Speaking more seriously... There's a specific workload created by the acitivity level of users which reachs an equilibrium point when mods take on a certain amount of that load. Twesterm has said that he did not feel like he was pulling a lot of weight, so his stepping down from his position probably hasn't affected the larger load very much. Naznatips probably has a pretty good idea of how busy things owuld need to be before he brought on another mod. More, he probably has a list of likely candidates for modship in case it ever comes up. I doubt that he decides them on the spot. |
Oh definately I was slacking. I feel a bit bad saying this but there were days where I would log on, see 8-10 jobs in the queue, most of which required reading through an entire long thread, didn't want to deal with that, so just left and read Kotaku or some other site.
Most people don't realize the amount of work that goes into making some moderations and get mad when things take a while and I just have a tremendous amount of respect for the mods here, especially the ones that are sticking with it.
