Fusion of Teacher and Moderator

[Kevin]

Giving powers such as banning or blacklisting to a rank that people can apply for is a bad idea imo

You can apply to contributor and they can have a damaging effect. Looking at some past 1's

If anything, it makes it easier to pick applicants out because the staff can see who would like to try a staff position out, to who they would've picked for mod/trial.

It really doesn't make it easier at all, if a player applies for a position such as this then they are likely to act differently from the way they would usually. The reason we pick staff members the way we do is to see how they would usually act in a normal environment.

ok cool?

I can apply for teacher and act different aswell. Staff just need to lookout for that change of attitude, not hard to spot.

Teachers do not have the same powers as staff, that's the difference.
