MCSG. is. FINE
Yes, a lot of staff members left, sure there are more hackers, but that isn't MCSG's fault. What can they do about it?
I realize that the staff can go ban the hackers, but you could record them and send in a report abuse as easily as they could do that.
A lot of people seem to think that just because we lost staff members, just because there's an increase of hackers, that we're dying, that we're "Not going to last a month more."
That isn't true.
We will only die out if we allow ourselves to, and by saying "We're going to fail.", you're not getting us anywhere.
Get out there and record hackers, if you can't do that, patrol the servers and screenshot spammers, Capitol letter abusers, and report them.
YOU can clean up MCSG, it's not entirely the staff members jobs to do that. Yes, I do realize that's what they're employed to do, but they can't be everywhere at once.
Chad being inactive?
Honestly, that's understandable. As a player, I would love to see more activity with the community on his part, but we don't know what else he has going on in his life.
He updates the news feed whenever there is some sort of issue, and replies occasionally to threads.
He's not totally inactive.
Inactive staff?
There really aren't that many inactive staff.
Just because you don't see them online when you log on, doesn't mean they weren't on before.
Everybody has a little something called a life, and sometimes, that can lead to being incredibly busy, and not being on 24/7.
Staff are not payed (except for developers, they might be payed) and they do not need to be online constantly, there is no contract biding them to a certain amount of time online.
Yes, they will be fired if they don't do their job, and a lot of people with hate them for being inactive, but sometimes, there are more important things in LIFE to handle.
Teams ruining the gameplay?
Pardon my French, but what the hell do you want us to do about it?
We could use the "No teams of three or more" like the hive, but then we'd lose a ton of players, and have complaints all over the forums.
Teaming is fun. It's an aspect of the game that will more than likely never be removed.
You need to just deal with it.
You don't need to win every game. If you die to a team, Whoop de do! Join another server!
This is still a PVP game because last time I checked you had to fight other players, including teams.
I'm not a staff member, but I can only imagine how frustrating seeing a thread like this is.
You are basically straight up telling them "You aren't doing your job right."
That's like a punch in the face.
Our current staff members are some if the best we've had in a while. Sure, there might be a lack of staff members, but the incredible quality of staff members we do have, makes up for it.
We don't need 600 staff members, 50 really good staff members does the job a heck of a lot better.
Finally, you just need to understand. You need to understand what's going on, look at it in another Point of View.
MCSG has done a lot to appease the community, but every time, the community just finds something else to nag about.
How about when they switched tier items after a COMMUNITY poll.
I saw tons and tons of threads saying "Eww, the new tiers are horrible. Take them back."
For the love of god, can't you ever be happy?
MCSG is trying, but every time they're just pushed away.
They tried for new staff, lowered the age limit to 14, but the community still isn't pleased.
The put in a swear filter plugin, the community continues to swear, bypassing it, and complain about the filter.
They put in NCP to help bring down hackers, the community hasn't let them live it down since.
Just stop.
Think for a minute and understand how picky, and negative you are.
MCSG is trying!
You need to stop thinking only about yourself and put yourself into MCSG's shoes.
MCSG is going no where, in fact, we're growing.
We will not die anytime soon.

I'm really sorry I was so rude in this, I really am, but it needs to be said, and it needs to be said seriously.
