The staff members are not small childrens with a lot of free time, we cant force them to leave college or works just to be in server every hours. It is already stressful to take care of server( solve problems, handle hackers/rule-breakers, insults ) after a tired day of works, moreover this is not their job and they get nothing from all this. They have tried their best to be online in the forum, IRC and server. The cooperation from players is needed to keep the server clean from rule breakers. They cant simply leave their job or college just to play a game and the admin cant ban player without evidence. So, if you dont report the rule breakers, the admin cant ban them due to the lack of evidence. There are few admins currently inactive due to personal reasons( mostly studies ), so the reports handling might be quite slow these days. The active admins are trying to cover the work of the inactive admins.
The admin application was closed because of few reasons. So, we used different way to choose admin & the new way is still suitable for now.
