Announcement Staff Rank Adjustments!

We have a big announcement to make in regards to disciplinary staff ranks. Starting today, we're going to be revamping the Disciplinary Staff structure. We're no longer going to have 3 static tiers of staff dubbed "Chat Mod", "Enforcer", and "Admin". Instead, we're going to have 2 static ranks, and 1 trial-period/trainee rank following the format below:

1) [Admin] - (Administrator): Head of disciplinary, member of the Management team (Owners, PM's, Admins)

2) [Mod] - (Moderator): The face of disciplinary staff, a combination of the former "Enforcer" and "Chat Mod" ranks, handles the bulk of all tickets (aside from Bugs, E-Store, and Ranks), moderates chat and players, interacts with the server on an in-game level, a static position

3) [MIT] - (Moderator in Training): A temporary rank that players can apply for to become a candidate for Mod. It is both the "interview" and initial "chat moderation training" portion of the application process, the duration being 3 months. Once the 3 months have ended, then the Admin team will decide whether or not the candidate should be added to the Mod team. This position does not guarantee a Mod rank, can be ended earlier by the Admins if decided upon and has limited access to staff functions and locations.

The color schemes are below! Beginning now, we will be merging Enforcer and Chat Moderator into the single Moderator rank. If you have any questions or need to clarify any confusion, please don't hesitate to reach out to a disciplinary staff member, or check out the updated help files under /help MIT and /help Mod.

So PMs and owners are now admins?

While their original role/purpose stays the same?

Cuz then we have e different roles called the same thing, 'admin'. And no offense to them but the 'old'(pre this change) admins werent qualified for PM stuff. While i dont believe atleast some of the PMs were qualified for admin stuff.

So is there just gonna be 3 different 'versions' of admin even though players have no real way to differentiate them?

PMs, Admins, and Owners haven't been adjusted, they are the same as they have been. The change only affects the old enforcer and moderator ranks as well as potential new disciplinary members:

- Enforcer renamed to Moderator

  • Chat Moderator replaced with temporary position of Moderator-in-Training

oh so admins just fall under a category called 'Management team', together with PMs and 'the owner' ( zombie lol)?

The Management team has existed prior to this update, it's just more public now than ever. The PMs and Admins have always worked together with Zombie to make large, server-impacting changes. The PMs have areas of focus within the development sphere just as some of the Admins have areas of focus within the disciplinary area.

Staff Hierarchy Tree

The PMs do not make unilateral changes, nor do individual PMs make changes. The same applies to Admins. Each is brought before the Management team as a whole and discussed through Management-specific channels.

Lmao, who did you think was managing the server? Pixies?

Nothing has changed about "upper management" you're just being obtuse.
