    I'm going to cut to the chase, I was demoted for abuse (I didn't harm the game or other any player's experience). Being staff on Brawl was fun, and it was much different than the 5 years I had spent playing the game. I got denied 12-14 times. When I got the rank I was ecstatic. In the past I had been able to see how my staff applications were being received due to a leaker, but this time I had no one. Being staff killed any potential enjoyment for Brawl. After being staff on WarZ, there is no way you can enjoy yourself after losing, or giving up, the rank. I had several friends who were staff members, and when they quit they lost the enjoyment of playing. The idea of this had always seemed ridiculous to me, how could you not have fun after being able to **** around for the first time in months? Watching fights in poof and just tping to people to watch them replaced the fun of fights. Building for the warz map became a hobby. I added easter eggs to the War and WarZ maps. Without being able to talk on staffchat it became even more boring as I was now isolated while playing. I no longer could shoot **** and try and get stuff done in the WarZ discord, so I quit. After coming back, I have no urge to play WarZ, even on the community WarZ server. I bought a rank, yet I still can't play, because I can't poof around and just chill out. I regret abusing and I miss being a mod on WarZ; I miss the fun of being a regular player the most.

    maybe being staff has changed a lot but actually i remember actually doing staff duties and talking to other staff as the most miserable part of logging into the server, because if you didn't do anything you'd get flak for being useless, and if you did things you'd get flak for being abusive so there wasn't really a way to win. and most long-time staff were about as helpful as you'd expect from being just a regular player. which is to say, basically not helpful at all. i had asked once to be switched to fpshg mod from warz, because i was barely playing warz anymore, and was told that i could switch, but to switch back i would need to reapply, and i said that yes, id like to be switched. but, alas, i wasn't switched because the system for doing staff jobs was poorly set up, poorly maintained, and its a miracle that it managed to put on a facade of effectiveness. the best part of being staff was being demoted for expressing my opinions about other staff members. but at least i got three months of mvp for it.

    I found those daily duties fun; the staff system has been streamlined but Brawl staff are going even more inactive (woah, I wonder why).

    Yeah. I was booted for inactivity and whatever time I had logged on before dropped to 0 after.
