I wasn't the one who added the tag, and I didn't handle the flag. But the way I see it, the [status-declined] tag was added specifically because of this line:

> The Codidact community team have accepted to be the staff and run the community. So, in my opinion, if Codidact is an aspiring platform, one may expect that they work as paid staff do.
>  
> Am I right?

And for that, the answer is **a resounding no**. (See the answers there for a more in-depth explanation on why.)

Since the main point of the question is asking "can I expect this", and the answer is "absolutely not", the request to be able to expect that volunteers behave like paid staff is being declined.

It is a bit confusing, though, I'll agree; but it gets the point across that *the point being raised here has been considered and declined*.
