after reading recent comments, imma just air my thoughts out. panda, i think you’re more than capable to staff, you’ve got the knowledge and the skills to be able to staff, no doubt about it. server culture is definitely still something that needs to be worked on, which i’m sure at least most people agree with. the only thing that i find really iffy is the approach of the concerns or criticisms made. i’ll reiterate what i said in the staff server with my concerns just to be as transparent as possible and be genuine with my responses. 

How I view it is that they are minor criticisms/concerns that I believe are valid. Others have gotten similar situations where a minor criticism/concern is brought up and have addressed it, stating to either do better or give an explanation/give an apology for their actions. It’s not to say you gotta say sorry to the individual if you don’t want to, but it makes it look like you try to deflect the criticism or take it as another way, instead of a minor issue just to fix for the time being. At least that’s how I see it. You can be defensive and give your view on it, that’s fine, but it seems like you don’t try to address it by stating you’ll fix the issue of being less aggressive in your responses. I trust you to do all the staff stuff since it’s easy, but just decisive if you’d be able to take a step back and really look into the issues and take them head first without approaching it in a way that makes it view it as a minor attack or nitpick. just my two cents.
