    Management do not listen I reported via PM and the report button a thread that breaks UK and international law and nothings been done

    The fansite way I read it with great interest do not say they abide by it, if they do why is there VIP still, this is against the fansite way. You say leave if I don't like the rules, where did I say I hate rules, I mearly mentioned there was to many.

    It doesnt take over 40 members of staff to do this job, the forum isnt a hustle of activity like Casual Discourse, SomethingAwful (Worlds biggest forum with 25 staff members) and what LivingWithStyle used to be.

    They keep the community happy? I see nothing but "Staff are picking on me", "staff make bad choices".

    So please do not hide behind the fansite way, as this clearly isnt the case here.

    That's not strictly true. For example, I could (if I wanted to) change people's names, give them rep points or change their usertitles with the access I have now. The problem is that if I did that AND nvr (and any other editors you wish to hire) tried the same, it'd either get done twice (e.g. 30 rep points instead of 15) or not at all. Its a classic case of too many cooks, we've tried it before and it just didn't work. Having one editor might take slightly longer (usually within 24 hours unless nvr has personal/PC problems) but everything gets done right

    I don't think you quite realise that "the biggest forum in the world" will most likely be run by adults. Habboxforum is run mostly by teenagers and maybe 1 or 2 adults.

    The worlds biggest forum is run by people who are aged between 16-19 and the owner is 35.

    Heyy, don't shoot the messenger That's the line that's usually taken when that issue comes up, and I can completely see their point of view. In an ideal world, one editor would know everything that the other had done and it'd work fine, in reality it just doesn't pan out like that. The current system works fine until nvr is away and a replacement isn't assigned immediately, which is where you get the delays, but they're usually few and far between.

    You can't compare this forum to other forums because, sorry guys, a good amount of members on this forum are more immature than on other forums. Also, we have younger staff. SomethingAwful has guys 16-19? Congrats, most of our staff haven't turned 16 yet. We're not based on a community where we have a mature audience yet, and therefore not only is there more moderation needed but also more people are needed to do it, checking on each other because judgement is not perfect yet, and you can't expect them to be.

    On a side note with VIP Features, I don't do features, Nick does, I do VIP additions. I'm not throwing him under the bus, I'm just clearing that up. Its not the fact that two isn't enough (if we used two for features the multiple people causes confusion reason would make no sense as we would already use multiple people. However with this system Nick and I have different jobs.) We tried using two/three people for features before (Barkseh, Baving, and myself) and it was hectic. Yes we can post in usernotes as we do them, however that trebles, maybe quadruples the time spent on each person, as well as forcing us to jumble between more windows which means things get slowed down much more and also that each admin is less productive, meaning we need more admins to cover all the jobs. Admin efficiency is a key issue as every admin is a vulnerability, so is every SMod but less so than an admin.

    I said yes because if a forum this size and everything didn't work then it would be chaos and i think the running of it by the Forum Admin, Moderators and even the staff replying to relevnt help forum is good
