This is something I see more and more often posted on the site which is really annoying me.




I see multiple members telling staff to "Do More" and "Do This/That" - I'm sorry, but unless you are staff you have no idea about the amount of work that we all actually do.

People seem to forget that just like everyone else, we are people with real lives, education or employment and issues outside of just TTG. We have our own stuff to deal with ontop of the drama we recieve from apparently "not doing enough".

It's quite amusing though, people will complain about us not dealing with certain topics - but when we check the logs there was not a single report made on the topic. The staff aren't robots (except System) - If we don't have people reporting topics then sometimes mistakes do happen and topics are on the forums which shouldn't be.

It just really annoys me that people complain about the lack of work staff do, when they have no idea about the stress/harrassment/issues that being staff can bring to you.

I especially love when people say "Oh, I'd be a better staff member than x" - I'm almost 99% sure that within a day they would have performed at least 1 demotion worthy action and would be removed from staff. Being staff is not as easy as it seems. Whoever we have as staff, we have for a reason.

Anyways, Rant Over, Time to go drown in the amazing scottish weather.

I was the same way until I actually got Staff recently, and let me just say it is not the easiest thing to keep up with.

Nice rant Dale.

More staff is not the best answer.

With more staff we are open to more security issues, more attempts to hack staff and more issues if staff are not completely dedicated to helping out as they could delete important topics.

Like i said, we have who we have for a reason.

Well whenever I ask the staff for help they never help me, but I guess it's because they're very busy
