This is the core staff role in our organization: All staff members have the Helpers role.
In general, being a helper means that you provide substantial help for the server's function, and have a good understanding of the culture and rules of the server.
Helpers assist in the help channels, demonstrate proficiency in the language, and have strong teaching and explanation skills. Otherwise they might assist in other areas of the organization, such as being a core developer, events team member, or moderator.
Being a helper is also more than just quantity of messages, it's about quality. We watch and we pick these people out of the crowd, because we believe that they're a valuable asset to the community, and want our users to know that they're someone that can be relied on for answers and help.
FAQ
There is no application, and there are no public nominations. Staff keep an eye out for potential candidates, and people nominated (by staff) are put in a pool for evaluation. After a period of time the candidate for a certain role is voted on by staff higher up the hierarchy.
See the description of a Helper. Being active in helping others, providing good help, contributing to our projects, and abiding by our rules go a long way towards catching staff attention, and make the server a better place for both beginners and advanced Python devs.
