Oh well.. staff have to be active for most of the day to fill out reports and help out. They don't have to be on necessarily all day, but for at least a few hours a day.
well see the thing is, mods don't have to be on 24/7. however when a mod is sitting in creative when there's a hacker in sg is a problem.
If that is happening consistently message an admin about it. The more you let them know the quicker they can resolve the issue.
I should be paid xD I'm on like 6-14 hours depending on the day I am extremely active always have been. #PayWitha ^_^
That's the problem with this community, you expect staff to do alot of shit at once that is impossible because we have a life in a real world and completely act like it can be possible. You expect too much from us and think that it'll be easy to do so. Some staff even have real life paying jobs. Here's another problem, you don't even know what happens within the staff team and assume staff are lazy due to the fact there's no punishment messages displayed at your screen. You can't expect the staff be 24/7 McDonald restaurant with the all-ready mcfood behind them. Its volunteer work not a job that pays you a monthsalary.
Most of the time when I'm online, is usually because I do staff work. If I want to play games then I'll just hop on an alt. It may come as a surprise to you, and I know a lot of other staff have used this as an excuse but I'll just say it again: Unfortunately we have lives. We have Work. School. Kindergarten (jk).
Well said. You're not talking to a brick wall. Staff have lives outside, to set how many hours one should be on is too much in my opinion.
I agree with the points above but the actual message of the post is that staff waste their whole day on the server. Honestly we don't waste our whole day on the server, there are multiple staff on throughout the day but as you go through the day there are different staff on and it's not always the same ones on. But I'm not saying we are never on. Many people say that staff are never on but that's also not true. Granted there are times when there are less staff online but we have many things that we need to do. As well as handling reports I personally get called over to certain places by players to help them, and remember this is coming from a helper, so Moderators(+) have a lot more to do. Don't think we aren't doing anything because most likely it is being sorted behind the scenes, normally in an attempt to stop any drama from being created.
Staff don't have to be online at all. Although if you do in fact become very inactive, you may have your rank taken away. There is no set time you must be on, or for how long.
Why is this debate even happening? Staff are on, when they are on, end of story. It's a game at the end of the day.
Staff is on when they have the time. They volunteer and do not get paid to be here. They do this on their free time. They're also allowed to play on the server. When I think staff don't respond quickly enough in game, which is really rare given the amount of reports I make, I post on the forums. So I really need to ask you, are you trying to make a suggestion or start trouble? It looks like you're trying to embarrass them because you're angry. I've seen some of the things you've said, you're no saint. In all honesty, maybe you should rethink your approach on this thread.
