*Sighs* It is true. I have a few friends that don't even bother posting on here any more because they doubt Neji will ever answer them...

But remember, the 'Staff' are really just players to, with normal lives, normal jobs, and studies.
They aren't 'paid' to do this or anything. If we lived in a perfect world there'd always be one on, but unless people are actually fully employed to be on at all times it would never happen.

While, you are right, it doesn't change the fact that they have a responsibility, they signed up for it, voluntarily.

And because of this fact, they are supposed to be active consistently.

I feel that if they aren't, they should be let go.

All present mods have been active at some point. In other words, all have contributed some precious time to this game in order to help out Oliver.

With that being said, although this topic holds some amusing arguments, the truth is that an inactive member who still holds a staff title is not an issue. Why? Simple. We don't get paid for this. If we did get money for doing this work, then yes, it would obviously be quite unfair indeed. :P

I'm assuming that the main reason that Neji doesn't remove mod powers is because he is grateful for our help and leaves our status as a way of saying thanks. He also probably hopes that they might become active again.

Anyways, SL isn't exactly a democracy, more of a benevolent dictatorship. In the end, Neji has the last word. Either it be demotion or promotion, he has his reasons.

I think staff should be on everyday cause as a regular shinobi if I need help staff should be there
Seriously... how often do you really need help from Mods.
In all my time playing I think I've called a Mod maybe twice?
Besides getting Avatars Validated and a couple of issues your really don't need them 24/7.
But it would be nice to have them there in case we did.
Seen it before when people go crazy and no Mods on to take care of them.

The point is, being a staff member comes with responsibilities.

Part of those responsibilities include, being a Mod(-erator of ShinobiLegends), to be sure that the rules are being followed, among other reasons.

Since I have re-started playing this game, I have found more rules being broken than in the entirety of the time I played before.
Whether you like it or not, being a Staff Member is a job. No you don't get paid for it (Which do not define a job) but you are entitled to enforce certain things and concepts.

If a Staff Member is inactive, they are not doing their job, or fulfilling their duties. Simple enough.

I am not saying "get rid of inactive mods", no. I am saying that something needs to be done so there is more activity among the staff members. Maybe move the inactive ones to the inactive list and get a new, more active set of members.

Which is why Neji added the Inactive Moderator part on the staff list. Now it should be used.

It's a problem, but as I am also not fully here (currently doing stuff on LoB) it is a problem.

Finding good people is also =)

I'd rather have a few not-so-active people on I can trust than more that are not that reliable (personality).

It is true, but Neji, are you spreading yourself to thin?
Also, how do you find good people? You really don't know how someone is until you've tested them, and you really don't get a test of them until they serve in the position.
What about deputy Mods? I know there is a Module for that. You can give a player one area and they have Moderator abilities in that area, and that area only.

You find good people through your interactions with them. =)
