I have voiced my opinion on this in other threads after hearing what happened to salty (the faction), and after I saw it kinda happen to me I realized the problem, staff on manacube once in never face consequences. Of course, this is not completely true, we do see it from time to time and of course a lot of good staff exist I have talked to some and they have helped, but then I have talked to some who have been shady scammy and overall a plague to manacube, an example of a good staff was one ( didn't write her name down) who I ask to help me find my base which some factions mods not chat mods factions mods would not do but she/he found my base helped with a few other problems and informed me of the rule that afk pools are not allowed. Of course, I removed them and have not used them since, but if someone like the staff member that talked to murknmurda came to my base, right now we all would be banned with our base being given most likely to his faction. Then these staff members are able to reject a lot of the new recruits so they can keep "power" I guess (not sure if that last part is a part of the staff member good bad split but the staff application process is still super flawed). This good-bad staff split made me lose 50 irl dollars and I could have lost another 50 if I did not read murknmurda's thread. I hope this shines light on manacubes hidden problem that you have all dealed with some good staff and some so absolutely garbage they make your problems worse.
(my story is done but I lost the fifty bucks bc one of my faction members admitted to x raying so i banned them instead of telling staff which was admittedly the wrong thing to do but still and when i got back the next day my base was raided, I thought it was a classic raid but no it was a inside I knew I could not have been my close friend tobi1996 bc we was not even on and I know him personally, but then I realize half of my damn base was unclaimed like wtf so I ask a staff and we tells me that somehow even though i banned the guy {beastmode62 was the guy who btw I banned for x raying} it was due to f perms that he was able to unclaim my base which was impossible bc i kicked him and at the time my base was fully claimed and not half wilderness half my faction so I lost {just looking at expensive stuff} 4 ig spawners a infinity chest a enderman spawner a chicken spawner a cow spawner 300k worth of obby {more but that is conservitive} 20 hopper min of 2 creeper eggs and a mvp+/mvp set {cant remember} so yeah lost alot and this guy just claimed that he was able to unclaim like he was a co leader even though i kicked him which i am calling bs on because you cannot and its not like by base was claimed over it was simply just unclaimed.)
