In any given situation where a small group of people are, in simpler terms, "in charge" of a bigger group, it is unavoidable to be a recipient of dissatisfaction from the big group as a member of the smaller group. This is often overwhelming. Nonetheless, this is just how it is and is to be expected. Nothing will change from mods telling the bigger group to calm down and understand. This is because they are the majority and when given the power to, they will speak. I found it a bit silly when mods and various other players proclaimed op was "bashing" or "hating" on staff. I'm glad others think the same as well. He's calling for change because he's dissatisfied with the staff team as it is now. He in no way wanted to specifically target staff for being imperfect, because it's obvious already, it is. He attempted to bring this into light and suggest solutions to the problem. Any mods or otherwise who feel personally offended shouldn't be.
I don't think the staff team is doing well right now . Other than that this thread is probably going to be taken down by pile or someone else like mine
If you feel like you have a suggestion to improve the team: http://www.mineverse.com/suggestions/ If you feel that another staff member has been abusing or underpreformimg: http://www.mineverse.com/forums/report-a-staff.29/ If you feel like you could possibly do better: http://www.mineverse.com/applications/ However, if you feel like complaining about the staff, or anyone for that matter, without any grounds or points to back up your pathetic argument, you can simply leave. I'm sure there are a host of other servers that can live up to your standards.
I wasn't bashing it, I was stating some improvements we could do to help the community. I can tell why you hate these threads because you're obviously a staff manager. I have applied in the past for like 696969696969 years but didn't get accepted xD
yeah the mods are perfect, they ban u for saying 2 lines about demoting them I say the server needs advertisement but that's just me
whenever someone wishes to start up a polite and sensible discussion on something controversial the whole thread burns up in flames as worse as the Great Fire of London
Too lazy to quote the rest, but being a staff member isn't as hard as ppl are making out, especially if you interpret the opportunity in a positive way. Hypocritical rating pleaaaaseeee I'm kidding I feel like I shouldn't have to point it out but I just did.
The staff team is good :p I agree that it would be handy if they promoted more people since school has started and the mods will be less online. There are sadly not that many good applicants right now. Don't blame the staff for people not applying (this picture is taken right now) :3
I don't know whether to disagree or to agree with these threads. I appreciate the staff with all I can, but literally every time I'm online, there is zero staff online. Like @RandomNinja14 said, staff members have lives - and it's a hard argument. I think the team would benefit from EU and AU staff members, but then like @Pile said finding loyal, worthy candidates can be hard. As for your thread, I now start to think people make these threads simply for attention and posts. There are so many threads bashing, insulting, making fun of or "helping" the staff team it's insane. The staff team have managers, surprisingly - they are capable to manage their own staff team. I think this type of thread should be stopped. Because it's a classic loop of jumping on the bandwagon, and then so many players blindly support or back the op without even knowing the struggle, time, effort and dedication the staff put in, in their own time. Yeah - we might not see them when we're online, because they might be in a different region, does this mean they're inactive and incapable, and that we need more staff members - absolutely not.
Exactly, but I don't think he is making this to disrespect the staff though. I think he's trying to say that getting more moderators would benefit the server in many ways. More moderators to play in-game, more people to watch over the community and help people, less stress and struggle for the moderators etc.
But finding these moderators is no easy task... EU applications are slim, so even if they did promote more players - the guy would be back here in a month saying that the new promotions are inactive... (Due to timezones).
It's currently 8:08am US/PST on a Tuesday, mods are in school at this time. It's 4:08pm EU/GMT+1 on a Tuesday and mods from this region are just getting home from school and could be in game. It's 1:08am AUS/GMT+10 on Wednesday morning and mods from this region are sleeping. We need more EU staff, unfortunately there has always been a lack of EU applicants. We do have some applicants currently and they are always being considered, but I refuse to just promote whoever based on their timezone. Sorry if my interest is based on protecting the players over just promoting willy-nilly. This time zone has always been an issue on this server for as long as I have been a member here. We currently have 2 EU staff members. This is the list of EU staff that have ever been accepted: http://www.mineverse.com/forums/accepted-applications.105/?prefix_id=29 tl;dr? We need more EU applicants.
