Developer

A Developer is a person who creates solutions to problems. Its role is separate from server staff.

As the term relates to MinecraftOnline, such a person would generally be responsible for writing and maintaining code relating to the functioning of the Minecraft server, or the services which accompany it.

Types of Developer

Java Developer

A Java developer is one who writes code in Java, generally to interface with the Minecraft server directly -- be it in an improvement to the Minecraft server jar itself, or through one of MinecraftOnline's various Plugins.

Script-writer

A script-writer is a Developer who writes code in one or more scripting languages. Common scripting languages used by MinecraftOnline include Python and Bash.

Web Developer

Not to be confused with Spiders. A web developer is a person who creates and maintains web pages and the systems which generate, deliver and display them.

Helping Developers

As a player, you may find yourself in a situation where you have encountered a bug, or at least something you think is a bug. It may be hard to know for sure -- and it may be hard to find out whether the Developers are already aware of it.
