    Hey, i was discussing this with moderator Dovashy and i think that it would be a good idea to hold a vote every month or so, to let the people of Minetime Skyblock decide on a new helper. There could be a warp or a forums page with a list of candidates decided by the staff, where Skyblockers could vote for a different, new helper each month. The winner would then be a helper for a month. Just a suggestion.

    "to let the people of Minetime Skyblock decide on a new helper"

    Why only that server?

    I don't think this is a good idea.

    Not a bad idea to be honest. But there are definitely some cons to this too.

    I don't think we will leave it up to just Skyblock player to decide this. If we were to do this everyone would have a say in it. Staff members have an idea of who the new Helpers are by looking for mature, helpful, and active players.

    I don't think so because what if it is just a new player no experience with MT. The new helper wouldn't know anyone in staff.

    That's why he said the staff propose the candidates and the players vote for who they think should win.

    Well, let's take into account alts. They could be used to vote multiple times.

    No.

    Almost everyday I see people posting " is anyone i know on?" and almost every day the reply is no. Barely anyone on minetime knows eachother and those who do are a minority. And anyway, it was just a suggestion.

    And if then new helper was misbehaving, then you could report him and he would be demoted.

    Not a bad idea, but like many people stated above, it may be easily cheated.

    Bad idea only because some very popular player with no experience could be chosen, which wouldn't really help the server. Let helpers be decided by staff members, not by the people.

    I don't like this idea, because no matter what you do, it will end up making @CollinPotato & the staff look bad. :( Everyone could just vote for some advanced hacker. Bang! MineTime is screwed. The hacker is now opped & can easily just nuke everything. Then MineTime is finished, the server is hacked, everyone takes their own separate ways & goes to other servers. Then MineTime is finished forever. :"(

    A helper doesn't have those types of privileges, that is a mod you are talking about.

    Helpers and moderators aren't op'd and anyway, they can't break blocks in server spawns.
