besides that, if you have a real problem with a staff member
From my own direct experience, I can tell you that "Square Enix staff" seems to include the staff as a whole (e. g. no criticizing "the devs") as well as individual staff members. Criticizing FINAL FANTASY XI itself is implicitly permitted, but anything more "meta" than that (such as Square Enix's publishing or staffing decisions, which are external to the game itself) is not allowed in these forums.
