In terms of being promoted from builder to engineer it really helps if you're active on our Mumble server, other than that the actual promotion process is a whole lot more complicated than just having a lot of time on the server.
What Im3Nuron said is true... If you ask for rank or are impatient regarding the promotion process and pressure us into promoting you, we'll most likely not consider you.
In short, specifically we look at;
_______________________________________________________________________________
- Maturity (You don't have to be over the age of 18 to be considered mature)
- How much you help others (Telling people to type /RULES regarding general info, adding water/lava to guest bulds when it's requested and answering any questions that you can)
- How you treat lower ranking members (If you're a a bit of a knob towards lower ranking members then we tend not to consider you)
- How much you help higher ranks in terms of grief/bannable offenses (If you don't check enough blocks with the history command and aren't sure that it is grief, then don't report it, if you do so without making sure, you're wasting our time) and if a new Cool world is needed.
When we promote users past the rank of builder, we spend a considerable amount of time evaluating the user beforehand.
Once the user is at the rank of
Engineer, we will watch their actions closely. If the user abuses their powers or doesn't follow the lead of a higher ranking member regarding how to go about moderating. The user will either have a talking to or be demoted if it is necessary.
The promotion process to
Awesome is practically the same as from Builder to Engineer, however we will randomly ask members on the server their opinion of you and if there are any issues that need to be ironed out.
In short, specifically we look at;
_______________________________________________________________________________
- How well you moderate the server
- If you're correctly checking history
- Please report grief via the /STAFF command before you kick for it
- How you deal with spammers, capslock users, users who swear (We will look down on you if you don't give them ample warning regarding what they're doing before kicking the user, also make sure to use the /WHERE command on the offending user, if they're on guest TP to them and check if they're being griefed, most of the time users who swear in Guest are either being griefed or are griefing)
Again, once the user is at the rank of
Awesome, we will watch their actions closely. If the user abuses their powers or doesn't follow the lead of a higher ranking member regarding how to go about moderating. The user will either have a talking to or be demoted if it is necessary.
This is a jumbled mess coming from the top of my head, so if this is a little messy, sorry.
