Minecraft Name:Zururu Suggestion:I think there should be a /duty on/off for the staff so we know who is on duty and who isn't(AFK or currently busy) And also /admins to check them Reason: This will be useful for staff if they don't want to be bothered or if they are currently moderating and also for players if they need help Any Other Information: Nope Link To This Plugin: N/A
No, I do not find this to be necessary as a Moderator you should always be willing to help someone who asks for it when you're online.
I agree with netsui. I have no problem moderating at all times of the day. However, I would like a command that would more clearly get across when I wish to only be bothered for moderating issues.
Yes, I disagree with moderators being "on or off duty" but rather a command that alerts mods/super-mods directly about this sorta stuff. I know there's /helpop but are there any ops on ECC? No because they get greedy and start to do things like diamond give-aways. I'm thinking more along the lines of a /helpmod command.
I disagree with the whole "on/off duty" thing. More like a /helpmod command, similar to the /helpop command (which has no purpose, seeing how we have no ops)
As ryan said, we are expected to help when is needed. If a mod is afk and a user needs help they should have setup a afk message so it is known. On/Off duty plugins are not necessary.
You don't have to be an op to revive the /helpop messages. /helpop is apart of essentials, and you can assign permission nodes for who can send and receive the messages. You can also set aliases for the command, so it could be /helpmod or /staffhelp.
I can understand the need for an on/off duty flag, since I am one of those who liked to play on ECC with my friends, or work on a project, or just go mining/farming as a way to de-stress. Hard to do when being swarmed with PMs. However, often the act of helping people is a way of de-stressing, too. Most of those who become Mods are people like this, so when we are online, that usually means we are ready and able to help. using /ch afk <message>, both for staff and the general ECC populace, is a great indicator of just who is or isn't available. I use it myself when I'm taking a break, but leaving myself logged in, or for when I'm playing at work and my replies could be slow.
As KMaxwell just stated, using the afk message for something like "Currently working on a build project, sorry If i don't respond" or something along those lines. Although a mod is required to help, they also like to have their fun times on ECC building and pvping and such. The afk message will ensure to a user that you are actually afk or currently busy in the case of a pm or such.
