Main Roles
Wings of Fire: The New World has three main positions available, those being our Helpers, Moderators (Mods), and Administrators (Admins). These positions are attained either by application or by promotion.
Helper
Helpers…well, help out! Helpers lend a hand around the Discord and Minecraft servers. They can answer technical questions about the server, direct new players around the map, and do a bit of moderating.
Permissions
/editsign
- Allows the user to edit a placed sign with color./mute
- Mute a player for a specified amount of time./nick
- Assigns a player a nickname./seen
- Track when a player was last online./skull
- Give yourself a skull from any player./tps
- View the TPS of the server.- Helpers also may, with supervision, have access to other gamemodes as help on server projects and builds
Selection
Helpers are chosen in two ways. If the admins notice that a player is particularly active, respectful, and familiar with the community and server, they might reach out to the player and ask if they’d like a spot on the team. Helpers are typically chosen if they know a lot about the in-game map and have quite a bit of playtime and messages on the server. Helpers are the only staff member that can be chosen without an application. Helpers also do not have a trial period like moderators and admins.
Alternatively, helpers can be chosen through applications. If staff applications open up, and a certain application shows merit, that person may be chosen to be a helper.
Current Helpers

- Ultra (Ultrapig1)

Moderator
Moderators are responsible for many of the same tasks as Helpers, but with quite a few more technical permissions. They handle moderation on both the Discord and Minecraft servers, including dealing warns, more presence in tickets, and more directly resolving conflicts. They also are able to assist in training new Helpers and Trial Moderators with how to use bot and in-game commands.

Selection
Trial moderators are either chosen through applications or promoted from helper to trial mod. When looking at applications, we look for responsible and respectful players who are active on both servers and are familiar with how Discord works. Being well-spoken with a good reputation also helps, because moderators sometimes have to settle conflicts. No one can ascend directly to moderator; a few months of training are required before being promoted from trial moderator. Moderators must have good judgement and communication skills.

Administrator
Admins are responsible for moderation, technical, and social aspects on both the Discord and Minecraft servers. Their expertise is on the Minecraft server, as they have had at least three months of training in their respective subrole (discussed below!). We are responsible for arranging and hosting major event due to being much more technically capable. Due to our high staff position, we must also offer assistance in helping to train new Helpers, Moderators, and Trial Admins.
Permissions
Administrators are granted all permissions.
Selection
Like moderators, trial admins must have good judgement and communication skills. Trial admins also must be patient and willing to learn and invest a lot of time in the Minecraft server, since training takes a few months. Trial admins are only chosen through applications or promotions. Usually, moderators are promoted to trial admin, but helpers can also be promoted to trial admin on rare occasions.
Trial admins go through a minimum of 3 months of training on the following subjects:
- Discord bot commands
- Player management, diffusing conflicts, handling technical bugs
- Event planning, building, and management
- When and how to use basic commands (teleportation, gamemode switching, tellraw, kicking, muting, banning, inventory checks, effects, setting and deleting player homes, etc.)
- Plugin functions and commands (griefprevention, worldguard regions and flags, economyshop, worldedit, etc.)
- Command Blocks and syntax (impulse/chains/repeating, selector tags, scoreboards, practical uses, etc.)
All trial admins are required to host at least one major event before being promoted to a full admin! The "trial admin event" showcases all of the skills learned during their time in training.
Trial admins are required to be 15+!
