    I think having a staff member on at all times can stop some of the bullshit banter we see. Maybe a schedule of times a staff member can volunteer their time to get the most coverage and if it can be covered more often than not another over seer added that plays the times that need coverage. The new ppl I had come play, friends of mine, didnt stay because of the home cc and I have been keeping mine turned off lately just tired of it sadly. That means i cant help players like I like to. Part of my enjoyment of battlescape is helping new players. I have no idea if its possible but maybe key words could be flagged for mute, an auto thing perhaps. For instance maybe if someone says a racist word they would be automatically muted? This would take some stress of overseers because it would not be personal or done by an individual.

    I would like to have the option to buy more bank space. Also like to buy more slots for ge. Maybe have a poll or something that gives a gift to the nicest or most helpful non staff member of the week or month, even something simple like a name color change or tag. In other words reward the ppl doing what they can to make this server positive and encourage ppl to stay and play positive reinforcement as opposed to neg reinforcement when someone isnt nice.

    Bots for pkers to practice on might be a nice thing to have as well assuming it can be done. Maybe a practice bot area and bots that use different styles.

    You always have the best ideas. Hopefully something like that gets implemented.

    Volunteer to find some good people to promote to Overseer.

    Pretty hard to not find 8 year olds getting whipped and screaming ingame.

    You know you are always able to send a staff member a message through the discord if the cc is a mess. If you provide them with enough evidence they might even take serious actions against this player. You should always keep in mind that all staff members play this game for fun, not as their full time job. we know that if you are unlucky with timezones then there might be a chance that no member is in the possibility to come on. I think that we have a pretty active staff team at this moment (behind the scenes, ingame, on their alts, and so on!) A little respect wouldn't hurt.

    This thread was a plea for dialog about what you dont like, and thats simply what I tried to do talk about things i dont like and offer potential solutions.

    As far as respecting staff you are preaching to the choir I certainly respect staff and I even mentioned it was volunteer in my post. I think alot of ppl dont realize that it is indeed all volunteer. I do often go to discord when things are bad but tbh if i did for all the bullshit lately I wouldnt have time to play so easier to just not be in there. Ppl on my fl still come to me to get me to find help because they know I have done it a few times. I am told to ignore the offenders quite often soooo not being in the CC is a easy way to ignore lolol. Yes its wonderful more staff have been online more I love it. Life definitely gets in the way though I get it.
