[Jammin]

iight a couple of things from based jammin:
1. I do like the idea of web staff apps, I feel any "dogpiling" that occurs wouldn't be a significant issue when filtering out any strawman arguments and just looking at objective criticism.
Plus Laced's discord app allowed me to powermod the forums for a day ;) I think an admin/web staff chat behind closed doors is appropriate for the decision making process, but I also think community support should be included.
2. This is the place for discussion, and I think Laced should be open to criticism just like anyone else, which I think he is. I also don't think anyone's being censored here other than obvious shitposts.
3. I don't think the "yikes" comment was an issue imo, but it was probably best to have a separate thread to discuss issues with Laced being web staff. Again, having web staff apps fixes this :)
4. For the record, I didn't give my support when discussing in web chat, but ultimately said I would not oppose Gabe adding Laced. I didn't really give a +/-1 to Gabe.
5. Something that should be made clear is that Web Mod now is significantly shallower in scope than it used to be. Laced only has moderation powers in a limited scope, and doesn't have access to other account/forum info that admins do. That played a role in my lack of opposition - had there been IP access, I would have opposed.
6. Something I feel isn't being acknowledged is that people change over time. I think Laced's turnaround is more than "keeping face for a few months."
7. This is the first im hearing of any bad things being said during the cs:go tournament. It seems like folks are grasping at straws here for a one-off semi-questionable comment.
8. I do think slur usage no matter what "server" it is part of isn't a good look.
9. Thank you to the community for keeping the drama in here and not the discord, lowering my grey hair count for a day
