it actually has changed though. at least the last time i checked, there were channels where all staff could talk to each other. those things got more organized once everyone moved to discord

back in the irc days, yeah, it never worked. there was the lmod channel or whatever that was supposed to be used for that purpose and i swear to god i mustve seen 10 messages being sent there throughout all of 2016

if its tyzi ur talking about, i mean, he got smod like a few years after that bullshit went down. im sure that was brought up during the app discussion since everyone knew about it, but it really didnt matter all that much even back then

the "screening process" is very barebones though, i agree. if somebody has been infracted recently it'll be brought up, if somebody has a negative reputation it'll be mentioned, but at the end of the day it's all entirely subjective. i think somebody thats never been staff can see that too, considering that we've had many mischievous users that ended up getting staff at one point or another


i also agree w the points abt circlejerking bc it happens every single time. i feel like the circlejerkish nature of staff can give some of them this very specific brand of arrogance, the same type of smug attitude that's passed on from member to member like generational trauma. i can't really explain it, it's just somethign that u have to witness. and im not just shitting on everyone while excluding myself here; i was like that as well and its very stupid!!

toribash is home to all forms of circlejerks and everyone who has been even tiny bit involved in the game/community knows this

there are some people who intentionally exaggurate the "cirlcjejrrjkk mentality" in forums and in discord for shit and giggles too and thats extremely comedic and i respect that

best is when u get some actual circlejerkist elitist moron hurt by trolling them u can just go along with the arguing and pretend like you care and watch them mald

Wow -- this "circlejerking staff" thing is news to me! Very eye-opening. What a fall from grace the administration has had.

-Higher level staff positions of management is not paid work. If you're not being paid for a job, you're not going to care for the job

-Every generation of staff comes with it's own generations of circle jerks, circle jerks bring tension amongst staff members and promotes hivemind thinking/voting/banning and brown-nosing

-Every generation also has that kiss-ass low level staff member that makes sure to brown nose as much as possible with higher staff to get promoted. That person then has a massively inflated ego and makes everyone else smell their shit in return. You know who you are

-There is never a reliable line of communication between all staff (Don't even try to tell me it's changed) There are like 7 different staff servers, 10 more private servers of the circle jerks listed above, and like 100+ different DMs for every single report/interaction per staff.


-There's no real screening process in regards to hiring staff. Staff literally made someone an admin who faked being a dying 13 year old girl with leukemia


-Politics and Identity politics; I think you fucks should straight up remove your opinions/feelings from the game/forum because no one else in obligated to give a shit or believe what you do





Take what I say with a grain of salt seeing as I was only staff from like 2008 to 2014. There's some diamonds in the rough with the current staff but the games staff has always been pretty garbage.
Hell, when I was admin I couldn't talk to about half the staff because either a bunch of ex-staff (with access to the staff channels still??) would either try to make a ill-intended joke and derail what was trying to be discussed, or they would straight up just harass me/others to the point that we would just ignore/delay whatever was trying to be discussed.


inb4 some old staff tries to make a joke or "stellar spawned items don't listen!"

ironic
