Staffing Departments
In order to effectively maintain the Omniverse and ensure that every member of staff has an opportunity to let their particular skillset shine, the duties here will be split apart into various ‘Departments’ (or Teams). Each Department will specialize in a particular aspect of the website, whether that’s handling Move Approvals, grading threads, or performing OM updates. Departments will also have short- and long-term objectives they will work on to improve their aspects of the website. Departments will have one or two Team Leads who head them up and are responsible for helping out their Team Members.
READING/GRADING - Luci (Team Lead)
This Department is the people who love to read, have the time to read, and who will be impartial in how they assess bonuses in the Bonus Request thread. They must also be willing to serve as Judges for PvP when requested.
MOVES - Daniel (Team Lead) and Wyatt & Ezhriel & Demetri
This Department will be behind the Move Approval thread, which everyone here ever understands is its own endeavor at times. This Department also handles issues of balancing in regards to other aspects of the system like Powers and Proficiency.
JOINING - ElFailzalot (Team Lead) and Yuuka Kazami & Civic & the Vision
This Department deals with Join Apps. They must be personable and willing to help prospective members who may be young or non-native English speakers. You will also be responsible for NPC Approvals, because they often take the same form as Join Apps. Team Leader will have ACP access to edit user names to process switches. Any complex Moves should be passed over to the Move Approval thread.
STORYTELLER - Blink and The Humble Sage (Co-Leads)
This Department will head up the Storyteller account, which entails responding to IC events and/or being willing to write NPC vignettes. These Team members will also work with Alex to keep all the Info Threads up-to-date. In the event that Quests return, these members will be responsible for content creation in that realm.
Other:
Some staffers may have additional authority in certain areas, usually off the boards but still dealing with growth and development of the website.
Information Technology and Maintenance (Trixie/WhateverJoesAltIsAtTheGivenMonth)
Responsible for helping oversee maintenance of the board and coordinating upgrades and new features. Helps ensure that Alex won't blow something the heck up and be unable to piece it back together. If there's a serious tech bug or issue you come across, make sure Alex and Joe are made aware of it.
Public Relations (Jade/Pennywise/Ada)
Jade is an editor on the Omniverse Facebook, and she is also a point person for advertisement and any sort of community growth or outreach we may do here.
Alex (Proto Man/Shang Tsung/Android 17)
While his passion has always been serving as a glorified 'Loremaster' for the in-character realm, Alex has the final say on new rulings and judgement, implementations, et cetera and handles all staff hiring and other things related to Staff Team.
Angels
Angels are our senior-most staff members. They are confident in a wide range of the site's workings and can exercising authority in many of its systems.
Cherubs
Cherubs are a step up from sprites with an additional level of trust and responsibility. Along with all the Sprite powers, they can edit omnilium and some may have additional perms to edit users and forums.
Sprites
Sprites are a basic step up from members for those who wish to help the site out. They are staff members who are focuses in one area of the website, hopefully one where they feel comfortable and confident. They can use the Mod CP, which means they can approve edits and do various board-level moderation tasks as well as help moderate the Discord and chatbox.
Members
Members can make suggestions for content, rulings and storylines up to any level of detail. They can act as judges for fights if agreed upon by both participants of a fight, or a majority from each side. They can run storylines and sagas - though "far-out" ideas such as the use of an original location or pocket verse with unique physics/rules, the rewarding of OM or artefacts, or involvement of site NPCs must be approved by Alex. They can nominate other members for exceptional bonuses, answer questions in the quick questions topic, and give general advice if they are confident to do so.
