my input/perspective as an active community member and as a pretty new moderator:
Some of those screenshots are from when I very recently joined the staff team, so I remember seeing their conversation , but as a Trusted and new staff member I didn't really have the confidence or know-how of how I could maybe confront the issue, so I let it slide. Hopefully that's an acceptable reaction as it's not like I wanted to start a fire as a new staff member. I also remember Hanks having some questionable profile pictures in the past....I have however never seen these viewpoints affect his ability to staff fairly though. (but also do u realize u can still be conservative and not have discriminatory views?..)
As of recently however, I really haven't seen any exhibition of discriminatory behavior from the staff team. And as a moderator im hoping to help uphold that standard. I think past & present admins should discus the previous issues themselves as it's more in their jurisdiction.
I think we have a solid upper-staff team right now that is willing to prevent or take actions against these incidents in the future going forward. We shouldn't tolerate any racism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. There could be more to say on this issue in general but i dont think that much will be accomplished arguing politics on a forum for a video game server.
