If you look at it through a scientific nerd lens (and that's what you should do regularly), it is kinda cool.

p.s. it's still amusing what looks a relatively sturdy 6'1 guy dressed all in black (that'd be me) gets when carrying a pack of diapers around town. I guess it's the conceptual contrast.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

*wonders if there is an alcoholic prune drink one can actually get wasted by*

Apparently, but I'm not getting locked up to find out.

Staff member may make mistakes, I made a few, but none is done on purpose, it usually involves some wipping from the other staff members. If a staff member makes a mistake he will be criticized for it.

Some time ago, acting as staff, I didn't thought something right and acted bluntly with it. My teammates called me to reason and I apologized publicly for my outburst. We are human.

It is way more frequent to have a member pull the "but you are abusing your staff power" routine, than error to come from a deliberate abuse of power. Staff members should be able to have passionate discussions about X without fear the normal members reaction to it.

I even recently faced Losty on a mafia subject, that I mistakenly thought would spill onto the general forum and she carefully explained that was simply a subforum change. Like any regular joe, I had to admit my error. That's civil service. Had she been a regular joe, I'd be getting a kitrenkorn up my ass. So yeah I criticized a staff member. There is no rule about that. There is even a subforum for that.
