I think there should be a reconsideration of our staff members. I could name a few who are inactive and some who aren't a good mod if you ask me. I will not say names since this is up to the admins. I think that it's unfair for our to people in "pending" to get a chance while we have several inactive staff members.
This is not all staff members, but only a few I am reffering too. Those who are doing a good job should know that I am not talking about them.
I think it's time for the admins too do some research on the staff members.
names of the inactive staff members plox
Well, okay then.
I couldn't know for sure if they have some problems irl or are just busy. I might also be wrong about it but I am almost 100% sure that they are.
Iwasbobo is inactive for sure. He rarely makes a post once a day. He comes on every 2-3 days and make 3-6 postes and then don't get on for a few days. That's was I call inactivity for a forum mod.
Mod Bubu. I haven't seen him on for quite a while. He haven't gotten more than 100k exp over the last couple of months. He could have been pvping all the time, but he isn't that high a rank in pvp. But I might be wrong about Bubu but I am pretty sure he is inactive.
I really don't like saying this and I don't know why. That was why I didn't want to say it in the start. Those are the staff members I think is inactive.

No and I have no plans of doing that. I am not qualified if you ask me. It could be misleading if I applied.
You don't have to worry about Bubu. He's resigned.
Bobo is doing a fine job as it is. No one else's staff app for forum mod has been approved anyways, so he's the best choice.

Bobo is not doing a fine job. Bobo might make some good posts, but he's not even close to make enough. That's why I said reconsidered. Iridion made a forum app and we might have to pull back some old applications and look at them again. I think we could find several better forum mods than Bobo. Bobo is making around 2 posts a day. I don't know if he is busy or what.
What do you mean by resigned? :).

Iri was denied. I dunno why, but he was.
Posts don't really show his work load... He might be merging/splitting/deleting/whateverthehellelseaFMdoes without posting anything.
Bubu resigned as a staff member because his life is busy. Resigned as in he no longer wishes to be a staff member.
Mhj before you get ahead of yourself you need to think about the relationship between post activity and moderating, there is none. To say that for a person to moderate correctly they must actively post on a forum is wrong. kbai

Okay, I thought Bubu still was mod since his name is Mod Bubu. I know that Iri was denied but maybe we should re-think some of the denies.
bobo doesn't do whateverthehelleseaFMdoes. I don't know if he is playing **** or something. A forum mod shouldn't only merge/split/delete/lock etc. They should also show activity on the forum by posting some helpfull and usefull threads/replies. Bobo only does that every 2-3 days and then it's not very many of them. I agree with the fact that a longer post would maybe be better than 3 short. But he doesn't post many.
If you go look at his latest posts then there isn't many in the latest days.

It's good too have him as long as we don't have any others. But that's where we can go back in the denied and maybe find someone more active.

I don't care if bobo quit; he and Gavin are the smartest people that have ever been here.

That's not even close to what I am saying. There is soooo many threads where a forum mod could post something helpfull or usefull. But Bobo doesn't do that.

uh ty for respecting my post so well ya you got a point
But anyways. I found out that Bubu was demoted. But it's not only about Bobo. I hope for the admins to reconsider some of the staff members.

Maybe it is time to look at others, i agree with that bit. I don't agree with the "need to post" crap. Hell, i'm a gm and i don't post a lot. I am watching you all though :P

staff isnt bad now forums are clean we dont have to give new people a chance to try it if the current staff does the job.

He's not doing a good job. He's rarely on everyday. A good forum mod should be on more than 2 times a week if you ask me.
I am going to bed.
I take care of the forums too. I am on here for about 3 hrs a day (refreshing) :)
i am not talking about 1 individual i am talking about the current staff as a whole its doing quite well.
Mhj your claim has nothing to back it up, all you can say is that you don't see him on when you are, you aren't accounting for a differences in timezones or anything, moreover you can help a person without actively posting, nor do you need to post everytime you do something as a moderator.
bobo and bubu
:]
hct for admin.
Is it me or do both of you have permanent warnings O-o
Ya.
I see Bobo on everyday when I'm supposed to be doing homework...
staff is kinda sucky but i don't see it changing
i do like all the forum mod work all ya need is me and grim and toast when he gets on then jeff and bobo are there to look smart and be cooler then me so the forum team seems fine maybe in game team needs some change and also i don't see many Gm's browsing report sections anymore ^~^

Very true my friend, very true.
But I'm saying Bobo comes on whenever I'm supposed to be doing my homework.
I'm on here all the time...
I only really post when I have the need to. I don't see the point in posting about something I don't really have an opinion on. I do work as a forum mod, but half the time when I try to lock/delete/warn/whatever, someone has completed it seconds before me. Since when do I have to post to do my job? Give me some examples of when I would have needed to post but didn't, please.

It has nothing to do with the timezones. I have been thinking about Bobo's staff position for quite a while now. Most of the times where I look at his profile it has been serveral days since he logged on. Either he is always logged out or else he is just not active.
EDIT:
Our forum team is clearly the best compared to our in-game staff.
from the way i see it
it looks like ur trying to make bobo loose his staff position

I have nothing against Bobo. I actually think he does a good job when it comes to a few points. But I don't think he's a good forum mod with the activity he shows.
I am NOT trying to make him loose his position. I am trying to make our staff better.

That's not what I am saying.. I am just giving examples of staff members who could do better.
You can't prove he's not doing his job except to say you don't see him on and he's not super talkative, jeff used to say nothing and just moderate, he's like the oldest standing forum mod. O-o
Bobo does his job and he does it well, as does Tricky, Jeff, and Toast.
None of these guys needs to go, they're all very good forum mods.
EDIT: PUT HAWK IN THAT LIST TOO.

That's why I am saying that we need some changes in our staff... Our forum team is good enough. But there is some holes in the in-game.
There may be some holes but bobo isn't one of them.
And I'm pretty sure that with the ending of summer vacation the activity will slowly but surely fall down for everyone ( including staff members ) and there will be some changes ( we already saw this with Neo ).
