Well, i've had my quarrels in the past with staff,... but the ones who talk to me have proven themselves to be good sensible people. Just try to give them a chance. Yes, I usually don't RP with staff but that's because IC i have no good reason to talk to them. In the future if I am approached I certainly will RP to the best of my abillity. Occasionally i talk to staff to complement their skin OOC, deal with faction trades, or to ask for help with something. I generally keep to myself when it comes to staff to give them breathing air, because they don't need the whole server asking them a question every 20 seconds...that and i was a bum hat to a few of them in the past. Just try to be a little more polite, it brings you a long way.
...I was a Administrator for a Finnish server at one point, i handled English speaking clients and enforced rules.(as well as adding castles to the land to cover up griefing lol) I was promoted because the owner had no English speaking staff that were native speakers. At this time my anger management and mental treatment was working well for me, that and I was determined to help out with things. I tried my best to be a fair staff, but even so i got a lot of bad reactions and fear... I eventually left the server because my mind was deteriorating and grief for IRL circumstances was negatively affecting my performance as a staff member.
On some servers, the staff can be very corrupt... When i was working with the others on the finnish server, i noticed that they abused their powers and picked favorites... one staff even disbanded and griefed his IRL ex's faction because he was butt-hurt about the end of the relationship, he later openly slandered me and his ex because I reported it directly to the owner... I can come up with plenty of other examples on that particular server.
Anyway, my whole point is, I know exactly how bad things can get with some staff (welcome to minecraft), BUT we have to remember that not all staff are bad guys. The staff members on massive were, and are more than fair with me, even with my mistakes and issues. If you wish to RP or talk to one of them, go on ahead. Most of them don't bite... (unless they are a vampire IC in which case its nothing personal)
(To the staff: i'm still feel horrible about the 'quarrel' we had before i lost the account Catlin_1130. I was acting like a total butt-hat... I feel bad about the whole thing...the accusations i made and the way i handled it wasn't appropriate at all. I'm sorry)
