    Skully got a reaction from Lil222 in Applying for Staff at UltraNetwork   
    We have seen a recent rise in the usage of generative AI to produce answers to the questions within the staff application, this low-effort behaviour will deem your application as non-genuine and result in a permanent blacklist from ever applying to the staff team again.
    We use a variety of methods and tools to validate the contents of every staff application to a high level of accuracy, any applications that are not genuine, plagiarized, or low effort will be immediately denied.

    Hi there!

    I'm here to assist and give out some information to anyone who has previously applied to be a member of staff at UltraNetwork, or anyone who is interested. Being a part of our staff team is greatly rewarding, especially for those who strive to help others.

    The UltraNetwork Staff Team
    As the manager of the staff team, it's my job to ensure that we induct people with a genuine interest in helping other players, people who have a clean history and those who are known within the server for being generous and simply a down to earth person. There's a lot of things that go into play when a staff member is being chosen, to this date we have received over fourty thousand applications, and less than thirty players have ever been accepted. We hold one of the highest standards you'll come across in any server and this is simply to ensure we provide the best experience for our players. At any given time, you can view who is in the staff team by checking the Staff Roster. (This is also available to visit from the navigation bar above the forums.)

    Joining The Team - Minimum Requirements
    Step one comes with getting passed the initial review, this consists of making sure you meet the initial application requirements, these are visible at the top of the application form itself though a lot of people seem to completely ignore them. Half of the applications we receive don't even meet the minimum requirements and immediately get denied.
    You MUST meet the following requirements in order to become a staff member:
    You must be fluent in English. You must have a minimum of 48 hours played on the server. (Check your play time with /pt) You must have not been banned from the server within the last twelve months. You must not have received any punishments within the last six months. You must be an active player. You must be willing to use Discord. You must have a relatively clean punishment history. (/history in-game) You must be present in our Discord server. Do you meet all the requirements? Good! Let's proceed.


    Joining The Team - Application Tips
    Question Responses
    The next part is to ensure your application is actually something that we'll want to read. We receive roughly five applications every day, so you need to do your best to ensure YOUR application strands out. Avoid writing generic sentences such as:
    "I want to join the team to help players" or "I am good at finding hackers".

    A more appropriate approach would be:
    "I strive to assist other players and gain personal motivation and a sense of achievement from helping and teaching newcomers."

    With a sentence like the one above, you've already demonstrated you're passionate about genuinely helping players and teaching new members in the community.

    When talking about your previous experience, it's important to mention your role in any other server you've moderated for, how long you were a part of the team and why you left. Evidence of being a part of a team is also quite strong to prove that you do in fact have previous moderation experience.
    Be sure to provide detailed answers with a good usage of grammar and punctuation to demonstrate your level of English!
    Providing a simple one sentence answer to a question on a staff application and is the primary reason why a large number of applications are denied - if you aren't willing to sit and answer a question with detail and good explanation, then you probably aren't right to be joining a staff team where you will be tasked with helping players daily.

    Situational Questions
    There are questions on the application which look for your input and opinions as to how you would resolve a few situations. Be honest and respond to them with your personal opinion! There is no wrong answer, we aim to find out how you think in certain situations and what sort of approach you take as a person to resolve conflict.

    Grammar & Language
    It's extremely important that you can demonstrate you have a basic understanding of the English language, along with grammar. This means putting full stops and commas where they belong. If you don't know what any of this means then I'm sorry to say you're probably not old enough to apply - you should probably get off Minecraft and go study for English class.

    Lacking grammar and showing broken English or incorrect sentence structures can result in denial because we require members who have the basic ability to communicate effectively and clearly, this comes especially important in a support and assistance environment like being a staff member since you'll be constantly answering questions.

    Activity Within Server
    We always look for key members who we know from the server, players who's names pop up in the chat every now and then. A plus if you're frequently helping players who have questions, this helps you stand out alot more. If you think being helpful only when a owner is online to slip past this will help you, it won't. We're online a lot of the time, and primarily invisible to online players, especially myself.

