Well for me, i really don't have a problem with staff. For me, when i have something that needs updated, or a question it gets asked pretty quickly. Although i do think that updates sit around for a little too long. I've seen some things get passed by for a week or two, before even being replied, but then again things can be overlooked.
I really don't mind that staff let people bash the hell outta the people who get banned, just because in both cases i was around for noone liked them or they had friends but what they did was so bad everyone just went crazy. (Max and Dana). i think someone said this already but it's completely true, that we (as members) will talk about it weather it be on the forums, PM's, or AIM.
To me i think it's more of what Garlic said, two people's thoughts on every issue will always collide. Staff will think one way, while a member will think a different way. With each discussion you will have an agruement just because there are soo many opinions here. For me to sit here and pick out all of staff's problems would be selfish, and childish unless i pointed out certain members and there problems.
Yeah Staff can be intimidating, and i understand why. But overall i think you guys are coming out of a little slump here and doing just fine. People say that burter is a dick, and that people are lazy, but we never see what is going on back stage so we can't judge them. Quite frankly i don't know how burter acts towards others, but he's been very helpful to me and he's never been an ass. You gotta understand that staff are just members too, and they can get as annoyed with what we say as we do with them. It'll be a never ending conflict, that only seems to pop up when something crazy happens, or when a topic goes outta control.
Back when i was Yamcha, i think i PMed HF17 like 5 times a day, and never once got a rude comment. I think it's all about how members go about asking and talking about things. There are hundreds of sides to each staff member, and if you keep picking at them your bound to get a bad one. it's like poking a beehive with a stick, when you get noobs who make three hundred threads a day, your bound to get pissed off.
