Now are you referring to skill as a player or skill as a staffer? I'll give an answer to each scenerio: Skill as a player: There are not many and haven't been many staffers who excell both as a staffer and a player. Staff takes time when you go beyond ER and Mod. As many of you know Upper Staff is criticized for not playing much and sitting in spec. Well folks whether you like it or not there's a reason. Upper Staff is constantly involved in things "behind the scenes". Though we may not play or host, we are always busy doing things for the zone that many of you don't know about. Staff is a busy life, and it takes away from playing time, so no, those who choose to be staff may not care if they are good as players, and it doesn't matter. Skill as staffer: Whoever told you is either a re-*BAD WORD*-ed eskimo or got hired as a staffer and did nothing, and got mad after being fired for doing nothing but taking up space on modlist. I have a comment on this. In my 2 years of staff, I still played intensively. I hosted rumbles and played in them at the same time, but since the arrival of the Bot, this isn't possible anymore. Silly though, because rumble always has been a great event to learn how to host. Anyway, I have played league during my time on Staff and I have been in some good squads (Covert-Ops, Seraphim) so DKR, don't say stupid things like that. Blue is right.
