== Structure == | |||
=== Joining process === | |||
Joining the community is done by playing on the servers and optionally creating an account on the forums. | |||
=== User expectations === | |||
The rules for the services Hypixel provides are split between the rules for the Minecraft server generally, for SkyBlock specifically, and the terms of service. Aside from the terms of service, each specific document is minimal with at maximum a dozen explicit actions being stated as prohibited. Thus, it is to be expected that staff have significant latitude in enforcement of server decorum. The terms of service, while applying globally, is generally standard legalese for the providing of an online service. | |||
=== Governance === | |||
As the community makes use of a corporate structure, it is generally unknowable whom exactly has the final decision making power in any given area of influence, as that is not usually made public knowledge - either intentionally or out of a lack of necessity. The organization has also opted to not produce nor allow the production of a comprehensive list of all staff members on their forum. | |||
At time of writing, 2 ranks of staff are known. Administrators are individuals with near unrestricted access to most systems within the area of influence they have, which differs from administrator to administrator. Some are community managers, others network developers, etc. Game masters are individuals who as general community helpers and are split into teams. Some may be assigned solely to answering appeals, others to a specific game on the server, and so on. Both ranks are paid for the work they perform, though the extent of this compensation is obviously unknown. | |||
