I haven't actually been staff - as in, paid staff - since a stint on the Fair Play team a few years ago; Chess.com was happy for me to keep the staff tools for awhile to help out the wider moderator team, but we reached the end of that and I took an extended break. I'm just a regular blue pawn moderator now 😎

Really? I'd be happy if David got swallowed up by a saltwater crocodile and was never heard from again.
One big difference between you an me is that I'm in a better position to realize the incredible amount of time and energy @david has devoted over the years to making this site a better, smoother, safer and less toxic environment for the members, most of whom pretty much take this all for granted.
Thankfully this isn’t twitter where people get upset for the dumbest reasons. If this was Twitter their would be a riots near Erik’s home.
Darn you got me

Sorry if I'm being rude but if I'm not mistaking david was a staff, but now he is a mod. He's in the staff club which is proof he was staff. Did he resign, or was he demoted?
Again sorry if I'm sounding rude.
@david
No big deal - same boss, same salary and a different title. Basically the same he has always been.

Unlike Urk, I'm sure Erik's bank account shows proper appreciation for all of David's free labor.
/sarcasm
Personally I don't find altruism a vice. The work isn't to enrich anyone but to help keep this place somewhat worthwhile.

or basically both, but I would not use the word enrich.
