Hello all, Im here to bring you a Discord update. There have been a few changes that I need to share.
Ranks
The ranks for the Discord Staff team have been changed slightly. We now have a system in place: Discord Helper, Discord Moderator, and Discord Admin. When you apply for Discord Staff, you will now be required to start at Discord Helper and move up to Discord Moderator via application (yes you will have to apply for both ranks). Discord Helpers are going to be a new role introduced that acts as a training rank for incoming Discord Staff. This role will have basic perms to help them learn moderation, while Discord Moderator will stay the same as it was. With this addition, pinging Discord Moderator will no longer work, however, the role will be changed to Discord Staff to better reflect this change. Discord Admin (myself), will serve as the lead for the Discord Staff team, and keep the staff team in order. The expectations for these roles can be found here.
Forums
There is now a Ban Request Section on the forums! It was noted that there wasn't one, so with help I went through and made a new section for that with the format thread as well as an archive. Don't forget there is a reporting function on the Discord as well if you don't want to use the forums to make a report.
Issues
The only currently known issue is the bot relay channels not functioning all of the time. Part of this may be the bot being rate limited or issues connecting to the servers, and I will look into it more.
Other
I will be adding a master server info channel to the Discord that will have information about all of the Dink servers and important threads/info for each one. This will be coming soon. Also, I am still encouraging people to apply for Discord Staff as we've had some recent resignations. If you are interested, feel free to apply (making sure you meet requirements and understand the expectations), and if you have any questions, feel free to dm me on Discord (Avi#4653).
