I'm the meanest meany in all of meandom. If ya know what I mean~
Just sayin. Rest of staff is nice.

This is an excellent opportunity for you to get to know XanderO better by VMing with him instead of chatting with him in this feedback thread ;)So I heard you are from Meandom. I'm from Meandom too! :3
This is what bothered me the most. If you've only spoken to Cirno yet, how can you know they dont help out enough, and are looking down upon the others? I spoke with multiple staff members so far, and none of them were looking down upon me and they helped me out with everything I needed. So as Hiroshi said please give some arguments for this.It is just that they need to help out more and not look down apon us. Not being mean.
You have to make an attempt to reach out to the moderators, if you want to know them, just saying. Realize that there are around 50(?) of us, but well over thousands of members. Cirno prides herself in welcoming new users, as that's the position she takes, but the rest of us don't have the time to go to every single new user and make them feel welcome. If you yourself don't take a step to at least conversate with other staff, then you can't really say that we're being superior to you, which we are not.
And to reiterate what Hiroshi said, one does not get banned for no reason. Simply read the rules, and follow the rules. Do that, and you'll be shining brighter than a diamond.
I'm sorry that you feel that way. We will keep trying to act like the regular people we are and not seem like police or high and mighty something, and I hope most members, and you, will think better of us soon! :) the blue username is just so that members who need help can find us easily, so it's a pity if that's part of what's putting you off. If it's rather actual bad behavior you have seen, example would be nice yes so we can know how to not act in the future to make members feel better.Well is both kinds of feedback aloud?
Okay, I feel that the moderators need to be more understanding to new members. I have only met one Moderator (Cinro) who is fair and kind. I don't really feel safe talking to most of them. It is just that I'm afraid they might ban me or something. It is just that they need to help out more and not look down apon us. Not being mean.

It's okay, we're all here to be friendly. Sure we might seem a little strict when we put our moderating caps on, but believe me, the thing we hate doing here the most is having to either ban a member, issue a warning/infraction, or even lock a thread.Well is both kinds of feedback aloud?

Something I posted in the staff lounge recently. The same applies here. However, in saying this, I am going to make more of an effort to post out in the open...you'd just be surprised how much discussion goes on, even to make the small decisions. I admit I get caught up in it, and should do more to post more generally. Either way, I like to think every staff member (whether open on the general forum or not) is doing something to contribute to PC that improves it in some way.I post more in the staff rooms now than I posted on the forums as a normal member. I know we should try connect with members, but hell, I go to university full-time, and work on top of that, as well as enjoying a busy social life. Somehow I still manage a few hours for PC per-day, if I had to also add a larger array of activity on the boards outside of the staff rooms than I do now, I'd explode. I'm not even the busiest on H-staff. Unless you think my activity on the boards is reasonable, otherwise I can see it being a challenge. Not impossible, but certainly an added stress factor.
Just pointing it out, but regular moderator CAN ban people; we just don't have access to custom bans. Anyway, we are mentors. I really hope you don't view us as 'those people who throw around infractions like chicken wings at a party', cause you'll be surprised how many of our mods rarely infract people, if ever. We're here to assist anyone who needs it, albeit we're more inclined to assist in the sections we moderate. I'm glad you've gotten over your paranoia, though. As for the smods, they're essentially global moderators, don't think any differently. They're also cool cats (cept Razor, he's a cool cow), so just be brave and instigate conversation with one of them.
Staff are there to help you, not make you sad. And they are always there if you have any problems so don't hesitate to leave them a message if you need help.
I pose issue with the bolded part here. Take a look at this conversation. Firstly, you asked me to make you a mod, then you asked me to penalize you. I mean, I didn't do either of those things because I was only trying to help you out. Out of all the staff, I'm probably one of the most blunt, but that doesn't mean I don't want to help you out, even after you insulted me. As I know we all have off days, but we can't just project our feelings at other people and try and drag them down.Well I have a real feedback.
Ok here it goes. A lot of you Mods and Gods lol. You do try to help out, but I really still feel as you guys should be mentors instead of infraction people. I understand some people deserve it, but still I like a lot of the everyday mods now you guys n girls are great and I feel good talking to you.
Super Mods: I'm scared of you guys. I just feel nervous and you guys got the power to ban people. Some of you guys are cool and understanding.
Admins never really talked to you guys much so no pros or cons. I'm am trusting you to run this site well so do your thing and make this site the best computer tech can allow. Bye.
