Hello there, I am MajoricalMask, Council and Moderator of the Quarry.
In this thread, I will outline the crucial points that each staff member must fulfill, and these are to be followed when in servers or in the group. Obviously, there are going to be multiple amounts of situations which players require staff members for. It is your own effort that deals with these tasks accordingly with and without help, and as soon as possible. I will go through each staff member so you don't have to read every section, and you can understand in a faster timescale of what is to be expected.
============================================================================================ Engineer: ---------- Your own physical task is to maintain rank changes constantly when players reach a certain number of mined blocks. Seeing as most of the community understand that they must post in 'The Quarry Fan Club' when they reach the required amount, Engineers must be ready to change ranks via the 'Group Admin' section to change a players rank. For example, Novice>Skilled. Please remember, that some users can lie about their new rank and you must check their badges to confirm if they truly have reached the number mined. I ask however, for you not to do this in huge amounts, as we must see effort from all Engineers when doing this task. Please remember also, when you have changed a players rank, that you delete the comment from which they asked for it in the group. This frees up space and also makes it easier for other staff to do the next batch of rank comments. Please note as well, players will also ask in-game for rank changes, so be ready for these requests. Along with this, players may regularly ask for stat restorations, due to save issues being a problem on the Quarry, but you must direct them to a higher member of staff, namely a Moderator, to deal with. Let the player know that they can request this on the group wall, or by contacting a Moderator.
However, you are also welcome to report to a higher member of staff (Moderator+), if a particular player is a problem in a server. It is entirely your choice if you want to remind them of the rules in a mannered way, though this can lead to a heated argument. Just remember, you are not able to use kick commands as an Engineer as of yet, but this may change in 1.0. We ask however, that you gather evidence of these incidents, seeing as it could lead to a difficult situation where we cannot prove their wrongs without it. Please make sure evidence is always present, and it will be far easier to deal with.
As a roundup, Engineer carries out the following tasks:
-Change Miner ranks in the Quarry Fan club, but also delete comments after you have changed them. -Report to a higher official if any problems arise with players disregarding the rules of Roblox, but crucially, gather evidence of this.
============================================================================================ Moderator: ---------- Your role is an important position to the well-being of the community. Your regular schedule can be in three areas, but I believe all Moderators are required to do all when visiting the Quarry. I will sum up the tasks you must fulfill in a brief explanation (Good luck to me), but feel free to let me or other Moderators know if you need a vaster explanation.
-Keep an eye out for players disregarding the rules (Roblox) on servers. This includes rules which are 'Do not ask for admin', and 'Do not disrespect the staff members'. If they become a problem, give them a warning. After around three warnings it is recommended that you kick the player using '/kick/(username)' but make sure you have gathered evidence of their wrongdoing. However, if they return to be a disturbance once more, you are welcome to use the command '/ban/(username)' so they cannot return to the server you are in, as long as evidence has been gathered. This can then be discussed as to whether they receive a temporary ban or a warning. You can also use the command '/explorer', and look under 'Lighting' to check the chat history of the server. If you find any players on there which have been a problem, take a screenshot and let the staff group know.
-Keep an eye on the group wall of the 'Quarry Fan Club' for any posts which may be unrelated, or offensive. This can also be for the comments section of the Quarry and The Quarry Dev. Same route for the warning system, that three warnings can lead to the exile of a player. If they continue to be a disturbance, then this can lead to a temp. ban on the Quarry or permanent depending on the severity of the situation.
-You have access to the /console, in which allows you to change players stats if you are in the same server. The other moderators can demonstrate this to you in full detail if you need assistance. If you need a list of every single upgrade value, contact me and I will supply it to you. Do keep in mind, most players will need to have stats restored, and in order to know their stats they attained, you must check the badges they earned. Some players will tend to lie about their stats, but you must check their badges to confirm it. Some may ask for their upgrades to be returned, and I would recommend you give them a number of upgrades back based on another player who is closest to them. For example, if someone has reached 100k mined and they are half way through the granite upgrades, give them the same amount back. Again, feel free to seek advice from other Moderators.
You must deal with these tasks with a subtle approach, and keep your calm, or it can look bad for all of us as staff. But don't be put off, as you have been given this position due to your efforts, and I'm sure you will do just fine. As a round up of your tasks, they are stated below:
-Moderate a number of servers using the given commands stated, and be able to report to staff members to keep an eye out. Make sure to gather evidence to make it easier for all of us. -Moderate the group wall and delete any unrelated material, and maintain a peaceful community in the group and in game. -Be ready to get requests for stat restorations, and ask the other moderators if you need a tutorial with this.
============================================================================================ Council: ---------- Council is mainly known as a 'Higher up' Moderator, in dealing with staff matters as well as players. Currently the only person in the council is MajoricalMask (Me! Information correct at the creation of the thread) and I am always ready to serve if you need help.
Council is pretty much all of the staff in one, but in contact with staff members. Along with this, you can report to the Council for recommendations of staff recruits, and also any bans that need to take place, providing you have sufficient evidence. I will be in servers or in the Dev server on a regular basis, so feel free to PM me on any problems or follow me in servers to contact myself.
============================================================================================ Overlord and Admin ----------
Overlord is Demonization, that is all. He overwatches the entire staff team, and he likes cats.
Admin's are above Demon in ranking, and cover all of the tasks stated previously, but Demon is more awesome, of course.
============================================================================================
If you progress well with the tasks assigned, you will most likely have a change in rank yourself to a higher position. (Do keep in mind that 'Overlord' is Demon's personal rank.) However, if you misbehave and do not deal with these matters in the correct manner, higher officials and other staff have the right to remove your position from staff. Please do not allow us to do this, as we need as much help as possible when 1.0 arrives.
Any other queries or suggestions you have, you are welcome to direct them towards Dummiez, but please be aware that he is very busy working on updates and has many other PM's that come to his attention. It is best to direct them towards other members of staff or mainly the Council.
That about wraps up everything. We look forward to seeing what you can do, and hope you work to the best of your abilities to create a safe community for The Quarry! (And hopefully more people join me in the Council, yeesh...)
Thanks guys, and best of times!
MajoricalMask- Moderator/Council

Great work on the listing, I'll be restarting my lists again now that I have my computer back ^_^ -semi functional-
------------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to add, if the situation comes up... if you see a player with a higher rank than badges are showing, use these options...
1. Inform a moderator
2. Join that player in game, if mined is confirmed - post confirmation - name, rank
3. Join that player in game, if mined is lower than rank - post name, rank, current amount mined... -- we can look over to see how they got this rank & who from --
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your time ^_^ |
