I think Lily really hit the nail on the head, though. Well you can't run anyway

This plan actually started in mid-December, but really wasn't discussed very completely since most staff were basically "yeah it's happening" and didn't really provide any counter-counter arguments. Oh the joy of being on the staff discord or anything.

It's also because this kind of topic isn't that easy to discuss tbh. you either agree with it, or you don't based on the fundamentals of this idea: Give the power to less individuals, but those who are supposedly more responsible. And if two people disagree on that, there's not much either side can do to convince the other.

I mean, let's take an example. "With less individuals with power the staff are more likely to corrupt". How would you counter that? Considering the whole server was staff you can't just say "we won't be corrupt" because put simply, are we supposed to believe that? You could also say that new staff would be chosen by the old trustworthy staff, but... it's not solving the problem either.

TL;DR This thing is really "you like it or you don't" and heavily opinion-based, so discussing it can be tricky at times if you're talking about things that alter the main idea.
