Hello! No, an ingame donator rank is not required to become a staff member. However, to be able to access the application, you must have at least 50 accepted player report tickets, your account linked to your forums profile (use /link in the lobbies), at least 20 messages, and have had your account on the forums for at least 45 days. If you would like to see what else is required, along with what they are looking for, I'd suggest reading this thread: https://mccentral.org/community/threads/guide-to-achieve-helper.37132/ Hope this helps, have a great day!
