stressed out and weighed down by moderating, on top of responsibilities they already have to deal with. 2) People won't have to wait as long for staff members to be able to help them out, seeing as there will be a range of different people moderating the gamemodes. Also, letting more people join who might not be able to moderate as many of the servers as global= more people, more people= more people in different timezones who can help people at different hours, which is really what this server needs.
Okay so, say I am a two server Moderator and the only one online. Player: Can you please come to Factions? There is someone hacking. Me: Sorry, I can't because I'm not a Moderator there.. Player: Oh, ok. Now, I am a Global Moderator again. Player: Can you please come to Factions? There is someone hacking. Me: Sure, let me finish up here and I'll be right with you! Player: Ok see you there. When a player is promoted to Moderator and is not comfortable in Moderating a certain game mode, they are not obligated to go on it as often until they know what they are doing. If someone is so busy that they don't have much time for Minecfaft, why are they applying in the first place? I personally like that everyone is a Global Moderator. There is no confusion about who Moderates what Players are not snubbed off in situations We can help each other out more and work as a team with things get difficult Clearing spam bots is easy when you have perms everywhere. When someone is promoted, they are trained and prepped before taking on big situations in every game mode. Whether they decide to make use of that training, that's up to them. Now, I am not saying that the staff team is perfect how it is but I believe that we work better as being Globals. But that's just my opinion.
I do agree global staff are a help, but I disagree when you ask why people bother applying if they don't have time to moderate 12 servers. Some people just love to help out and do have the time to moderate and help out on a few of them, but aren't up to/aren't able to moderate globally. This is why I think all current staff should be global, unless they ask to be otherwise, and all new staff be put on as regular moderators for whichever server they get accepted on. That way there's still a good amount of global staff, and for servers that aren't getting enough attention, newer staff can help out, as well as global staff being there in vice versa to cover servers which don't currently have any designated staff.
Moderating more than one server isn't that hard. In fact, not being able to moderate all servers would be more difficult rather than being global. More complexity, hence making it more difficult. There's no reason to go back and change it once again.
There was no reason to change it back to being global, so I don't see why this would be a problem. Forcing people to become global staff for 12+ servers isn't really going to help in the long run and this will probably have to get added eventually anyways.
They aren't forced, they applied. They already did the limited servers, and look how that turned out. Not well, huh? There's no reason to change something that isn't broken. :P
I suppose, I just don't see why applying for less servers can't be an option alongside applying for global moderator.
People have a choice whether they want to apply or not. The Admins are not going to go around and 'force' people to do anything. Players know what they are signing up for and if they don't want to Moderate twelve servers, Mineverse moderating isn't for them.
You don't have to moderate every server. I didn't go on Skywars, Skyblock, Skygrid, or Creative. I did do reports though. Like I said, not very hard to do. Your opinion, though.
My view on it was just that it was rather pointless to make people apply for every server if the people had no intention of going on said servers.
I'm happy with being able to apply for global but I believe there should be a choice to chose 1-2 servers and if you gain more time in the future and extend to other gametypes that you know you can be active on. Example: With prison the community doesn't always approve of players who get global moderator that don't play on the server and the whole community from what I've seen would much prefer instead of someone getting global that they get the individual guard role to actually keep prison fun with jailing and maintaining chat ect, not to mention if a player plays only one gametype they can connect with the community more and address the problems and get them fixed potentially.
