More staff is needed

[HarryVanSunweb]

Hey Cube,

Many people (me included) are just done with Cube atm. Cube IS going to lose many people if they keep acting this way. I would love to prevent you from this, that's why I'm creating this thread.

NOTE: @Guardi4n made a thread about this, but Cube locked it for no reason.

Cube currently has 33 moderators, 10 developers, 9 admins and 2 helpers.
This may look as much to you, but compared to two other big servers (Hypixel and Mineplex) it's nothing. They just got many more staff members.

You can notice this very well. For example updating to 1.9
Hypixel and Mineplex were updated to 1.9 whitin 2 days. Cube had to work a week on it and still there are tons of bugs.

It's well-known to everyone Cube needs more staff. But why don't you add new staff? So many people applied (more than 1000) But almost no-one gets accepted. I tagged many people in @Guardi4n his thread, who all deserve Helper in my opinion. But the staff just ignored my post. (That's why Im making this thread).

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING PART OF THIS THREAD IS NOT MEANT TO HATE ON @CamelinaBoat

For example @CamelineBoat he has got only 9 messages, but he's still helper. How is this possible. There are so many members who are very active on the forums, speak English very well, and help many new members.

Also I think it's better if developers were working in groups instead of solo. This allows you to work on one update for one month. Cause you're current plan causes updates to take very long.

I hope you'll finally listen to me cause if Cube stays this messy, I'll probably quit. Any many more people too.

Regards,
Dennis

Camel is a staff member on Chunk. That is why he is staff here, when chunk merged with CCGN we brought over our staff team (I was a mod on Chunk so that is why I'm staff here). We did have to take an interview, so don't worry about that. Now Camel doesn't have a lot of posts, because he is just busy with a lot of things. Just like the dev team here. Most of our devs, if not all don't work full time. This means we can't roll out new content and fix bugs as fast as other big servers. We did pretty good in getting 1.9 out on our server with the amount of staff we have. Now to your next point, the lack of staff. I do agree with you on this one, We are understaffed and we need more staff members.

We have had so much apps as well. as stated in other posts. Mac and Luke are going through all the apps, carefully picking out who is good for what. Just cube right now is doing a lot of work, we ask that you give us time. I'm sure that cube will be updating our staff team soon, you just got to wait. We want staff members who are patient, and to be honest when people keep asking about this it sure doesn't look to good for them, but on the other hand it is good to express your opinion, so we give you points for that XP. We also want staff who are perfect for cube, and can demonstrate that they are worthy enough for the huge task.

 

[Story]

I highly doubt that the lack of staff is causing the network to fall apart considering most of the points raised in Guardians thread were about the lack of completed maintenance and effort. I think you should read the thread again.

CamelinaBoat was transferred as a helper from The Chunk after CubeCraft merged with the network.

Thank you for explaining this :)
I didn't know Camel is a staff member on the Chunk (sorry for making this mistake)

 

[CamelinaBoat]

Sorry to be a bit more quiet than most, but I do more things than what is just on the forums. I was also alot more active back on thechunk before the merge thing was actually a thing yet. My school has been ramping up alot and i don't find much time to post tons and tons of stuff all over these massvie forums. I do however, find the time to think of a few suggestions and whatnot that I think would be good for the server, which was the whole reason why Mac accepted me in the first place to be a helper back on thechunk. to date, I have well over 49 PAGES of suggestions on google docs that I have devised myself or while chatting with Mac. Some of which i will be posting on these forums later to see how yall react, as new ideas sometimes require community approval before being added into the game.
Sorry to disappoint you, but Imo school is a good reason for being this inactive. the reason I can still make suggestion Docs but not be on the forums is because the forums are so big that i don't want to go back and do my work and just sit and be on the forums. that doesn't really help me get good grades now does it?

I really hope to be more active soon, and will be posting many suggestion things on these forums soon, but in the meantime, I hope you can put up with a little more inactivity.

Sorry again,
Cam

@CamelinaBoat No worries! Mind your own bisness and do your own thing, you are how you are :P
You will do great on Cube.

I understand Harry(Dennis),
In the thread of Quardi4n I saw that somebody sad that Mineplex get over 200 staffmembers, so I go to Google and I saw that they get around the 100 but I think Cube get around the 25.?
I and a lot of other people appieled for helper, so Harry taged a lot of people in that other thread from Quardi4n and I think that CubeCraft needs to give them a change becuase they wants to help CubeCraft to make it the best server of the world(For me CubeCraft is the best server so xD). And if they really loves CubeCraft they will do that (I will do that). And how more staff, how better the server an how faster the updates are here! And if it isn't a good staff member you can make him a member.... But I think that this pleople can get a change!

I don't see how adding more staffmembers will help, why should we have more staffmembers, @HarryVanSunweb ?

 

[iKick]

I think to update everything faster...

 

[PinkSparkleWolf]

I think to update everything faster...

If we add more staffmembers, they will be Helpers and eventually, Mods. How can a Mod (or Helper) update faster? That's not our job.

 

[Zhypo]

@PinkSparkleWolf
More Developers, a good possibility to have more updates faster and bugs could get fixed faster.
More Admins, don't see the biggest point in adding more admins to be honest. Sinse there are quite some already.
More Mods, more in-game Mods, so people with questions in-game would be getting helped more. Not everyone that plays on Cube knows that there is a forum. A lot of underaged players have no idea and sometimes need serius help. Of course, some Moderators will awnser to players that are asking for help in game. But not everyone does. So this could be usefull to add Mods that will most likely help in-game.
More Helpers, of course no one can just get Mod, you need to have some work for it! That's why they could add Helpers that would be in-game helping the most, would be with Mods after to.

Uuh xD Yeah
But they can help the DEVs if they get small questions or any. And if a DEV says how some works the helper/mod can help him..

 

[Zhypo]

Helpers nor Mods have a lot to say to Developers. If you didn't knew yet, The staff is like this; Owner - Dev - Admin - Mods - Helpers - Players/Members

I can see there reason why there should be more Helpers, yeah. I don't wanna brag, but I do answer questions in-game, it normally ends up with everyone asking, so it's very chaotic xd That's why I also see why not every Mod is interested in a huge amount of questions.

 

[Zhypo]

Yes, it does get chaotic sometimes. That's why it could be a good use to have in-game Helpers or Mods. Most of them are more active on the forum than in game. What if there were would help out the CubeCraft community a lot!

Why not? You wants to be a MOD...? If I get a question about any I will always give an answer

Why not you wants to be a MOD...? If I get a *important* qeustion about any I will always give an answer,

Ehm..... English pls xd
