The hive already doesn’t pay helpers and helpers don’t really get too many special perks besides a word next to their name and sometimes early access to updates. That’s not even the main point of the rank the point is to help people in the hive
The mini helper rank is not a good idea because it just gives young people who don’t know what they’re doing access to a higher power. It will also make the helper rank seem less valuable if mini helpers can now join at 13. Also, people will go to mini helpers for help and I’m sure 90% of the mini helpers will say “idk ask a mod or something” because they don’t know what their doing. It will also put a lot more stress on mods and helpers because the hive will turn into a day care
Hello, thanks for making a suggestion! The requirement to apply for helper is 15+, as it was decided that this was the age most fit for the role. Helpers as well as moderators do not get paid, as they are volunteer positions. Helpers are there to help, there wouldn’t be much of a need of another role to have responsibilities similar to a helper. There’s currently no plans to add another staff rank to the volunteer team either. Hope this helped clear things up. If you’d ever like to read about staff roles, I recommend give this support page a read: The Hive - Staff Roles
