Staff Guidelines
Note: By applying for a staff rank you are agreeing to uphold these terms. No exceptions.
Goals for the staff team:
We want our team to be mature and respectful in any situation. We do our best to pick the best people to who can uphold these terms. Like all minecraft servers there are going to be complaints about staff members, which is why we have the staff complaint form, these guidelines/rules are here so our staff team/future staff can keep in line and do their job to the best of their abilities.
Keeping your staff rank:
Rules while you are staff
- you must abide by the same rules each of the players do, set a good example.
- Being rude or directly insulting players is NOT tolerated, you will be warned and if you continue demoted.
- Associating with DoS/DDoS attacks to anyone or anything will result in a permanent demotion.
- Threatening to punish anyone is not allowed,
- If we receive a report that you did not take action against a broken rule and you are friends with that player you will be warned and if you continue, demoted. That is showing favoritism.
- You are not allowed to say "eZ", "rekt", or anything related. It is seen as rude toward some people and can show immaturity. You will be warned and if you continue after warning demoted.
Like I said above, just follow the same rules as the players, be mature, respectful, and set a good example and your job will be pretty easy.
If you receive a message from a player, and that player is asking for help with something/someone you are required to reply to them and help them. If you are busy or you are unable to help that player you must post in the staff chat so that other staff members can see the problem and help. If the player catches you at a bad time, say you were just told to get off the computer or you have to step away for a moment etc.., simply post in the staff chat and get someone else to help them. If no one else is available tell them either to report it, if it is player related, or if they themselves need help tell them you have to go do something or that you are unable to help right now.
We do not want staff members to prioritize the server over their family, IRL friends and schoolwork.
If you need to take a break from being on the server because things are just hectic for you right now please please contact the owners or super mods. We are more than willing to give you a break to help relieve stress.
Punishment Information
This section will explain how all punishment systems work on TacoMC and give clear examples of when NOT to deal out punishment.
Kicks:
----------
Kicking a player will disconnect them from the server and then can rejoin. You can only kick if you have a fullscreen screenshot. A "FULL screenshot" does not mean just the chat, you must capture everything on your Minecraft screen. You may only kick a player for one(or more if they did multiple things in this list) of the following reasons:
- Player or staff disrespect
- Racism
- Suicide comments (Not Game Related)
- Death threats (Not Game Related)
- Sexual/inappropriate comments
- Accusing of hacks
- Spamming (Must be 4 or more similar messages)
- Excessive cursing (Must contain multiple curse words within the same screenshot)
- Sales advertisement (Talk of selling anything, eg: "Selling my PS3 msg me!")
- Social media advertisement (Twitter, youtube, etc. For Twitch do NOT kick if they are playing on TacoMC)
- Website advertisement (Does not include our own website)
- Server advertisement (Does not include our own server IP)
Things that are NOT kick worthy, this means you warn them. Simply tell them to "Be nice" or treat everyone fairly. If they continue to do so after you have warned them at least 2 times you may kick them. (This rule may be changed in the future)
"eZ"
"rekt"
"gg10"
"shut up"
"you're bad"
"you're annoying"
"you're stupid"
"you're a jerk"
"you're a bad staff member" (Or related comments)
Some of these would be kick worthy if curse words were added, examples:
"You're dumb" is not kickable but "You're fucking dumb" =kickable.
"You're terrible" is not kickable but "You're so fucking terrible LOL" =kickable.
The original posts above are necessarily bad. They are only considered bad when more rage/anger is put behind them.
Mutes:
----------
Mutes are used when we no longer want a player to have access to public chat or private messages. Mutes are issued when a specific number of kicks are reached or if something really bad is said. Your first mute is temporary, but if you're muted again that mute will never expire.
Check THIS page to see the different offenses for each punishment.
Here's a list of how long each mute will last upon your first mute. Again note that any additional mutes will not expire.
Disrespect:
3rd offense: 5 minutes.
4th offense: 15 minutes.
Racism:
3rd offense: 1 hour.
Suicide comments: lifetime
Death threats:
2nd offense: mute for 1 hour.
3rd offense: mute for 2 hours.
4th offense: lifetime mute.
Sexual/Inappropriate comments:
3rd offense: mute for 20 minutes.
Spamming:
4th offense: mute for 20 minutes.
Excessive Cursing:
3rd offense: mute for 10 minutes.
Sales Advertisement:

Website Advertisement:

That is all for this page. This page may be updated as the rules change or if new issues arise. Once again if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to PM one of the staff members. If you see any errors please let me know and I will change them.
