As you know there is a built in feature called ‘Staff Colour’
What is the proper use of it. Is it for setting an example to others and important announcements? Im just looking for the proper use. As for now my forum uses it for staff setting an example.
Thanks
In my case (support forum) I use staff color for very important announcements that involve the whole community.
Secondly, to give an official answer in a public topic where two or more team’s members have differing views and a user do not know which of these instructions should follow (very rare, but it happens).
We will be de-styling this a bit in future versions. The function will remain but it will be less… yellow and obnoxious.

Cependant, la couleur du personnel et le survol du bouton dans le menu déroulant :
Sont de ce bleu qui n’est nulle part dans mes palettes de couleurs. Si quelqu’un pouvait m’aider ou suggérer un changement CSS, ce serait fabuleux, merci.
Il conserve toutes les couleurs du thème en mode sombre, mais il fait ça ^^^ en mode clair. De plus, cette icône d’édition au crayon est orange :
