i wouldn't make this a full hard rule though. even though favoritism is a problem and can be grown through staff dating, people shouldn't be controlled into who they should or should not date. whatever your opinion is on mf dating there are still people who do it and they + future staff should be taken into consideration. as long as the people we would be talking about* aren't biased there is no need for a rule like this in the first place.

*the people we would be talking about = staff that's dating staff

Also, I completely /support this, for REASONS

I've been aware of this for quite sometime and It happens a lot on the EN Team anyways.​

Also, Not throwing shade.
Isn't it weird that the people who are favorited are getting jobs very quickly?
I've been looking at the thread and I see the same people getting more & more jobs added.

That's called people being promoted onto other teams cause they fit the criteria

"People who are favorited" As I see it.
I'm not talking about anyone on the team with just 1/2 jobs or someone just getting accepted to the team because they applied and had
the best application.
Some others on the team got a lot of jobs within 1 month.
I think they are really close with someone on the team also so I think that is completely biased

i disagree with this,
you can't assume that they are close with someone right off the bat just because they got hired
also can you be more clear on what "1/2 jobs" are?

One or two,
I'm not really assuming "right off the bat"
I actually have proof to back up my claim.
I meant a person
that's already on the team getting a insane amount of jobs​

i see
can you explain more on how this is favoritism?
i don't see it
and this thread is about staff relationships, so we should move this conversation elsewhere.

Since favoritism is kinda based on the topic
I think it should be here but hey, you are doing your job​

i see what you mean, but the instance over here in this thread is specifically talking about staff relationships. (hence the thread name)

I wasn’t dating the manager but we were really close as friends. I can 100% vouch for glo that it actually happens quite often. I didn’t notice that I got favorised that badly, but when we both retired It was pretty obvious. Not proud of that to be honest. I’d rather earn the position than getting it just because I’m close to the manager. A lot of drama also happend because of this, it got really bad.

honestly, /halfsupport,
staff dating isn't the only leading promoter to unfair favoritism. friendships also lead to it tbh. ^^

I can definitely agree with Bell, it does happen.

I have dated staff, been soulmates with staff and been close friends with the staff, including higher-ups, (as a staff member myself), and I put my job and the community first, and so did about 95% of the staff I associated with. I do think this would be a good rule, but I think it has to do with how trust-worthy one is? if not completely, it counts a lot.

I completely respect both of you, but in my opinion, Kye @Kye and Thermostat @Bluboye are sugarcoating this situation (?) if that makes sense. this has been going on for a long time and has happened to me with a staff member. it's a good idea, and Blu, I can guarantee you this would help miceforce 100%, with minor changes, etc. and Kye I'm not really sure what you're talking about? If you could kind of say your point without revising over "nonsense". Apologies if that sounded rude but I'm not sure how else to put it


However, this is a good thread and needed to be spoken, and as I mentioned before - /halfsupport

Adding onto my other post, since i can't seem to edit it. (I wrote it in a hurry so I hope this one supports my opinion better)
Favoritsm will always be an issue, It doesn't just happen between two people dating, but also a close knit friendship.
A manager should be professional enough to evaluate the situation without expressing favoritism. It makes it so unfair to the other staff members that aren't treated equally but work just as good. I understand if people get hired because of a biased opinion, mostly because the manager trusts that person, but it should also be put in account on how much they know about the position, and how qualified they are. I've seen a lot of cases of people getting promoted and not having a single idea on what that position calls for and that doesn't really make any sense.

In conclusion, I think 100% that relationships should be removed from the staff if it becomes an issue, which I believe it is and always has been.
