How about you post up a few paragraphs about your qualifications, Thomas?
In my opinion, staff members aren't machines. They're a big member of the cB community as a whole and, while they have a responsibility, they still need to keep up their characters and be a human. True, sometimes they'll have to do something they don't want to do, but does it mean they have to "show no remorse"? No offense, but you strike me as a sort of bland member of this community and as someone who's been in and out of cB and seen it change/rotate staff for over four years, I don't think you would make a good staff member. While I do think that staff members should be professional, I think they should first and foremost be people. Not ban/warn/feel-no-remorse machines. There's my professional opinion. |

How long does it take to reach a decision about who to add and who not to? I mean, you guys have had a few days to think this through.

Thomas, I don't understand why you think previously having held the title of staff member makes someone qualified to again hold that title. They obviously left for a reason. You don't only say this about yourself, but you just said it about Anastasia up there ("she knows what she's doing, she can do the job, mostly becuase she's done it alrady"). Why do you think just because they've done it once they can do it again, when they left because something was wrong?
I was a staff member way the hell longer than you were, and I am in no way qualified to be one again right now. I'm not at all committed to this site and I only come around when I have nothing better to do. I really don't care at all and would probably step down within a month due to the apathy and constant rolling of eyes over Backstage nonsense. So, clearly, not a reason to hire someone. |

I think Thomas fails at seeing that no one really wants him on staff.
That is MY professional opinion. kthanxbye |

This is the first time I've fully read your posts. I tend to skip it b/c I don't like the small font, but I actually took the time to read it this time. And that was pure ownage I would say.

QUOTE(doublehelix @ Apr 21 2008, 11:18 PM) However, I think that when someone is ready to be back on staff, and willingly puts themself into a hiring thread, to be back on staff. they are telling everyone that they will uphold their commitment. That is completely false, especially after your second falling out when I was on staff with you. You didn't uphold any commitment and blamed it on other people. Why on earth would they give you a third chance if you bitch and then cause a scene when you leave? |

I feel a bit awkward here stepping into this topic due to my slight couple-week-long inactivity-ness but after reading through these posts I'm just going to state that I agree a thousand percent with what Ersatz stated up there. If my memory retracts correctly, this isn't the first time you've stepped out an opinion almost exactly like this, Thomas. And uh, since I don't want to ramble on and on here, I'm just going to say that it's not that I/we don't hate you but it's just that I think you need to neutralize your opinion to the furthest extent. Sorry, but I just don't think your words are cutting it through people's minds.  That's all.

Thomas, I know I asked you for your qualifications, but I'm beginning to realize that the more you type/ramble, the more I stand by my original standpoint that you don't really seem like someone who'd be effective on staff. Sorry, but that's just my (professional) opinion.

YOU WERE GONE FOR ALMOST A MONTH! THAT IS NOT A COMMITMENT!
You've gotten 2 chances. Both times you've stepped down. Both times you took a hiatus because you didn't want to be around/deal with drama. Why is this different? |

lol I remember when I was gone for a month and got demoted to mentor and then to official member. I hardly had any internet access and I was out of town that whole summer (2006-ish, I believe). Regardless, I know the people who were on staff with me at that time must've been really disappointed in me and in no way do I think that I deserve to be automatically be on staff again just because I was admin before.
