Round N round we go. Give them some time, 2 weeks isn't gonna change awhole lot. If you havn't noticed, every other day they are getting new members on staff, which means more features will come faster then before.
I was waiting for you. Send me a pm, i have a bone to pick with you young man!
Btw, all the staff jobs have been given out for now im sure.... It's ok to speak your mind.
No they have not. Teams are still being put together. You're information is wrong. And speaking one's mind is totally acceptable if it is done is a calm and productive, and not destructive, way.

I've been waiting for you too, as you're always in these discussions hehe. The elder has arrived!
The teams still being put together is interesting, any way to nominate someone even if you're only a member?
First off, there is the time factor, as mentioned by Wayne. Barely 2 weeks and already not only clamouring for the changes but insinuating for no apparent good reason that there won't be any at all?
Statements like these (not mentioning who made them), and my own very personal, uninvolved perceptions of them (right or wrong):

That's not quite true. I've followed as an onlooker, and I've voiced some opinions myself. Maybe as said it's the unhelpful way some things are being said, not the fact that they're being said at all.

and tuck your tail in between your legs.
Not terribly helpful at all in this situation.

Wayne your a hypocrite.
Given the last threads I have seen, this statement does not seem true, nor does it seem warranted in any way

I heavily suggest some ... reflection before posting this kind of thing.

Baiting, unnecessary insinuation
I will agree with you in one aspect, that the original post was blown way out of proportion. I have never been one to spoof up my words to make them nice and pretty, I just ask directly. I know as many for a fact that there was a meeting a week ago. I have been paying attention to the main page, nothing in a while. While many may perceive my words as negative, they actually are not. I could not be anymore direct with my intentions.

There are teams leaders. You can contact them privately. However like I said previously a lot goes into the consideration of the staff chosen. Just because someone is a good coder doesn't mean they are good fit for the current team. Their public posts will be a good indication and current team mates will be allowed to express their opinion. However, not getting a team position isn't a reflection of the person either.
There are ways to contribute and get noticed so when a position opens up, your name could be in the #1 slot. Post your addons, help people, contribute tutorials are some. Being a positive force in the community overall will help you become staff as people leave or the site and teams grow.

Yes, the contributions is a given I was just interested in perhaps promoting someone.
