Transparency - Staff Removals

[Fire Wraith]

Just to note, Korlash is off staff. This is not anything personal, or the result of any misconduct or anything, but an administrative call that I think will be best for all involved at the moment.

Feel free to ask privately if anyone has any questions, or wants to beat me up over it (I won't hold it against you).

Shobit has been removed from staff due to a series of unprofessional behaviors unbefitting of a staff member.

Black Venus has been removed from staff as a result of disciplinary action for breaching the sanctity and protections of the confidentiality between player and staff complaints/reporting to retaliate against a player and for the continuation of bullying and harassment behavior Black Venus had previously been warned against. This breach in confidentiality was gained through another staff member who has also been removed from staff.

Snaer has been removed from staff after a comprehensive investigation concerning strong arming players that came across as bullying; metagaming and misusing access to privileged staff information; and attempting to break the confidentiality between players and staff in relation to confidential complaints/reports.

We have a zero tolerance policy for bullying or harassment from any member of staff, and take confidentiality between players and staff very seriously to protect our community against retaliatory action from accused staff. Attempting to circumvent this isn't something we find acceptable from any staff member, even if the intentions were innocuous.

After discussions between the admin team and Snaer, Snaer has been profusely and sincerely apologetic for any harm they may have intentionally or unintentionally caused, and as such we would still like to welcome them among our community as a player who is looking to do better.

If anyone has any questions or concerns, please know that our and the SDMs inboxes are always open and that we take all complaints forwarded to us be it concerning a staff member or a player very seriously, and our primary goal is always the protection of you, our players.