    Asking About Your Application
    It is crucially important that you don't do this. You may be curious regarding the status of it, and this is normal but with the tons of applications received on a daily basis, we don't want to constantly check people's applications whenever they ask us. No matter how good your application may be, if you ask about it - we'll probably deny you since it displays your lacking patience. Applications are always reviewed, just be patient. In rare cases, applications may be left unreviewed for a week, though this only occurs in the event that we receive a large amount of them at once.
     
    Joining The Team - Background Check
    Your application itself is only the start of the process. If you get passed the basic application and we like what we see, the background check begins.

    This consists of the following:
    A basic check to ensure your application isn't copied from somewhere else. If we find your application is copy/pasted then you will be permanently denied from ever applying again so think twice.
      We double check to ensure the information in your application is true. This means a check of your actual play time, and player history. If you have been banned before then you have a lower chance of being accepted though this depends entirely on how many bans you have and how long ago they were issued.
      We run logs on your recent and previous chat history to see what kind of a player you are, and what kind of interactions you uphold with other players - do you come out as helpful, do you talk a lot and do you use a decent level of English?
      The applicant is voted on internally by management and further reviewed by administrators and moderators if additional opinions are required - we get feedback from our current active staff members to tell us what they know about you. (Another reason why you should be nice and compliant to our staff. )
      A final review to ensure all information provided and votes are genuine. At any point within this application if there are mismatches or any questions we may have, you may be asked to conduct an interview over Discord. A interview is extremely rare though if it occurs, you'll be asked basic questions regarding your application and about yourself. This can be done over text or voice depending on whatever you're comfortable with.  

    That's it! You have all the tips and advice you need in order to successfully join the staff team! If you follow these instructions accordingly in your next staff application, you should see yourself being a part of the Helper Team in no time.

    Lands - A Complete Guide
    Protection, Claiming, Roles, Areas, Wars & More!
    Skip to F.A.Q
     
    The Lands feature within survival allows you to claim land within the world and protect it from other players! Survival multiplayer is primarily all about teamwork, and with the help of the Lands you can completely customize your own land by adjusting your land settings, create custom roles and setup individual permissions per role, invite and manage members, communicate with your friends via land chat, create multiple sub-areas within your land and assign it to specific players, and a ton of other awesome capabilities!
    This topic overviews all of these features and how you can make the most of them, please read this thread before going on to ask staff members for any questions or assistance.
     
    Land Creation & Management (/land help)
    To begin claiming, you need to first create your land. You can do this using the /land create [Name] command. The name you provide will be the name of your land - don't worry if you're unsure what to call it, you can always rename it later!
    Once your Land has been created, you can begin customizing it with the /land menu. This will be the primary interface where you manage anything and everything related to your lands, members and areas.
     
    Claiming Land
    You've created your land, great! Now to claim some space so you can begin building up your empire!
    Land claiming can be done in two ways:
    Automatic Chunk Claim Claiming Tool Automatic Chunk Claim
    You can use the /claim command to quickly and easily claim the chunk you are currently standing in. A chunk is a 16x16 block square that Minecraft uses across the world, you can press the keys F3 + G to enable the ability to see chunk borders, this allows you to see an outline of all the chunks nearby. When you make a claim, you will notice red barrier blocks will become visible in your current chunk - this is now your land!
    NOTE: These barriers are not actually there and only are visible to you and others that have enabled /land view.

    Claiming Tool
    Upon joining the server, you will have received a Claim Tool (Golden Shovel).
    You can obtain this again at any time should you happen to lose it, using the /kit claimtool command.
    If you prefer to claim a specific area rather than a whole chunk, you can use the claim tool to make a selection. In order to do so, simply left click with the shovel on a block where you want the first corner to be, and right click in the opposite corner of the area.
    Once you do so, use /claim to claim the land, and you'll see a similar border of barriers appear. Keep in mind that you must be at least 2 chunks away from other lands in order to make a claim, to view nearby lands you can enable /land view to see a barrier border of all lands, or get a map in your chat using /land map.

