I think this is a good idea. My /nick and /d were ridiculous i was sorta trying out what you guys would find acceptable.
Stanky what are your written ideas and could it include helpers being able to rank people to constructor but NOT designer. I think designer should still be done by OS.
They would be given either expanded WE commands to help clean up water/lava grief or //drain. They would in fact be able to promote Constructors, they would get /mute and possible /tempban with a limited amount time they could ban, say an hour. And commands would be tweaked as we learned more.
It is a very good idea but it would be great if they didn't have as much power as OS's. Helpers on creative should really only have /mute, /kick, and maybe /ban but that could give much power. Also it would make the server better because it would be able to help the server out.
I'm a supporter for some sort of staff system on creative as long as the current spam prevention plugins are toned down a bit. The community is growing larger and larger, arguably larger than the pvp server, a small staff system would do the server good.
I agree Fill! We should have the Anti-Spam turned down because it does come annoying. Also the small part of staff should have the ability to mute because if they go past the Anti-Spam the members could /mute for some time! This server is expanding. I saw a record to me which was 65+ on the whole server. We need more help before something could happen.
A very selective staff team would be needed in my opinion because the average age on the creative is much lower than that of PvP or Survival. Just my observation. Nobody likes abusive staff, do they? I think a basic staff rank with /mute and /kick would be good. Especially if that constitutes toning down the anti-spam filters, as Fill said. Personally, I have trouble when trying to do a simple WE command more than once. I end up spamming chat more with my nonsense messages avoiding the "Cannot send duplicate messages" thing.
Well.. it would make more sense if they were mature enough. If they are mature then they could be in it. I think maybe ONLY constructioners+ should be able to have it
I'm not sure if we're going with the same anti-grief plugin as we have on hardcore and (as I understand) will have on survival, but can't we expand that to creative and just be done with any possible griefs? It's a pretty powerful tool from what I've seen. Anti-Spam plugins are nice, but I'm still a fan of /ignore.
Grief is something that doesn't happen on the creative server and -cannot- happen. If you are getting "griefed", then it is your fault, as by adding someone to your plot, you are giving them full and unobstructed permission to build/destroy whatever they want on your plot (as long as it is not racist, doesn't target a culture, etc). So before adding someone, think twice and make sure you trust them. There is no need for an anti-grief plugin on creative.
I've told you guys that so many times I've given up trying. Please not I don't generally ban people for grief. I ban them for being antisocial jerks who only make our server worse. So if you see grief in the title of a ban post, it's not the full reason. Usually I'll catch them in the act and they will lie to me, or have a history of being a problem player, etc... If you give someone permission to make changes your plot - putting lava everywhere is one of the changes that they might make.
Wait, what? What does it sound like I said? I meant that since the people on creative tend to be younger that they may not handle staff well if the wrong people are chosen
oh, you oh yeah I know. I was making a pun that I shouldnt be staff on creative if there were ever staff there. lol
I think a creative version of the survival "helper" rank is awesome. I mean, when has it ever been easy to just log on; and find an OS that's on and not using /vanish? I like the idea that they can promote builders to constructor, hence my previous statement; and I can pretty much be sure that OS's don't want flocks of builders around them. Today natbyte was actually explaining the commands for surveyors, and they're totally reasonable. I also agree with Imme, about the ages for staff. Not to be an ageist, but no one wants some kid banning a player for a poor choice of words. But I do like that they're not as powerful as an OS; making them more of a helper staff, (oh wow repeating myself) and not "all powerful. This will be epic!
I saw you online tonight...did you notice anyone with a yellow rank [LikePoesideon]? Natbte and LP both had the yellow rank "surveyor" which is basically creative helper. It has plenty of commands to manage everybody. I'm surprised you didn't notice
