I agree that leaving can be due to lack of motivation, but this is rarely the case.Quote:

I am not attacking you, or getting worked up and now you are just using something silly like that as a way to impress people, as well as judging me and making false assumptions about my friendship. I am making a point that people leave for different reasons and so it is unfair to blame lack of motivation on this for all cases. Some people in the department work so bloody hard, spend so much time doing the job and really care about making the department a success as it should be, and it gets very frustrating when other people drag it down, or when people don't recognise this and it can get quite negative when people are constantly slating the department.Quote:

That is where a warning system should come into place if people are constantly not pulling their weight. People should not be in a department if they don't care about it, or don't want to do the work. It should not be seen as a chore, it should be something that the individual enjoys doing, or there is no point. It is unfair of you to generalise like that, when there could be perfectly valid reasons for people leaving at the time. This does not mean that they will not put in as much effort as others if they were to return! If anything the experience they gained proves invaluable and sometimes people just go through bad times.Quote:
they obviously dont care about the department enough and are probably just lazy and dont want to do the work
lol whatever it wasnt even aimed at chris so i dont see why bolt had to sing his praises
I don't regard Chris or Matt or you for that matter Martin as those who resign time and time again and just leave about a month later. I have two people in my mind for that and they resigned a while back. I think, really you should have a time period on when you can resign then come back if it's anything about 3 months or something make them trial again or at least if they were a SMOD get them to be a normal moderator unlike some who can easily return as a SMOD as and when they wanted going back a while.
Martin I think you need to take on feedback, negative or not - he wasn't going on about Chris, he mentioned no names and it was Chris himself who assumed Graham didn't do anything really but really that's not what the feedback thread is for. I know Chris is a great moderator but this is about the department in general. I could say that about most/all of the moderators really.
I really do think applications need to be open though, you have 2 moderators in Habbo and like I said earlier that's more active than some of the others that have two as well. The only one I think could probably survive on one is the graphics section and really @Sky; is doing a great job in keeping that running.
If @brandon; doesn't want an assistant don't make him, but maybe a SMOD to help a bit maybe?
fair do's on him taking the full pressure but i dont think it should be if he wants one, it should be if he needs one and feedback in this thread suggests he might doQuote:

@hah;, Apologies, I wasn't sure because you used the rolleyes emote. :P
Anyway lets not make this personal to one moderator, it is about the entire department. @Samanfa;, I don't think it is necessary to put a limit on when someone can return to the department and I don't see the point in putting them on trial again if the manager is aware of their previous experience and capabilities in the department.
In terms of another smod/assistant, I think Brandon should be able to judge that for himself but if the pressure of keeping up with the work load becomes obvious then I don't think there would be any other option.
Elaborate?Quote:

Then to finish off your poor moderation you decide to move my thread which I made to raise awareness into some back-water forum. Terrible.Quote:
