I can respect having to do things in real life trumping having to do things on a forum, but don't make your excuse for not doing it being "having a very disheartening community".
Where the fuck did Joey say this?
Read: IRC. I'm pretty certain Joey already answered to this anyhow since he knows what I'm talking about more than you would.

We are never going to add in other staff members just because we need more activity. Quality comes first. You can't just name anyone, you have to name someone active on this forum that we can trust to be responsible. I don't want more assholes like krazykat causing more problems than they can ever solve.
You have to understand that if you want us to do something about it, you're going to have to point us to someone we can believe in.
Seeing as how there's no one immediately around to do this, you could make the job of the staff we have now easier by getting off their nuts.
First off I didn't realize you had to result to something personal between you and krazykat, but I won't go there and I won't answer any other questions about that.
If Joey doesn't have the time to do something on this forum that should have been done several
months ago, then he honestly needs to employ somebody that can do it. XerX offered his help to Joey, but Joey turned it down. We were never originally that bothered by it, but after many promises being broken and many changes going unchanged, maybe you can see why we're actually pestering the staff about this? Even GhostHawk himself has said things Joey has promised have not even been worked on.
Joey's excuse for the past many weeks, nay, months, has been that he has been busy with real life. While I can understand and respect that for the first or second month, the excuse is starting to wear out and it's frustrating that he has a lot of things to do that he not only promised to people but needs to do anyway as it would help this community quite a bit. If he can't upgrade the board or install a mod (which isn't that hard) after so many MONTHS OF PROMISING THAT SOON, he needs to get someone else to do that for him.
Another thing the staff can do instead of telling people to BACK OFF is to actually do something about the people that are complaining, such as maybe listening to what they are complaining about and then finding a possible fix. Plenty of people have offered their help, and I mean
plenty, yet you don't trust anybody? That won't get you anywhere, if you don't trust anybody, even the people that offer you help.

Care to elaborate on that? Give me a full fledged reason as to how I am in no position to tell you that.
