I have been lucky in that I have not had to choose new mods for a very long time. FAKKU has been around for more than 6 years, and most of the mods were chosen in the first year when it was just beginning to grow. Nikon, Mike, Raze, Mattarat, tsujoi, Kaimax, KLoWn, and Gambler all created their accounts 6 years ago. Waar, Sindalf, Tegumi, Kenjugs, and TheDarkStarAlchemist created their accounts 5 years ago.
Think about that. They say no one works a job for more than 2 years before getting bored and moving on, I know that's true for me. I have had many periods since creating FAKKU where I stopped focusing on it to do other things. Whether it be work, school, relationships, or other projects. I don't know what it is that has kept such amazing staff around for so long, but I am incredibly grateful that they are still here and still care. At this point I trust my moderators and admins unconditionally (except for Sindalf when he goes ADC).
I don't know when we'll need more staff, but it will probably be pretty soon. I just hope the new recruits live up to the expectations their predecessors have set.
I totally forgot about KLoWn and yes I know you've had an amazing staff but the way I see it a lot of the older ones are falling off which at the same time that it's not the biggest thing since not a lot is happening right now it's still a bit weird and worrysome to me, I mean as I stated earlier we don't have a single admin right now that actual does work as far as I know, I've heard Nikon only does polls these days. I guess they are just getting bored, like you stated earlier or they just don't like the community, I know a lot of normal old members quit because of that.
Either way, I hope you select good people when you do decide you need new staff, this whole topic was just my opinion on the whole thing.
(Sindalf is a real hit and miss when he's the ADC)
