All employees of Wikia have accounts on the site (like this one), allowing us to communicate with users, get involved in editing, and test features. Some users had accounts long before they were employed with Wikia, and subsequently became flagged as Staff.

The only way you can become 'Staff' is if you get a job with Wikia, via the Careers page (linked above and in the site footer).
