Several people have said most if not all of the points I would like to bring to the table so I will not try to outdo them since they have done a way better job than I can, although with my experiences with you in the community and talking to other people I felt that you put some unwanted pressure in the certain parts of the community and even talked down to some of us, I believe staff should be trusted to de-escalate situations in the community rather than making the community a more stressful or uncomfortable place to be in.

Yeah, must admit I never intended for that to become my motto, it just sorta *did*? - I think me being liked was also because of how I interacted with the rest of the community outside of when I ramped up the heat on people who tried loopholing the rules, which is when the initial "Fuck around and find out" was spoken. I didn't exactly kick down Kenny's NPU Discord Door and demand he hand over all his lunch money, if you get me.

I don't really think the MP Discord Deletion and other scenarios related to witch-hunts and rulings LONG past should weigh heavily on the application itself - I trusted Fel (Like all HAs) with access to a lot of staff and management documents and never deleted or sabotaged those if they argued with me on something. I have no doubt that they are trustworthy with sensitive information.

I reckon the problem is moreso that people haven't seem Fel around enough to make the educated decision of "Yes they have indeed changed", it's very unlikely for a dude to have an iffy reputation, disappear/LOA/resign from staff for personal reasons, come back and then people see them differently.

Edit: There were a few situations where I had made short-lived dumb rulings that the HAs then enforced (Because they were my sweatshop slaves), and then Fel got flak for said enforcement, for some reason, as if people just didn't believe that I could make a mistake, or that Fel was trying to dick down on their player experience intentionally.

I will state this as some of the things above related to "rules" and stuff with enforcements. If I felt like something was a bad call I used to always argue with brand about it. however I would never throw any of the HA's under the bus nor the management for any rulings that came with it. even if I felt it was bad. Alot of the times I would willingly take the flak if it ment others didnt have too. if it was aura, brand or anyone. Who made said bad ruling I would take the blunt force if it ment covering I think a few people here can remember me dodging alot of questions with certain rulings on why they are enforced. Alot of the times whch I know is a bad excuse and bad on my part. was alot of times when I dodged a question regarding ruling as of why is it a rule. It was alot of times I didnt agree with it, or didnt feel the answer would meet well with many. While I may had arguements with many players. I just didnt feel right about throwing the upper into spot light. I aint excusing any actions taken for covering for said situations. I just gotten so much flak for alot of stuff I figured why not just handle a bit more. which again was a piss poor choice on my part. could of went back and think about alot of stuff I did differently. be more communicative. be understanding with certain situations. all that jazz. But in truth wishing for "what ifs' aint gonna fix anything I did. Alot of the times I am on the server (even before I applied on this app) I think the main reason is No one really sees anyone for Numbers until you actually speak up and say "Hey I am this person" obviously it doesnt happen for anyone.
But anyways yeah. I will say this though, Theres alot of things alot of people have unanswered questions too. alot not even im sure I can answer but its just one step at a time and I know that im gonna put in my all for this. whatever you believe is up to you, I cant change what you thought of me back then or how you think I'll handle things now. The best I can do for many of you is just say "hey, I know back then was rough but I wanna change that imagine"

DENIED
This decision was not easily reached. Your reputation is not exactly the most flattering within the staff team. The culminative experiences and the way you handled you handled yourself prior to leaving staff were the main culprits leading to this decision.
You may re-apply in two weeks.