    Creating & Claiming Sub-Areas
    A sub-area is a specific selection within your already claimed land, sort of like a land-in-land! You can create a subarea in the /land menu by navigating to Areas and then clicking on Create Area, a small green plus icon. You will then be asked to provide a name for this area, you can do so by then inputting the name you want to use in chat. (Spaces are not allowed in area names!)
    Once you create the area, it will require setup. This means it hasn't been assigned to a selection within your land yet. This can be done by making a selection using either your claiming tool or /land selection, once you choose both corners of where your want your subarea to be, use /land selection assign [Sub-Area], this will assign your selection to the subarea you made.
    Areas are extremely useful for cases where you have multiple members within your land, and you want to create specific permissions to close off a specific part of the land to certain members or just yourself. You can then also set up permissions so that only a selected role can open and close doors, open chests, etc.
     
    Roles
    By default, there are four roles in every land upon creation:
    Owner
    This role is given to the land owner and cannot be deleted. It has all of the permissions required to do everything related to management within the land, such as claiming, setting up permissions, areas and roles. The owner can can create more new roles and adjust them accordingly as well.
      Admin
    The admin role is a base role you can give out to trusted members of your land. You can set this role up to have semi-management capabilities if you like, such as being able to claim land on the owners behalf, or invite other members.
      Member
    The member role is the base role which is given to a member when they are first trusted into a land. Whatever permissions you setup here will apply to all new members.
      Visitor
    This role is assigned to anyone who enters your claims though isn't a part of your land and are not a member. You can adjust the default permissions of what visitors can and cannot do when they enter, such as being able to open containers, break blocks, etc.
    Adjust this role carefully! It is recommended you do not give this role the ability to break or place blocks as this can result to griefing.
    Inviting Members
    To add someone to your land once you have created it, use /trust [Player] (Area), if you specify an area, then the player will also be added to that area. To remove a member, use /untrust [Player], or to ban someone entirely from your area, you can use /land ban [Player] (Area).
     
    Wars (/war help)
    A great way to experience PvP in survival is to initiate wars! This allows you to go into battle against other lands, which can either simply be for the experience of PvP, or money! To initiate a war, both of the lands involved must agree to do so. You can declare war against a land using /war declare [Land], this will send a request to the specified land to either accept or deny.
    Before declaring war, you can choose to offer a tribute to whoever wins in the war, this can be done in the initial war declaration interface which appears when you declare war against another land. If you'd rather just declare war for the battle, you can choose not to add a one and simply send the request.
    Once the request is sent, the opposing land will receive it and can choose to accept or deny it - this means players cannot randomly declare war against anyone, it must be a mutual agreement to go to war! When the opposing land accepts, the war is then created and starts officially after a two minute cooldown. A war lasts 48 hours from the time that it was accepted, however it can be ended earlier if either land surrenders.
    The land who initiated and sent the original war declaration is referred to as the Attackers, and the land who received the request are referred to as the Defenders.
    Winning A War
    A war can be won by having the most kills before the war ends, you can see how much time is remaining in a war using the /war menu.
    Once a war has started, you are given a few extra permissions on the opposite land, such as being able to enter even if they normally don't allow it, and the ability to attack players in their land. Use this to your advantage against the enemy land and make sure you prepare for this yourself beforehand!
    A good idea is to build up some fortifications and set your spawn positions to places that are safe and away from the enemy so they cannot instantly kill you. (/pvp can still be disabled!)
    You are also granted the special permission to place scaffolding within the opposing land in order to avoid traps and climb over obstacles, remember to prepare for this too within your land! Enclose off areas so that the enemy cannot get into buildings and areas you don't want them to - don't worry, neither land is allowed to interact with containers, doors, trap doors, etc.
    Once the war comes to an end, the land with the most kills is crowned the winner and receives the war tribute, if one was set. You can also win if the enemy land decides to surrender.
    War Shields
    War shields prevent lands from being able to declare war on others, and other lands from declaring war against you. When you first create your land, you are given a war shield of 3 hours. After a war ends, you are given a shield of 12 hours, unless you surrendered in which case the shield is 1 day.

    ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY

    The Zero Tolerance Policy, or ZTP for short, has been effectively put into place to give players who have a large punishment history a final chance to prove themselves being able to behave and follow the server rules. It serves as a rule placed upon them in which if they violate any server rule, be it a minor one or not, they will be community blacklisted - this results in a permanent ban from all servers, the Discord server and forums. Any player banned under ZTP will not be allowed to return to the server. If a player is taken off ZTP,  they will continue to be placed under limitations such as being unable to apply for any staff position.

    I'm currently banned and would like to be placed under the ZTP.
    If you have been banned for violating the server rules, you may make an appeal and request to be unbanned explaining how you intend to act differently and acknowledge that you have read the server rules. It must be evident and made clear within your appeal that you will continue to behave if you are unbanned. Players who have been banned within the last 30 days are not eligible to appeal their ban and request to be placed under the ZTP.

    This does not always result in an unban, it is left at the discretion of administrators and owners whether you will be allowed back on to the server and given a second chance. Your appeal may be denied once again if we feel you are not being genuine or have not displayed enough effort to show you will make an attempt in not breaking the rules once again.
     
    What do I do if I have been notified that I am now under the ZTP?
    Your behaviour will continuously be monitored by the staff team at random times to ensure that you are following all server guidelines and not violating any of the server rules. This serves as a final warning and if you violate any server rule (this includes chat related offenses that would normally warrant a mute), you will be removed from the community and not allowed to return.
    You will not be given the option to appeal the ban.

    How do I get off the ZTP?
    Over the period of a few months, if you have demonstrated that you can behave and have not violated any server rules, your activity will be reviewed and the possibility of being taken off the ZTP will be taken into consideration. However this does not mean that you are free to break rules again, a player previously on ZTP who breaks rules again is just as likely to be put back on to it.

    Skully got a reaction from Purpose_Life in Applying for Staff at UltraNetwork   
    Hi there!

    I'm here to assist and give out some information to anyone who has previously applied to be a member of staff at UltraNetwork, or anyone who is interested. Being a part of our staff team is greatly rewarding, especially for those who strive to help others.

    The UltraNetwork Staff Team
    As the manager of the staff team, it's my job to ensure that we induct people with a genuine interest in helping other players, people who have a clean history and those who are known within the server for being generous and simply a down to earth person. There's a lot of things that go into play when a staff member is being chosen, to this date we have received over fourty thousand applications, and less than thirty players have ever been accepted. We hold one of the highest standards you'll come across in any server and this is simply to ensure we provide the best experience for our players. At any given time, you can view who is in the staff team by checking the Staff Roster. (This is also available to visit from the navigation bar above the forums.)

    Joining The Team - Minimum Requirements
    Step one comes with getting passed the initial review, this consists of making sure you meet the initial application requirements, these are visible at the top of the application form itself though a lot of people seem to completely ignore them. Half of the applications we receive don't even meet the minimum requirements and immediately get denied.
    You MUST meet the following requirements in order to become a staff member:
    You must be fluent in English. You must have a minimum of 48 hours played on the server. (Check your play time with /pt) You must have not been banned from the server within the last twelve months. You must not have received any punishments within the last six months. You must be an active player. You must be willing to use Discord. You must have a relatively clean punishment history. (/history in-game) You must be present in our Discord server. Do you meet all the requirements? Good! Let's proceed.


    Joining The Team - Application Tips
    Question Responses
    The next part is to ensure your application is actually something that we'll want to read. We receive roughly five applications every day, so you need to do your best to ensure YOUR application strands out. Avoid writing generic sentences such as:
    "I want to join the team to help players" or "I am good at finding hackers".

