Influencing Mod Decisions [Lock Requested]

[Evil Yoshi Toes]

I don't think we should straight up ban the staff from giving their opinions on matters that are outside what their role covers. It's feedback afterall. But I've been starting to see that happen more and more in the staff discord and yeah we should slow down on that probably. That being said I can't say I can agree with both examples you gave for this.

Then they should do it in public like other members in my opinion. I don't feel right about having other staff dog-pile members in private and influence mod decision making, especially since the mods are the ones who get s*** when an unfair punishment is issued. Not trying to be rude to any of the other staff, I like them all a lot, but I think they should focus on their own roles and share their feedback on moderation publicly like everyone else. Advocating for a member to be banned is looked down upon when normal members do it, so why is it different for non-mod staff? They all have their roles and they are very important and I'm very grateful for what they do for the community, but banning members isn't part of their jobs.
