In Discussion Change to Subteams list

To help explain this idea, I'll create a scenario:

Imagine you're a player that needs to contact a member of the rules committee team, you go to www.mineplex.com/subteams and you start clicking on each profile listed under "Rules Committee" to try and find someone that is online. Instead of having to click on each and every profile, why not just list the staff on that team that are online first? Either in a whole new list altogether or by adding a green "online status" dot to every name. It may look something like this:

 

What’s poppin!

Personally I really like this idea as it will be able to help a lot more people find staff members more easily Incase someone needs to contact them regarding something about a sub team. Also if I could add onto your idea about changing the subteam section I think it would be nice to update the subteam section. For an example include CCC into the Trainee+ subteam as it is a Trainee subteam. There’s probably more such as some outdated subteams and some that aren’t listed.

 

Part of it is to make the subteams page (and as a result the website in general) seem more up to date and modern if that makes any sense?

 

I actually think this would make a fantastic addition for multiple reasons. Personally, when I’m doing appeals, it will usually be for an extended period of time depending on how large the queue is. If someone were to attempt to contact me, as I would be online, I would easily be able to see it. Although I’m technically not on any subteam, it would make everyone’s life easier and would work well for trying to contact any online staff members. I’m all for the addition of this.

 

I really like this idea as it's easier to check for online staff in the sub-team list or, maybe have a "Online staff" list when you're on the main forum page.

But for this idea, I give it a +1

 

I like this. It makes it way more convenient for players to find someone to ask questions to. My only issue is that there are some staff members that simply don't respond to their forum messages, so even if they displayed as online, the players still may not receive responses. As a community member in need, I would suggest finding someone that frequently posts on the forums from the sub-team rather than just anyone. You'll be more likely to get a response that way. Ultimately, I think this should still be implemented because the people that are on the forums more often are more likely to be the ones that are going to respond.

 

Seems helpful,

Yo!

I believe this is a good idea because users are able to go on and see current team members online. But, I mean mineplex.com/staff as a variety of sub teams. But, it could be useful for seeking online team members and making things easier. Anyways, awesome idea and good luck.

 

I am unsure whether this addition would be useful. At least based on the DMs I used to deal with, staff aren't often asked urgent questions on the forums. If it's quick work for the web developers then I have nothing against it, but especially with subteams like RC it doesn't take too much time to view each member's online status (which can be toggled too, by the way).
