Are there any changes to any of the templates?
I had four templates needing merges but three were fixed when I loaded a new version of my base style (Font Awesome+ from PixelExit). The other was one I had modified myself. Ended up having to remove my change (a small one), merge, then re-apply my change. Not sure why it wouldn't let me just merge.
 
Back when I was younger, I would have preferred and loved being a staffer. It gave me a sense of belonging. Now that I'm older and been through the rigamarole, I prefer not having the extra responsibility and just being a contributing member.
 
Much rather prefer to be a member. Whenever I see forums with an excessive number of staff membres, usually their announcements section is all about adding / firing staff - worse turnover than the local burger place.
 
On the one hand I might make a good mod as I possess writing skills and am well informed etc. On the other hand I have a low tolerance for B.S. and can be easily provoked. I do believe one ought to be easy going and diplomatic in order to be a staff member. I may be the former, (to a point) but am lacking as to the latter.

So it's best for me to remain as a simple member.:rolleyes:
 
In all seriousness, I’d rathe not be staff as it is really hard to be “normal” while being staff.

I thank everyone for saying member.
 
I'd prefer to be a normal member but I created my own place to avoid some drama with someone, so... :D But if things were different, definitely a normal member.
 
Would you prefer to be a member or a staff on a forum?
I recently closed my forum and now enjoy posting places as a member. :)
 
I've got an account on it but I forgot about it :p
lol Do you need a password reset or anything? I'm looking for some active members. :D
 
I think it depends on the forum to me, as well as the people who are on staff. If I'm comfortable enough with the staff members that I'd be comfortable asking them questions while I get used to things, I don't dislike being staff- after all, I get to help a site I probably really enjoy.

On other sites, though... I'd rather just be a member. Especially if I'm still not used to the site or just generally not comfortable with the people yet anyway, it'd feel silly to be staff. xD

I would prefer to be a member on a forum that I'm just going to post/log on every now and again but if I'm going to spend a lot of time and dedicate lots of years to a forum then I'd rather be part of the staff and have some say in what's going on.
 
Admin on my forum (obviously) and on one other forum. :D

I like mainly just being a member on other forums, tho.
