RIZZASTERWhitelist and How to Join
/archive/schematics/plugins/ · last edited 13 Dec 2021 · Partnerships
A few months ago, the server experienced a spike in unwanted users joining the game, leading to disruptions in chat, inappropriate behavior, and general chaos. It became clear that the existing setup wasn't sufficient to keep the community safe and welcoming for kids and teenagers. The lack of a formal whitelist process meant that anyone could join without any verification or oversight, which made it difficult for moderators to manage the growing number of users effectively.
In response, the moderators implemented a new whitelist system. This requires all new players to request access through a designated in-game form or a secure, private channel. Each request is reviewed by at least two moderators before approval. This ensures that only individuals who meet the community guidelines and are appropriate for the server's age group are allowed in. The process also includes a brief orientation for new players, explaining the rules and expectations.
Since the changes were made, the server has seen a marked improvement in behavior and overall user experience. The number of disruptive incidents has dropped significantly, and the community feels more controlled and respectful. The whitelist has also helped in creating a more stable environment where players can interact without fear of encountering harmful or inappropriate content. While the process takes a little longer for new players, it has been well received by the majority of the community and is considered a necessary step for maintaining a safe and fun space.
