Why are so many staff members so inactive?

[Sheep]

Nothing personal against anyone but I was surprised to see how many staff members haven't logged on for a month or more while some others haven't posted for up to six months.

Is there a reason staff members don't seem to be held to any activity standards? It's understandable that managing a Pokémon forum is just a hobby but there should still be at least some effort made to have a presence and not mysteriously disappear for months at a time. I'm sure a lot of room could be made for other users who would be more active and therefore do more with their rank.

The forum is quiet and could use more participation from the staff side. I'd love to see it grow but the effort needs to come from staff first, not members.

Thanks for reading!
