Hey Guys! I Was Hoping To Look For People To Run My Server A Bit As I Am Not That Experienced In PEX And Possibly Other Plugins That I Should Get/Have. If You Would Like To Become A Mod Or Builder On My Server, Just Give Me A Little Bit Of Info And You Can Use This As A Template (But Add More If You Want):

I hate to be a prick, but capitalizing every letter does not look âofficialâ or professional, I just think you should be aware⌠so you donât fall into that rabbit hole.
Furthermore, why donât you take the time to learn how to properly configure plugins yourself? Especially now, there is a plethora of information/tutorials on Youtube (for bukkit) that are helpful for new server administrators. I would use that as a guide to get the feel for it, but most plugins have decent documentation that will likely be more helpful for proper configuration.
That Is Your Opinion, Which is Different From Mine.
I Will Take The Time To Learn How To Use Them But I Would Like Someone With Experience To Take Control For Now So I Could Learn Their Ideas So I Could Organize My Server In Favor Of Player Comfort So I Would Appreciate It If You Refrain From Negatively Altering The Atmosphere Of This Thread
It makes it difficult for people to read. Iâm not joking, I actually skipped through your words because i didnât care to spend extra effort trying to read the caps.
If you want to seem official, feel free to write business letters or something.
Or you could lookup MLA and APA style guides for capitalization. That always works.
Oh yeah, before I forget, use proper grammar too. If english isnât your native language thatâs okay, but at least TRY to avoid run on sentencesâŚ
Ya Know What? Ill Just Post A Thread Else Where. I Might Actually Get Replies On What Iâm Actually Looking For There. Thanks For, At Least, Noticing This One.
No, that is not my opinion, itâs proper grammar.
Fair enough, youâre likely going to get the same responses âelsewhereâ.
Iâd like to know⌠what is the atmosphere of this thread?.. to me it seems like someone refusing pretty decent advice⌠Contention certainly wasnât my motive here.
Although That Is True, I Just Like Typing Like That So I Can Be Myself If I Want To.
I Canât Really Explain The Atmosphere Of This Thread Other Than Negative And Focused On Correcting Me Other Than Actually Applying To Be Part Of My Serverâs Staff
Even If I Donât Like How This Thread Is Going, I Have Refrained From Typing Like This Alot And So I Guess Ill Start It Here To So, I guess I should say thanks for that. Bye guys.
I really donât believe youâre 15. Iâd place my bets on you being 11 or younger. No one wants to join your server. Everyone here is being polite. But Iâm realistic; youâre ignorant and lack common knowledge/sense. No one wants to join an 11 year oldâs server as staff.
What he means is that youâve made a bad first impression, and people are going to avoid helping since you havenât shown yourself to be a respectable person.
It doesnât matter how old you are. The fact is that youâve ACTED like youâre 11.
If you acted like you were 21, people would have been a lot more likely to help you.
Just a few tips for you on how to make a post look professional. I am not being negative, I am giving you constructive criticism. If you choose to ignore it, then itâs your loss.
Rule number one for making something professional is to use proper punctuation. Writing Like This Makes You Look Less Professional Because It Displays A Lack Of Knowledge Of Basic English That You learn When You Are 6. Also learn where to use commas, and use full stops at the end of sentences.
People who are professional gladly take constructive criticism. Your complete ignorance of other peoples advice, taking non-hostile advice as people âTrying to bring you downâ is both childish and insulting. These people arenât trying to bring you down, they are doing the exact opposite. If someone gives you advice to help you succeed and you s*** on them for it, that shows that you have an âIâm right, nobody else isâ attitude which comes across as unprofessional.
If someone calls your professionalism into question, donât do a âI THINK IâM PROFESSIONAL NOBODY CAN BRING ME DOWN!â Provide some evidence in yet again a calm and professional manner to prove them otherwise.
@gravityfox is right. The way you behaved makes you seem like a child. Your behavior was very tantrum-like. If you act childish, you will be taken as one.
Here is how I would have made the same post.
Hi everybody,
I am looking for help with managing my Minecraft server, and would appreciate any help.
Duties may include:
Permissions and plugin setup
Building
Moderating
If you are interested in a position on my staff team, then please leave your IGN, your age, and any skills that may > help you in your position
Regards,
~GeneralBones
Also learning server management skills before opening to the public will be of great help to you. Itâs fair enough having someone to share the load with, but if you are going to open a server with volunteers doing everything for you, and you just reap the benefits, that is unfair.
