I understand many ops are either busy or enjoying smp but honestly, this is an ongoing issue. sometimes we go full days without ops and other times its the late nights. i suggest we work out some kind of system (shifts possibly?) so we can have a constant op at most times. I cant tell you how many times people have confused me for an OP and begged me to fix their stuff or rank them. Not to call out OPs (honestly im not trying to call out anyone), but as an op i understand the job as a whole is to protect, help and rank players and to care for every single one (until ofc a cause for ban is in question). It makes me sad to see the griefed and unranked members begging for help when there is none at the time. As OPs, you must have the responsible duty to carry out your role in the Opticraft society. Without you guys, the server erupts in utter chaos.
I am not expecting anyone to just be forced to come in or volunteer but at least work out something. If you must make shifts, then do it. If you must approve more OPs then please do it (we have plenty of eager people wanting to help out). Finally if you want to volunteer to spend more time, then by all means do so. If i could propose another idea....I was thinking perhaps we have sort of, trial ops or something (a rank on its way to be full op but not there yet; capable of banning griefers and fixing grief but not being able to rank yet). I know this would mean a complete change into Opticrafts ranking system, but they are only proposal ideas that i hope might influence admins to consider.
I know this isnt a simple process but sometimes there comes a time when issues like this must be solved. Im a recruit who hopes to one day be a builder and then eventually OP so i can help out.
Thank you, in advance. I hope this is all considered.
