Alright, so I really hate to bring them into this, but I was talking to Justin about it and he seemed to agree. Yeah, they have lives, but it seems like they go for weeks at a time without coming here. It's been almost a week for both of them. What if something important comes up? Justin made a point about having 8 admins. Yeah, it seems outrageous, but what if only 3 were active. Here's how he states it.
QUOTE have a minimum of active admins... don't have provisions for removing admins, have provisions for adding more. it doesn't matter if there are 8 admins if only 3 are active. your opinions? |

so 8 is just a number justin used to prove a point. he's not saying HEY CB WE NEED 8 ADMINS. hes saying that if 8 admins are needed, then so be it if only 3 are active. the 5 others wont be doing anything. hes not saying that jusun needs to go out and find 6 other admins.

How can he assume they wont all be active or if any would be active at all? Exactly...he cant. Even though I get what he is trying to say even though it doesnt really make much sense to promote people only to assume more than half wont be active. |

Even though I get what he is trying to say even though it doesnt really make much sense to promote people only to assume more than half wont be active. I think there should be some kind of procedure for admins to deal with inactivity then, such as 1) checking in with cB at least so-and-so many times a week, 2) appointing a temp admin if he/she goes away for a while... etc. Since admins' words are the last in adding new staff members, it is crucial that they know what goes on around cB, and that can only happen if he/she is actually around and participating in cB business. I know admins probably come by cB whenever they have the chance, but maybe, just maybe, a quota needs to be placed on the number of visits and participation? Though this is a violation of sorts, it would lessen, if not eliminate the problem of inactivity. |
