Discord

Assistant

A trusted active player who is knowledgeable about feather64 and willing to help.

Purpose

Assistants help players navigate feather64 — with a focus on the new player experience and server knowledge — and have a seat at the table for staff discussions.

  • Answer questions in chat and in the Discord #ask-a-question channel — proactively, not just when asked directly.
  • Help orient new players; correct misinformation in chat when you see it.
  • Participate in staff channel discussions about server changes and decisions.

Requirements

  • Age. At least 16 years old.
  • Tenure. Played feather64 for several months and intends to keep playing.
  • Knowledge. Familiar enough with feather64's tips, commands, and quirks to answer new-player questions.
  • Community. Active in-game and on Discord, playing as part of the community rather than in isolation.
  • Welcoming. Treats new players as members of the community, not as easy targets for raiding, tricking, or PVP.
  • Respectful. No slurs or excessive harassment.

Rules

  • No trickery. No insiding, fake alliances, or TP tricking. No player should feel tricked by an assistant.
  • No role advantage. Staff access should have no impact on any competitive opportunity to raid, grief, or PVP.
  • No directions. Don't give players directions. Only mods and admins can direct players.

Commands

/tip <tip> <player>Show a detailed tip to a specific player.
/broadcast <tip>Broadcast a short tip to all online players.
/sc <message>Staff-only private chat.
/warp assTeleport to the assistant room.

Perks

  • Blue name Visible in-game and on Discord — easy for new players to spot.
  • Extra homes A higher home cap than the donor max of 5, set with /sethome <name>.
  • Blue item names Color any item name blue by prefixing it with <ass> in an anvil.

Moderator

A trusted player who enforces the rules. Monitors players, investigates reports, and issues bans when warranted.

Purpose

Moderators investigate suspect play, gather evidence, and issue bans when warranted — primarily for hacking.

  • Monitor active play for rule breaking and suspect behavior.
  • Investigate reports and anti-cheat alerts; act on confirmed rule breaking.
  • Participate in staff channel discussions about server changes and decisions.

Rules

  • Privacy. Moderators see private player information and may not share it outside staff channels.
  • No role advantage. Staff access should have no impact on any competitive opportunity to raid, grief, or PVP.
  • No personal records. Player information may not be stored or captured outside official staff channels.
  • No raiding or griefing. Unlike assistants, moderators may not raid or grief other players.

Mod Tools

Tools

  • Vanish Hides the moderator — invisible to players, mobs, and projectiles. Many mod commands require the mod to be vanished.
  • Logging Records every block and item placed, broken, or used on the server. Lookups filter by player, time range, or radius.
  • Ban management Issues, tracks, and reverses bans. Each ban automatically covers the account, current IP, and known alts.
  • Cheat detection In-game and Discord alerts when a player triggers an anti-cheat flag. Anti-cheat never bans players and isn't used as proof alone.

Ban Protocol

Feather64 aims for 100% certainty before every ban.

OffenseDuration
1st ban1–30 days
2nd ban20 days – permanent
3rd banPermanent
4th+ banPermanent (no appeal)

Duration within the range is at moderator discretion. Donors and prominent players receive no lighter sentences. Appeals are administrator-only.

Introduction

Hi, I'm Zerek. I started feather64 in 2011 when I was 15. The server has been my main outlet for learning and growing as a programmer over the years — plugin development, website work, server administration, and a lot of debugging in between. I write the custom plugins running here and built this website. The part I enjoy most, though, is providing a community where people meet and make real friends.
