Seeing the constant negativity lately, I really need to remind people that staff are players too. You don't need to agree with every decision they make, but if the way you express it is being a dick to them, that is not okay.
Without staff, the server would be pure chaos. It's NOT A JOB, it's a role. They volunteer their time to help maintain the order of the server, which is frankly NOT FUN AT ALL IN ITSELF. Don't tell them to 'do their jobs' when it's far from a job. A lot of you guys seem to think they are out to get you, that couldn't be further from the truth. Keep in mind if staff were even half as bad as some of you think, you would've been long since banned by them.. Don't ya think..?
More than a few staff have stopped playing partially because some of you make the server unenjoyable with your constant attacks and disrespect towards them. That is not okay, and those of you who continue it will be dealt with by me.
Bottom line: Be respectful to staff members. They are fellow players as well, we're all here for fun, and when you make things not-so-fun by constantly flaming them directly, or through passive aggressive remarks, it's not okay. I think it's healthy for players to not be afraid to state if they are displeased with a decision staff(or myself) has made, but please do so in a more respectful way, and remember staff are not robots. They are people with emotions too. If the way you express yourself involves attacking the person, that's not okay.
I encourage people to come to me or unpoke if they are displeased with a staff member's decisions on something, but please have supporting evidence.
I'd like to end this by thanking our staff members for all of their hard work, and putting up with these people, and my sporadic schedule for things. Even the ones who may not be active anymore, still at one point helped a great deal. We wouldn't be where we are without you guys helping the server out. Even if some players don't appreciate you, just know that I very much appreciate all of you.
