Staff Team

The staff team is a multilevel team made up of players within the community who volunteer their free time to ensuring the smooth running of the server. Their main roles include moderation on all RPUK platforms, forum administration, assisting players and managing events.

Organisational Structure

The staff team is made up of 5 key roles and 1 internal role, identified by their tags on TeamSpeak. The system we use has a rank structure in the form of levels, all new staff join at level one and as they gather experience over the course of time they are moved up the levels at the discretion of the staff leads, which gives them access to a wider array of administrative tools enabling them to deal with a larger number of issues, as well as being given a larger number of responsibilities.
