I've noticed this as well. But from me personally, I try to chat as much as I can, but usually when I'm logged in, I'm pixeling things and refreshing the page every once in a while. @o@

I try to chat as much as I can too, but honestly my real life got more stressful and busy right after I was hired as a mod. and it would have happened to me either way.
plus sometimes seeing a bunch of people I don't know still scares me. I sometimes get scared of jumping into conversations, especially if I don't know or relate to the current topic. :X

I know I used to be more active, but I have three jobs T^T So when it came time to cut back on extra things to get more work done, idle chit-chat on Trisphee had to drop to the wayside. I only monitor a few threads now, plus of course the sections I moderate.

I try to be friendly and chatty. Generally when I am online I am posting something in the staffs writing forum trying to get setup with the next event or in the rp realm.

I get nervous around a lot of new people and am scared of jumping in just in case I get ignored, so I can understand how others would feel about that type of thing.

But the thing also, that online there is no tone and you can't see facial expressions so you can only go on text, which means something that is meant to be a joke can easily be taken the wrong way.

As Staff don't mean to seem to come off different, but as we have to come over with authority at times and can't really get buddie, buddie with members just in case trouble comes up involving said buddie and whatever the trouble is and our buddie is cleared then someone would state that it was favoritism even if they never posted it in public so we are also weary about that.

I have been sick and busy with things my self but I know I try to be kind and friendly with all who is here and I hope I haven;t change from when I first came here I try to stay that way and have some kind of being a mod I'm new so I sometimes forget what I need to do but try to be more professional about what I do.

You haven't changed at all sempai. <3

I don't know if I have changed.. I always thought I act the same all the time.. but since I took on the job of adding rare item previews to the image guide (plus with me being sick off and on this month and with easter) I haven't been posting as much as I should D8

I don't think you have changed DK, I knew you before you were staff.

I really hope I haven't changed since I was a regular member, because that would just suck.

I knew a lot of people before they were staffs.. I can't really think of any who has changed but I haven't been on as much lately xD

But when I became staff I promised myself I would do my best, be fair to the users, and if something that happened and I was on I would do my best to take care of it!... that promise still stands in my head even now.. I wonder if I am living up to it and keeping it xD

That's the way to do it DK. =3

I'm not as active within the community as I like, but I'm working on up and coming stuff. So much work, so little time. XD

You should see all the images I made for the image guide xD

I finally got a dent in the list xD I should finish the event item previews tomorrow sometime then upload and add them to the thread ._.,

I think you guys are still the same from when I had met you and seen you around the site before I became staff.

That makes DK happy to hear ;w;

Awww your same so it's okay. -hugs-

I hope I'm still the same too. a couple people have told me I've changed but I'm pretty sure that was just folk being upset that I had to mod at them for something they legitimately did wrong. -_-;;
it's not always easy to be professional, kind, and tell people they're doing things wrong all at the same time. but I always try to keep it that way. I sure hope I never come off as rude to anybody, because I don't intend to be.

I know I've changed, my user name looks much better in lavender. :p

I have actually tried to be more social since being added to staff. I've talked to users I've never talked to before, and tried to be as helpful to the site as possible. I have literally lost sleep just trying to keep a watchful eye on the site, since some nights it seems I am the only staff on for a few hours.

I have always acted like I normally do, cocky and full of myself, yes, but I do try to help anyone that needs it as well.
