It depends on the staff member. I’ve gagged and mute players with certain PH staff on and they had no problem with it, and I’ve had PH Staff members that did have an issue.

I remember Dink saying if the player is mic spamming, does it matter who does the gag? Just gag them. (I will look for the exact quote and edit this post)



EDIT:

I'd also like to ask a question regarding donors. It hasn't happened in a long time but at times, I've been on server as a donor and am just playing and minding my own business when someone who is obviously trolling comes on or is mic spamming. With there being a staff member on, I'm not allowed to take action. I just wanna know if it's bad if a donor does take action if the staff member isn't actually handling the situation? And if so, how exactly can that situation be handled with the staff member not doing their job? Like most people I'm not always recording so I can't catch this type of thing on video and I'll have no proof if it all happens in VC.

This has been happening a lot recently. I'll officially say now that I never created the "no donor powers when staff on" rule, and personally I think its ridiculous. If a micspammer starts mic spamming, who the hell cares who gags them? I think staff are way too conceited in this aspect and need to relax a bit when a donor chooses to take action before them. If it becomes an issue with particular donors overstepping decisions made with staff, those donors can be addressed individually, but I don't see why it's such a big deal.

EDIT 2: This is regarding Mic Spam or Chat Spam. When it comes to ghosters and/or hackers, I can understand why staff want to handle it. Like if I’m trying to catch a ghoster, I wouldn’t want a donor kicking them out of the server.
