Minehut Community Staff Team 2014-2021
As some of you may be aware, following 9 am PST on May 17th, the staff team as we know it will be dissolved- this means that all current volunteers will have their permissions removed and the Moderator position will become an employed role. The staff team has come a long way following its introduction in 2014, with hundreds of staff members coming and going as time went on, this post is here to recall the contributions the volunteer team has made to Minehut in the past.
For those who aren’t aware of the situation, the volunteer staff team is being removed and replaced with a smaller team of employed Moderators. This change comes from an unexpected start of the year for the team, with the mass resignation on March 8th to now. The team has been under increased pressure from SLG- leading to the unexpected closure of recruitment on April 9th. Following the closure of recruitment, the staff team’s activity began to decline with the senior staff members becoming inactive first, spreading through the rest of the team.
Minehut is a revolutionary service on Minecraft, acting as a place for anyone to come and establish their own server, with its own community that behaves exactly like a normal server- but free. Now, with a service of any kind, you need a dedicated team of people to help moderate it and ensure that it is safe for anyone- this is where the staff team comes into play. The staff team has been at the heart of Minehut since its introduction and will continue to be post-Monday.
Today, I’d like to take the time to thank each and every staff member who has contributed to the staff team in one way or another. We have come so far. From the day that the Mod and Senior Mod ranks were created in January 2016 to today, the staff has come a long way, dealing with constant bot attacks, the data breach and other hurdles- the staff team has somehow survived. Through various sub teams, staff members have contributed so much to Minehut, whether it be through the plugins team, media team, events team, recruitment team, meta team, reports and appeals team and even quality assurance, I'm sure the contributions that we have made to Minehut will go on for years.

rosathorn, Helper "I’m very grateful of all the time I got to spend here. I’ve been apart of Minehut ever since it was a Warzone server, nothing more, finally sometime around a month ago I achieved Helper. Since then I’ve worked hard to maintain my position. While this saddens me I’ll still be active in the community, making servers, and devving for other servers too. Making servers here has not only become a hobby of mine, but a passion over the past 2 years. Minehut also got me into coding around 2 years ago, starting with Skript until I learned more. Thank you Minehut."
Henr, aka Pixelific, Ex-Senior Moderator "remember me"
Jellz, Ex-Senior Moderator "I loved my time on the staff team. Thanks to everyone who made me love it."
