More active characters or no retired

"Enough staff"... How 'bout no?

*points to shadow*what he said. i cant seem to progress with a single character.

I'm glad that you liked the idea of having infinite characters, but ultimately, having an infinite amount of characters that can be posted with is a bit off a nuisance, as most of the staff agreed. With an infinite number of characters, sure, it made more posting occur, but it also made a lot of staff members work really hard. I remember modding two or three characters of the same person, and there were other occurrences of this in the staff. What made it worse was that if all those characters didn't get modded, if I remember right, there was a complaint. Not only this, but if there is an infinite amount allowed, then the staff may not even do their jobs as effectively, as they may have more characters that they post for that belong to them than for their actual duties.

Not only that, but not everyone is fit for the job of being a staff member. There are times where you could hire someone, and then they would immediately disappear for days, or possibly even weeks. Not only this, but some people would throw a fit and get into plenty of arguments with other members, and possibly wouldn't even know what they're doing as a staff member. So to the extent of hiring more staff members, suggestions are open for that, but it's not guaranteed to occur [in my opinion, at least. I'm not the entire staff, who do have suggestions for other staffy members that I would like to know about o3o]

To Shadow and Atlas, if you have a beef with the modding that is going on right now, you can take it up with the Mod Me forum, which I have not seen a post in for either of you in a bit. Shadow, your last one was a few days ago, and that got answered. As for you Atlas, your last one was in April... And it got answered. Please don't say anything about the staff when there are other options you haven't taken...

Yes, mine got modded just a few days ago. Even so, I don't speak for myself (only) now, not anymore. I can still see an inactivity, Matt. I don't have beef or any hatred whatsoever towards the staff members. Know that suggesting and complaining can sometimes look like twins. And you know me. If I have beef, I settle it right away - my way.

I didn't assume anywhere in my post that you were complaining, now did I? Also, because you're topic was modded just recently, and there is no other evidence to support your claim, then I consider your statement invalid. As for your post, that is a bit debatable if it's complaining or suggestion, or just another post with your view on things [cause I don't classify things when it gets that difficult ~o2o~]

It doesn't happen everyday. I know I'm hard to understand but what I mean is there shouldn't be inactivity or delays. I know mods have lives; I know that. I'm not saying they're slaves.

mods never post with me, i got 3 posts from flamelunar, she left. i got three posts from markj, he stopped posting. with one topic. if i cant progress with one character, i wouldnt be able to if every body had 7 chars.

As I said Atlas, you have options of going to the Mod Me section and posting there. You even have the option to personally message them and request your topic be modded. If you have further things you want to state that do not pertain to this topic, please drop me a message or start a new topic [if appropriate for this subject, though Mod Me is a good place to post in my opinion].

This was solved on Matt's first post, there shouldn't have been anything else to say. The staff volunteer their time to come on here. If things get busy for them irl or something come up, they have a reasonable excuse to drop whatever they're doing and attend to it. I don't know what staff are allowed to moderate or not, but when I first came back I got into a conversation with EmpoleonZach over the creations area and some of the things there not being modded. I can't remember what he said and I'm not going to put words into his mouth. If you feel there is an issue with moderation I'm' sure you can ask the staff to discuss it amongst themselves.
