For me, I'm trying my best and for once, I think I've been doing a really good job, especially with everyone stuck inside, and I can say the same for many other staff. Can it be overwhelming at times? Yes. But its manageable and like bear said we can't just make a helper fall from the sky with a snap of our fingers. I've been a staff member for longer than almost anyone and there not being enough staff has never been a problem. We're all trying our best and working very hard, just because we arent online to ban a hacker or two on the spot doesn't mean you need to freak out.

Yes I am thankful to all the staff that helped me. The staff team we have are hardworking and nice. I never deny that. But we should keep improving arent we? Indeed, the problem I mentioned maybe an exceptional case. I only want to inform that there were some period of time with no staff online, especially weekend afternoon for me(I live in asia). So I suggest to recruit more helpers if possible.

Also why does every staff member be so reluctant to adding new staff? Because of Ha-zard?

The thing about that is that people apply to be a helper, not staff chooses helpers. Also many players don't have time to even do the job of a helper. Being a helper means that you always have be doing that job, and can't just occasionally log on and ban like 1 dude. Like I could never be a helper because I have other things to do than to be on the server or forums, and I probably wouldn't be the best helper either.

If you want more helpers you could always apply to be one BTW.

I believe the staff team will tell the ppl who applied about the duties and responsibilities of being a staff, to make them have a mental preparation on what they should do and shouldn’t do when being a staff. Then the ppl with confidence that they can be qualified for this position may be picked.

And no, I don’t want to be a staff. I rather just play.

1) Yeah, time zones are really difficult because there’s so many and I don’t think we have 1+ staff in each zone.

2) Mhm, probably because of HIM and just overall trust issues.

Think of it like a workplace. You don’t start off as a manager, you have to prove you’re trustworthy and can handle your job at the beginning before you’re given more power/work so I assume same goes here. You start off as the starter position and have to prove yourself to earn more power aka higher rank

I do think we need more helpers. And I understand staffs concern of what could happen if someone misuses their power, but we have to trust people. We have put our faith in them and believe that they arent like youknowwho. It's not their fault that he/she made bad choices and misused his/her powers and they shouldnt have less of a chance because of someone else's mistakes.

I get that BrokenLens is really looking for good people and honest people, but think of it. When's the last time we got a new helper? Yes, trenz and khriz are now helpers but they were originally just builders. It's been forever since a normal player has applied and gotten the spot. I'm probably going to get lots of negative replies for this, but maybe when choosing staff, they are a tiny bit, erm, picky? And no, I'm not begging for staff or angry if i didn't get it (lol) But I'm just saying that not everyone is going to be perfect, we all have flaws.

Just give people a chance. If they dont work out, they simply will no longer be a helper.

well ofc the staff team has to be 'picky', a helper needs to be kind and patient and trustworthy, otherwise there'll be consequences that can ruin the team or even the server.
Trenz and Khriz became helpers last month, so it hasn't been a while or anything. They're helpers because they're trustworthy and, well, they help and do the right thing.

The staff team already gives everyone a chance on all bl platforms by allowing 'normal' players to be themselves, and if they see that they're not fit as a helper, then they're not fit as a helper.
It's not about the number of staff members there are, it's about the staff member themselves and what traits they have and what they value (quality not quantity basically). I think the staff team is fine as it is, there's no need to rush to promote more helpers.
