Helper
From Dogcraft Wiki
[Helper] is a rank on the Dogcraft server. Their role is to help new players on the server. On the server it is represented in chat and on tab by the [Helper] tag, which has the "Helper" text in light red, and the brackets and the player name as light blue. The role was announced on March 17th 2019. It was based on a suggestion from former moderator Lt_Col_Cubed, after which the Headmods developed the rank into what it is today. While [Helper] is a seperate rank, they are not part of Dogcraft Staff.
Purpose
The purpose of this rank is to grant players who the staff have observed to be very helpful in the community the ability to help players with basic tasks. The tasks include helping new players to link, showing them around, helping them with commands and overall provide general information about the server. Every month, 3 helpers are selected by the Headmods, usually on the first of the month, and otherwise a few days later if there's any delay. It is important to note that this is not a staff rank, it is a title. The Head Moderators introduced this rank to take some of the workload off the moderators, especially in busy times such as when Rendog is streaming on the server. If there are issues, people should contact the server staff team.

Selection process
Helpers are proposed to the Headmods by other members of the Staff team, who observe regular players to be especially helpful. Based on these suggestions, the Headmods choose the 3 Helpers for the next month, and contact them to ask if they're interested. Direct requests from players to become Helper do not influence the selection process, and may have an adverse effect. To have a chance, one has to be a consistently helpful member of the Dogcraft community. Occasionally a second term can be granted to Helpers for various reasons.
