Well, to start with 'harsh topics and edgy subjects' are still definitely covered by the touchy subject rule;

As for swearing; I think you'd honestly find that the users that swear the most are the younger users themselves. It was allowed (to my understanding) due to the difficulty and subjectivity in moderating it. What one person considers a swear another would not. even if we had an established list of 'swear words' this can be easily circumvented. Say we banned 'shit'. people would say 'shite' 'shat' 'chit'.

 

No idea on the actual amount. I think i'm faster now, but my spelling (which is sooo bad) is being ignored for speed.
The wc is insane as staff... No more using /r for me!!!

From BEFORE I became staff? the whole current staff team, @Bashdash100 - he was MY offpeak mod!, @oreo1227 & @pokemon9508 - Miss you boys! And of course @oootopia who must have another special mention cause she is so damn good!

 

Ofc i have. And that's the only time I found my job as a staff member

Ugh @SimsElemental @Krobkins @oootopia and everyone in thefam.

 

Still not an exceptionally fast typer, but I can say it's gone up from 50 to 60wpm at least.

 

I think my favourite users of all time have been @lapkingkn, @Starleana, @oootopia (because oootie pie) and (sorry) ChadMaxx, whom is perma'd.

Honestly, when I started playing ecc, I was a SLOW typer. Like literally 15 wpm. Over the course of the 3 years i've played I went from 15 wpm to 120 wpm. I honestly doubt being a staff has made me any faster, (except in repeat sentences such as inchat warnings). But I do have to say the wc's have increased and the severity of the wc's has gone up ;-;

Definitely some oldies I remember, Revanrose, and to name a few former active users, @pokemon9508 and @oreo1227, I miss you guys :( Of course I have always looked up to @ClarinetPhoenix and @Nicit6.

P.S: Great Questions guys ;3

 

Easiest? I wouldn't say anything about being a GA is necessarily easy, but the builder+ section usually takes less time than the other sections.

Oh yeah, it increased quite a bit. Some of it though is person specific. Mad is faster than a lot of other mods XD

I won't say that wc's increased, they just became more noticed by people.

I felt it a lot at the beginning of my staff career more so than now, but every now and then an issue pops up with no precedent. Being on staff can be stressful, but it all depends on how you manage and react to stress that matters.

 

When I first became mod the two main people who I went to for help were @7amoodw and @Ndm57dcraft . Since becoming SMod @Imaginex has been hella cool in helping me whenever I had questions and has always been a good friend to talk to :p

 

Would you rather be a good singer in a bad band, or a bad singer in a good band?

If you were able to have x-ray vision and hearing, would you take it if you weren't allowed to turn it off?

Imagine you have a bowl, a spoon, a freezer full of any and all ice cream flavors you can think of, and a pantry full of toppings. How do you make your ice cream?

And, of course: Coke or Pepsi?

 

Let me just put it at this. I do not sing as I sound like 3 cats shaken inside of a potato sack.

 

And annoying/on a really loud and clicky keyboard :p

 

I don't know if i'm allowed to ask this, @goblizz But i'd like to pose a question to the staff team, out of my own curiosity also I think other people would like to know this: Give us a list of your top 5 favourite artists/groups/composers and top 5 favourite songs (atm or of all time).

My own list: 1.Rihanna, 2.Jerry Goldsmith, 3. Sia, 4. Troye Sivan, 5.Of Monsters and Men
1.Consideration (Rihanna), 2. Piece by Piece (Kelly Clarkson), 3. Suburbia (Troye Sivan), 4. Ilia's Theme (Jerry Goldsmith), 5. Crystals (Of Monsters and Men.

 

Bad singer in a good band.

I'd take it.

nutella and other Kinder productucs, after eight vanilla and whetever i see that seems fancy.

I would say that kind of thing typically depends on the task itself.

Personally (and unpopular opinion here, probably) I don't think ECC was ever "child-friendly". It can be family friendly in genre but realistically - ECC is a niche server. The type of gameplay we offer doesn't appeal to children. Look at our playerbase, the age range skews upwards. Even before the things you mentioned changed, "children" (0-12) we're fairly few and far between compared to the rest of the players. It really comes down to personal preference, not a demographics issue.

Does bad singer in a good band mean I'm just a bad singer, or a bad singer as the lead vocalist? If it's the former I'll gladly choose bad singer in a good band, I'll just be on drums.
