Nobody likes a helper wannabe :x

[Sophie]

Helper wannabes are annoying, both because they tend not to qualify for the role that they so desperately desire, and because they flood the forums with useless posts in order to get their message count up. Why not move the 'Helper applications' section of the forums to an area that is only accessible to six month-old forums users? This way, you're assured that far less applications are coming from randoms who have only today made their forums account, and have quickly spammed the Media section for their fifty or so messages. It would make the forums cleaner, and would also make finding decent helper applications a lot easier. I think I recall there being over a thousand applications at one point, which must take an immense amount of time to read through.

Opinions? :3

Edit: By "Helper wannabe", I don't mean anybody in particular. I'm referring to those people who have literally only made their forums account with the intent of getting helper. They have little to no interest in the server/community itself. You often see new statuses coming up in the feed along the lines of "Hoping to get helper!!" yet they've made their forums account that same day.

I agree, those accounts that actually post completely meaningless things to get 100 messages are annoying. Instead of telling people that ask to be a moderator "apply for helper here you need at least 100 messages", you could just tell them to figure it out themselves. I suspect that would prevent most of those people from even trying already. If they can't use google or the search feature to find that information they probably aren't qualified. But I also don't like the trend of calling anyone a helper wannabe when they are trying to be helpful by commenting on everything. It's probably not true, I make dumb comments all the time and I don't want to be a helper.

This is cubecraft, what do you expect?
Just a tag on a block game server, it's not anything special.

Cant wait till zShauna sees this thread.

I love the idea but it should be made 3 months. The minimum requirements to apply for helper are three months on the forums.

 

[Lightning McQueen]

BTW 6 months is a lot its waayyyy too much not worth timerino

 

[Despacito 2]

This idea...
Simply brilliant. The amount of applications will certainly be reduced which could result into the staff recruitment team being able to take a look at some applicants more in dept. Currently they get too many applications of players that do not fit any requirements. I even heard some people applied without having a forum account which is a must have.

Must happen all the time. People ask in-game how to become a staff member, a player sends them a link, and they apply from there.

But ...
Do people gelper wannabe for a free obby rabk or for fame?

Probably a combination of fame and a desire to help the server.

desire to help?

 

[Sophie]

desire to help?

Yeah. They enjoy the server and see a staff member enforcing the rules, and think "I could do that!!" and so they apply.

 

[RayzMC]

Now for the suggestion, I couldn't agree more.
There isn't a reason not to add this and can save both staff and the members who do not fit the requirement time.
It's a win-win.

 

[remio]

Sophie, that's an very good idea!
But, CubeCraft has a page on the forums for helper applications and they wrote there: When you are spamming on the forums to become helper alll your forum accounts will be removed.

 

[Spyridon Agnew Dragon]

I dont like the name, its to old sounding it should be "helper tryhard"

 

[A pigeon]

Terrible name

 

[remio]

Terrible name

I think its a nice name, it makes the rank cooler!

 

[A pigeon]

Its not a rank

 

[remio]

Its not a rank

I think its a rank, but you havent purchased it.
It's a rank because you have a coloured name, more items, you are able to kick and you can vote.

Ir maybe they can look at the quality of the threads, but 6 months is a really long time... So maybe 1 or 2 months of active forums:)
