    It's been almost a month since two of our mods, Izar and GL, have been on.

    Izar's already "officially" left GSSF, and GL... does anyone know what he's doing?

    Will these two be replaced, or what?

      GL is long gone, Izar is officially gone. Avener is long gone as well, and Ivan was never really here. I think Mystic and Eugine can handle it though.

        Izar is gone for good I believe, and I haven't heard from GL in ages. They will be removed from the moderator list in due time, though not right at this moment. I am about to leave for a week as I will explain in a news post tomorrow, so Nick and I will probably discuss choosing a new moderator around New Years. We will be sure to let everyone know when we know more ourselves.

          Not to be a back seat admin, but I really don't think another moderator is necessary. As long as Eugine and MW stay as active as they are, things will be fine. I haven't seen any crazy spam or flaming in a long time.

            But wouldn't another moderator be needed, in a situation of Eugine or MW leaving for a while?

            It still is important to have more than 2 mods.

              They don't quite need to be replaced, it just looks sort of bad to have them as moderators when they don't do anything.

              I'm just interested in what the situation is currently; I'm not exactly suggesting anything.

              These forums are actually somewhat active. Just yesterday (or was it the day before that?), 8 members were on simultaneously. Huzzah!!

                So the both of them left permenantly? I thought Izar was on some trip, or something.

                Anyways, the forums are getting a bit more active. Thanks to people like Justin (for those of you who remember) XD

                    Hm, i agree with Agatio.
                    This place isn't as bustling as it used to be. I think reducing the amount of moderators would be a good idea since having so many isn't really necassary. Even if this place is still somewhat active, the people who remain here are mostly veterans and i doubt they need constant babysitting.... right?

                      Actually, we had a troll on just the other day. He was banned though.

                        Well, i think two active moderators are more than enough to deal with that.

                          Well, they seemed to get rid of him pretty quickly, so I guess they're satisfactory.

                            The forum isn't very busy anymore. So unless we see a 3rd revival 2 mods is more than enough.

                            There's enough mini-modding going on around here to make up for it ;P

                                Izar's already "officially" left GSSF, and GL... does anyone know what he's doing?

                                Will these two be replaced, or what?

                                I talked to GL two days ago. He's got work and a lot of school work.


                                Plan to see him before 2006.

                                    Ive seen worse

                                    The same gorilla but instead of the fox its tom cruise getting squirt in the face.

                                    2 mods seem to be doing ok, but if there have always been atleast 3 I dont think changing the system now is needed either. Its nice to keep to a set amount of things like moderators.

                                        We don't have any troublemakers or large enemies that will mass spam this forum. This is a pretty quiet forum, there is no need for extra mod positions. It's useless.
