Derrick was mostly right about his assersions of my questioning. But I had this idea in the back of my head when I made this thread.... How about first by linking forum karma/fame state to in-game karma/fame state and have a system in which when someone has a perfect record (no strikes against them...

With an average of 800 IPs per day in-game and around 150 users per day on the forums, roughly 18.75%

What usually prevents me from paging a GM is when I submit the report and it says no GMs are online. The other times that are frustrating are when the GM page queue is 2 people, but there's no response in over a half an hour (I'd prefer GMs just stay logged out so it says no GMs are even available ...

Not at all. It simply outlines how serious we are to protecting the users and ensuring that they have a delightful experience with the staff.

There are several reasons why our staffing levels are what they are: The less amount of GMs, the less chance for corruption We are currently able to get to /most all/ pages within a reasonable time with some exceptions The current staff members have been around for at least a minimum of two years (e...

I see my name didn't make it to the GM list.... Well, its been fun. Guess I will have to retire to my small brick.

There is currently a trunk line down that is the provider of that entire region in Michigan (where the data center is located). It is currently being worked on and should be up in a couple of hours.
