I have a suggestion I've been thinking about for a couple of weeks. Why don't staff at OPRP do a rotation, this would be both beneficial to both staff, and the normal role-player on this site. What I was thinking was that staff do a rotation on a weekly bases, while it could be a bi-weekly, or monthly rotation it would still help the two groups.

The rotation could be based on having one group of staff doing the apps one week, and another group another, and then another group the week after that. While obviously people will be busy with their daily lives, and staff might not be able to go with a certain rotation, I believe this problem can be fixed too.

To my knowledge there are hidden topics available to staff, in one of those topics the staff rotation could be arranged for the following week/month, while there might be things that could pop up in that time for certain people, which means that they can't do a rotation, there are ways around that, from simply changing the rotation, to having someone fill in their spot.

The reason I believe this would be beneficial for both groups is due to the fact that staff could get bored of grading, and going through character apps, this option would make staff feel less reluctant to go through things, and also lighten up the load on staff that are off the rotation.

While people might think this would lead to sloppy work due to the fact that some staff will feel that work is forced on them. But due to experience that I have had being a mod on other forums, something I have noticed is that staff will feel like doing work more after a time when they haven't done any.

Similar things have been suggested in the past, but have been denied. Staff members work at their own pace, on their own time. If one staff member was assigned to his least favorite section, SL gradings, for the week, but really wanted to do character apps instead, then you're ultimately preventing that staff member from being productive, because they can't do character apps, and odds are they won't do the SL gradings anyway.

Additionally, there's the highly-likely chance that there will be a poor grouping, meaning that one section of the forum will go unchecked for an entire week.

However, I do agree with your final paragraph, but for reasons stated above, this will not function well on our forum.

Then Tommy tries to think up a plan to defeat this guy and after a few seconds, thought of the perfect plan to knock him out which was to punch him in the back of the head. He then out maneuvers him by side stepping to the back of him and punches him right on the back of his head perfectly which then knocks him out for the rest of the bar brawl. "That took care of him, now who next?"

I do see your point, but you might be misunderstanding what I mean with my suggestion, I meant that one group of staff does the work on the site one week while the others rest, and then the next week another group of staff take over.

The idea has still been suggested before and denied. As chips said, you would make it to where people who are on staff who wanted to do work but quote on quote couldn't and those who were too busy but were expected too.

I understand your point, but that's were communication comes in, of course if a staff member becomes busy in the middle of their rotation there's nothing anyone can do about that. But say they become busy a little before it's their turn for the rotation, they could simply tell a staff member that's their senior(Admin) and they could perhaps put a non-busy staff on that rotation.