    A more appropriate approach would be:
    "I strive to assist other players and gain personal motivation and a sense of achievement from helping and teaching newcomers."

    With a sentence like the one above, you've already demonstrated you're passionate about genuinely helping players and teaching new members in the community.

    When talking about your previous experience, it's important to mention your role in any other server you've moderated for, how long you were a part of the team and why you left. Evidence of being a part of a team is also quite strong to prove that you do in fact have previous moderation experience.
    Be sure to provide detailed answers with a good usage of grammar and punctuation to demonstrate your level of English!
    Providing a simple one sentence answer to a question on a staff application and is the primary reason why a large number of applications are denied - if you aren't willing to sit and answer a question with detail and good explanation, then you probably aren't right to be joining a staff team where you will be tasked with helping players daily.

    Situational Questions
    There are questions on the application which look for your input and opinions as to how you would resolve a few situations. Be honest and respond to them with your personal opinion! There is no wrong answer, we aim to find out how you think in certain situations and what sort of approach you take as a person to resolve conflict.

    Grammar & Language
    It's extremely important that you can demonstrate you have a basic understanding of the English language, along with grammar. This means putting full stops and commas where they belong. If you don't know what any of this means then I'm sorry to say you're probably not old enough to apply - you should probably get off Minecraft and go study for English class.

    Lacking grammar and showing broken English or incorrect sentence structures can result in denial because we require members who have the basic ability to communicate effectively and clearly, this comes especially important in a support and assistance environment like being a staff member since you'll be constantly answering questions.

    Activity Within Server
    We always look for key members who we know from the server, players who's names pop up in the chat every now and then. A plus if you're frequently helping players who have questions, this helps you stand out alot more. If you think being helpful only when a owner is online to slip past this will help you, it won't. We're online a lot of the time, and primarily invisible to online players, especially myself.

    Asking About Your Application
    It is crucially important that you don't do this. You may be curious regarding the status of it, and this is normal but with the tons of applications received on a daily basis, we don't want to constantly check people's applications whenever they ask us. No matter how good your application may be, if you ask about it - we'll probably deny you since it displays your lacking patience. Applications are always reviewed, just be patient. In rare cases, applications may be left unreviewed for a week, though this only occurs in the event that we receive a large amount of them at once.
     
    Joining The Team - Background Check
    Your application itself is only the start of the process. If you get passed the basic application and we like what we see, the background check begins.

    This consists of the following:
    A basic check to ensure your application isn't copied from somewhere else. If we find your application is copy/pasted then you will be permanently denied from ever applying again so think twice.
      We double check to ensure the information in your application is true. This means a check of your actual play time, and player history. If you have been banned before then you have a lower chance of being accepted though this depends entirely on how many bans you have and how long ago they were issued.
      We run logs on your recent and previous chat history to see what kind of a player you are, and what kind of interactions you uphold with other players - do you come out as helpful, do you talk a lot and do you use a decent level of English?
      The applicant is voted on internally by management and further reviewed by administrators and moderators if additional opinions are required - we get feedback from our current active staff members to tell us what they know about you. (Another reason why you should be nice and compliant to our staff. )
      A final review to ensure all information provided and votes are genuine. At any point within this application if there are mismatches or any questions we may have, you may be asked to conduct an interview over Discord. A interview is extremely rare though if it occurs, you'll be asked basic questions regarding your application and about yourself. This can be done over text or voice depending on whatever you're comfortable with.  

    That's it! You have all the tips and advice you need in order to successfully join the staff team! If you follow these instructions accordingly in your next staff application, you should see yourself being a part of the Helper Team in no time.

    We are aware of the current state of the scoreboard and working to resolve it as soon as we can, the statistics are outdated in some cases and a new improved scoreboard will be implemented whenever our priority allows us to do so.
