I think anonymous staff would be brilliant, no way for people to accuse staff of being prejudiced if they have no idea who they were, plus, staff could “strike” at any time, so people wouldn’t act up once staff leave.

I agree with GodsDead about whitelisting the server because even when I just connect I always see people fighting/not being polite. And we should really answer questions of new people because every days so much new people are joining Piratecraft and I can imagine how it is to have 20times the question “where do I play piratecraft?”.

CrazyPirate I would agree with your thinking how to manage it. I know a plugin which allows you to filter words, this plugin will count the words, which are blacklisted and after an concret amount of words you will get muted. I think the first mute time is 6 hours, the second time 12 hours and so on.

But I don’t know if this plugin fits with the other ones. I will try to find it and show you @GodsDead

I agree with Gods too many people fight and are not polite and we should answer new players questions cause lots a new players come each day and I can imagine how it would be to have as a staff 20 times the question “where do I play Piratecraft?”.

Do you mean that there would be some players along the “main” staff that have this ability, or just make every staffmember anonymous?

If the latter one, what happens to messages like “is there an admin on?”

Other than that, I find this anonymous muters -idea brilliant.

EDIT:

Additionally, we could have a Helper rank that answers questions and nothing else. This would leave the actual staff out of retarded questions. Like GodsDead said, this takes up a large amount of their time. Admins are not waiters. I think a reasonable solution would be to actually have a “waiter” rank (Helper).

The pros of having this rank is that a promotion to it requires none trust. The only way they can abuse is by giving out false information.

Rather than appoint new mods, with blue names, appoint ‘muters’ who can give someone a temp mute, nothing more, but don’t change their name or rank. That way, people don’t know when staff are on or not, meaning they must behave at all times.

‘Is an admin on’ is normally followed by a question a senior player can answer, so we’d start to see people help out a little more.

This is all overdue..

There are certain added things you could do to the site. I have a trading network that I run that has over 1000 people in it and I had to get out of forums and chats from helping people. There is a a system that I integrated onto my site from tawk.com it is a customer service system if you will.

Very easy to integrate within a word press site like this as well.

As far as staff… an Air Marshall process could be considered like stated before…it is kept secret and only has certain duties like kick, mute tp but no other granted moderator staff rules .

And I do agree that this is a Pirate server and we should be all about the Pirate way so I say we Make up Our Own language that involves swears of colorful flavor but not abusing. I have seen it as norm to be little people and insult them and even to go as far as say sexual harassment statements this is unacceptable . I have my wife and 11 year son playing on here.

I Love this server and can respect why godsdead did this… So lets clean it up and get back to playing.

Also I will be announcing my new Pirate trader Channel that will be all about playing minecraft pirate craft while I trade the markets during the day I will keep you updated.

@Texhnolyze Sounds like you need to be the first on the ban list with those reply’s, this is the kind of disrespect im talking about.

I found and bought a new plugin to manage whitelist urls/filter swearwords/stop all caps/sound notify (can be disabled)/points system that I will test out to make sure its compatible with all our plugins.

@CrazyPirate1 Yes you have just re-written what I wrote in my initial post, that’s exactly what I described, Issue being these players WILL be known as they will show up in the banmanager, this is legit as they will need to be tracked to make sure they are not abusing this. I think this would be a better option over having a community vote.

this is why i don’t chat very much with people, the Drama.. there are alot of cool people that don’t cuss & it’s a shame we can’t play (my day off)

Possible Solutions:

change all curse words to: Gosh! Example: You Son of a Gosh! or any ridiculous Word

make a Warrant Officer Rank: would be in Charge of Sailors behaviour on Server

include the Plugin that removes Entities and Hostile Mobs without NameTags during Server Restart

i just want to Play & Build and have fun!

Guys (@texhnolyze) just give Godsy some time and space. I’m sure he and the rest of the mod team are their butts off to get the server back to it’s former condition, by that I mean when newbies didn’t result to whining whenever they got killed or lost some crappy gear. I have personally, through writing the news and playtime, found some of the newer people that come on to the server not only idiotic but downright offensive to not only players but also staff members. This is absolutely unacceptable behavior and just a suggestion, @Godsdead you could whitelist the server so that only those who applied on the forums and such are allowed in. I know that most players and mods would want an open PirateCraft for anyone to join, but it just seems like this new generation of players have no respect whatsoever for any authority figures…

P.S.: Another idea I just thought of would be to make it mandatory to read the rules. So, sometimes servers will have a room that you must read the signs in it to proceed before you can play. This might work a little better to grab the attention of newer players than just a bible in their inventory…

I think the server might be back when we have a resolution.

This post kinda raises the idea of a second (none-pirate-related-server). Theres been a lot of talk about the fact Mean/rude people can talk like that because its a pirate server, But nope you still should not talk like that. So don’t blame the server theme for your actions.

(Idea) there was a server I use to play that had a moded server and just a plane survival server. Okay so PirateCraft is are moded server with cannons, ships, Crazy ass potions, ect. So could you make a second server that had no pirate theme but was just plane survival server. So Maybe it would be called {NoPerksPiratemc.com). There Always has to be a LiveMap,SecondWebsite,GriefPervention,Siege, But no pirate related things.

I would LOVE your opinion on this @GodsDead @smokeyriver I know it would be some work on top of the Mind Aching work you do, But sense theres no pirate theme theres not much maintenance to be done Thanks.

be praise and honor and glory and power,
