So, did you also miss the new rule? GETTING DEMOTED AFTER ONLY BEING INACTIVE FOR 1 DAY? I was really busy, I have school, you know, and I bet you'd understand if you were in school.

That wasn't the reason Crash chose to demote you. She chose to demote you because of long-term inactivity and a puny mod count. We had to decide which mod to demote, and I chose Mr Me, not you. Crash decided to demote both. Sorry. :-/

Long-term inactivity? I'm on every day... even though some days I don't post.

The reason why is because you don't post. Although you're on every day, you don't maintain an active presence on the board.

Your in school how many hours? At most 8? I work 12 hour day/night shifts. Add on to that an Hour drive to work and an hour drive back. That's 14 hours right there.

Honestly when I was in school I was able to get on more than I can now, but I still get on. Also that's not the reason you were demoted. Me and Swim do most of the modding so there's really no reason for having any mods right now. If we need staff than I'll do the smart thing and find one in a different time zone so there's not conflict such as "A staff member wasn't online" or "There's to many staff online right now"

You didn't even contact me first, you just demoted me.

I'm at school 6 hours. Then I have to do my school work for about 1-2 hours. After that, I usually read a book or watch a movie for about an hour and a half. On weekends, I'm usually busy, gone away. I don't get much time in my life on the computer.

I don't have to contact you in order to demote you. Why would I? You can see it in your profile and apparently your going to post about it.

"Oh hey hows your day going? Oh that reminds me, I'm going to demote you today so because you wanted to be contacted to see what's in your profile I'll just let you know now Okay? Good Day :)"

^ I'm not sure that kind of a message is worth my time. You were going to PM me anyways as you already have. If your really that busy why would you want to be a staff member on a forum? Your just taking the spot of someone who could be here doing something instead. Focus on real life first as I've said before. Don't let Forum Chat get in your way and don't take responsibility you can't handle.

Let me put it in another way because you think this forum has a lot about animals: If you don't have the time for that cute little puppy than why take on the responsibility of taking care of it. You wouldn't want it to suffer because your So busy would you? You wouldn't deprive it of the attention it needs or neglect it and let it suffer would you?

By being a staff member on any site you must think of how much time you can spend on it. If you don't come online or post fervently than your not helping the site or doing your job. What you are doing is letting it suffer because we basically have someone hanging out in the staff forum doing nothing and someone's taking up space in the mod seat. Staff have a responsibility they must attend to and if that can't be met than they need to be booted.

Me and Swim have been doing most of the work. I do a lot of the things that you guys can clearly see such as the theme. Swim is doing a lot of background work. We wouldn't have the domain or ad removal without him so be sure to thank him for that. I happen to post more because of testing and because most of my posting is while you guys are at school or me telling off a spammer. My Inbox is also full of things that I need to go through and clean out from members, spammers, and bots. Recently Swim and Mighty go into a fight and that had to be taken care of. I had even more messages in my inbox and also had to find away to get them to agree. I hate it when members fight with everyone and when staff fight. Even worse when staff fight with members. Online I'm thinking of what's best for the site and everyone else. If a Staff member isn't needed than they will be removed. That includes without warning. Honestly the only reason to send someone a Contact is if it's a warning or a question. Me as the Admin can remove people without warning if I see fit.

Just because I'm not posting doesn't mean I am stalking your every move, determining my next course of action...
