i apologize for my earlier meme comment, I genuinely thought this was a shitpost. I'll actually give some constructive feedback.
Right now I would give a -1, I agree with what Norm said. 5,233 out of your 5,870 messages in the discord are in the ph channel. The gap between activity in other channels seems to consistently range from days to weeks and almost months sometimes. While it's ok not to be active in every channel always, I think there should be some more consistent activity outside of the ph channel. I think if you want to become discord staff you're going to have to break out of that ph bubble and interact with members of the community from other servers more rather than just ph. I know you said that you "check every other channel at least once a day." While that is a good start, lurking around all the channels is not enough. Actually interacting with those in other channels is important. I think this is important because otherwise a lot of members of the community won't really know who you are unless they frequently check the ph channel or are actively involved in ph part of the community. I say this as someone who is pretty active by discord standards and I rarely see you outside of the ph channel.
Since being a discord staff is an entire community-wide position, I feel like a prerequisite of becoming staff is being a known face across the entire community. Right now it does not seem that way. So, I'd ultimately suggest being more active outside of the ph channel if this position genuinely interests you. Also I'll echo Norm and Kap's comments of the lack of effort in the original post, therefore making it seem like a shitpost to some. I do not really know you otherwise or your staffing ability, so I will leave that to others to comment about. But from the looks of it so far it seems like you are a good person with potential.
