Seems to only be the smaller sites though never see a problem on sites with 100k members etc

You can't please everyone, if they're really that upset then they wouldn't complain, they would go elsewhere

Yeah, I see this quite often. Also, why the asterisks on R***Forums? So many forums that can fill that description.

Cause it's a competitive forum.

I've heard "it's cause she's a girl" over the past few years, so fun

I just don't get why it bothers people so much when someone gets staff. They should be happy for them. Staff isn't administrator. It isn't like they have the power to take over the whole site or take donations, etc. Everything they do is purely moderating the forum activity, not the expenses, not the files, etc.

Most people's reasoning right now is I haven't been here long enough or someone else deserved it more. Then they go on to praise how well I've done?


I'm sad to say I was one of those members. You've proven myself and a lot of other people wrong. 

Keep up the good work!

You cannot please everyone, though the main goal of a staff team is to please as many as possible. (Hence decisions should be made based on that.) That being said, people can complain on everything and everything will be complained about.

I don't think most members understand how picking appropriate staff works imo.

Seems they want to complain about it regardless.

You annoy me 

I'm jk. I've been one to complain so ya :/ and I've been complained at
