Staff Rules & Protocols
These are the standards every Obsidian staff member is expected to uphold at all times.
# Staff Code of Conduct
How you act reflects the entire team.
✅ Be professional — Stay calm, fair, and respectful at all times.
🔒 Keep confidentiality — Never leak staff chat, logs, or reports.
🧠 Use common sense — Don’t wait for a rule to think logically.
🚫 No abuse of power — All commands must be used for moderation purposes only.
🗣️ Be approachable — Treat all players with respect, even when they’re wrong.
🤝 Represent Obsidian — You’re the face of the community.
📌 Rule Enforcement Flow
Consistency is key to trust.
Minor rulebreak
/warn <player> <reason>
Give a clear and respectful warning.
Repeated minor offense
/tempmute or /kick
If ignored, escalate without hostility.
Major offense
Escalate to Admin or use /ban
Provide evidence. Permanent bans = Admins+
Chat disruption
/mute or /tempmute
Stop it quickly; log it afterward.
Always use the least necessary force unless the situation demands urgency.
🧾 Logging & Documentation
📷 Screenshot or record chat for serious cases.
📝 Post in #staff-reports or your designated logs channel.
💬 For unclear issues, ping a higher-up or discuss before acting.
🧠 Internal Behavior
❌ Don’t argue in public — keep disagreements inside staff channels.
🔄 Stay active — let us know if you’ll be inactive for a while.
🧩 Help newer staff — your knowledge makes the whole team stronger.
⚠️ Demotion Triggers
Repeated misuse of permissions
Disrespecting staff or players
Inactivity without notice
Breaking rules or leaking info
Refusing to follow protocol
One mistake won’t get you removed. A pattern of them might.
🏁 Final Reminder
You are staff, but you are also a player. Follow the rules. Set the standard.
If you’re ever unsure about a situation:
Ask a senior staff member
Pause and collect evidence
Avoid acting emotionally
