@Sir
Out of curiosity, has the bug been fixed regarding being able to get your items back after a TSA has forcibly transferred them out of the account?
Has the market bug been fixed as well? The one that allows an item to be purchased (twice) by two different users, yet only one person gets the item because of the fact there is only one item that can be given?
Also my post was a Semi-Troll post. A lot of people I "worked" with back when I was staff were actually quite inactive. Just like the current staff, there are some good and some bad, some very active, and some somewhat inactive due to reasons, etc. I don't have any hate against staff I simply stopped being staff because I felt my time was being wasted because there wasn't really much I could do on my own and I ended up stuck waiting weeks sometimes to get a response back on my request or question.
Anywho, if that glitch still isn't fixed then smh.
There were also quite a bit of things that was requested to be done by the devs back when I was staff and I'm not sure if they've been done or just forgotten about but meh
There was a time in which I had to actually contact hampa via Email since no one else I talked to could help me with the particular case I was dealing with.
I'm way too inactive with this game/community to really give two shits now days anyway.
When I was staff, we also tried changing some things that would better the community and prevent people being scammed, etc. However, those things were never implemented because as a lower staff, we didn't actually have the authority to go ahead and put them in. There were also some things we suggested should be done/fixed but the site devs were never around to fix anything, let alone add new things we thought would help. Staff is usually a mix of people who really deserve to be there and those people do enjoy helping and people that are just there to be "staff" and don't do anything.
Will repeat that again, 2016 was a failure in terms of Toribash development due to lack of direction and proper dev time management. We have a dedicated web dev now and Dranix has always been around - they just need to be bugged frequently to do stuff. People who were in charge of development during 2016 thought staff colors are more important than forum/game updates - and you did nothing about that even though you sound to disapprove of their actions. Afaik Gynx wasn't employed by Nabi so the only good way of forwarding ideas to devs back then was to talk to hampa or Dranix directly.
PS. Panda

for one
The point is, certain people's neutral attitude towards those changes does not mean that they were not pushing for other changes to happen. Perhaps that line came out wrong and you meant something else, but phrased like that it sounds as if you were shifting the blame towards the lower staff memebers of that time. Belive me, certain active people and good staff members, such as panda, did what they could, to the point of getting discouraged and leaving.
The first one being the middlemen initiative - I still think it could have worked somewhat but that and whether it was a good idea or not is irrelevant - the point is, it was meant to spark discussion about changes in the rules about dueling and $ deals, bring forth some kind of change. I kept bumping it on staff boards, via irc and PMs for 8 months if my memory serves me well, without getting anywhere, with usual responds from higher staff being - we will discuss it further or, we cannot decide/cannot do nothing about that currently. I kept the matter going even some time after leaving the staff, ultimately dropping it later, and my hopes for toribash, as too time consuming and not worth any more of my time.
The other example is the idea of forum surveys for staff-groups evalution, to give community members a feeling of having at least some sort of saying in certain matters concering the game and its community. It was supposed to happen periodically, concering the issues important to certain staff group at the time. I bumped the idea several times, wrote a short PDF, around 2 pages long if I recall, after someone asked me to (might have been suo?) with some specifics about the idea, stating also that I can run those surveys and analyze them, or just help preparing them/offer assistance if any questions arise, whichever would be needed. Of course, nothing came out of it, even I asked about it several times/asked friendly smods to raise the issue in the A&SM board.
