Staff problem,

[NorthernMojo]

We have a pretty good number of active CA staff. Could use more, sure, but it's plenty for now given the amount of CA servers.

What mods play CA?

I only thought that it would decrease my chances because i was thinking that admins and other mods would think that an older person would be more mature, and would get picked over a younger person, if both of their app's were similar.

It's not the person's age that determines the maturity of a person. An 14 year old might be more mature than a 16 year old, and if it shows in the application, and the 14 year old has taken the right steps to get an Age Exception, the 14 year old might get mod. It all depends on the application, and interview. Also, I don't think Admins and Sr. Mods are that bias when it comes to age and new applications. It can be vigorous, yes, but if you are that dedicated, you will likely pass.

Well all I'm saying is that I've noticed a lack of staff on CA for the past few months. Not on the whole mcgamer network. If some staff members from say, US came over? The problem would be fixed.

If the Administrative and Sr. Staff recognizes that there needs to be more staff in CA, they might tell some people to move there to moderate. Either that, or they would start hiring some CA-based staff members once applications open up again, or the ones in pending get accepted. I try and help CA when there are no mods there, usually.

Believe it or not but actually a lot of the people who retired were the younger mods. Most of the older people are still here.
also,

I got denied cause of age, that was the only reason I got. I am a lot more mature then other people i am told. Anyways I'm sick of getting spammed on ca servers and if this problem isn't fixed other people will be to.

You were denied for more reasons than that. Please recheck your declined mod app again and tell the truth. We don't like people lying here.

I just need to wait till September so I can apply normally, due to 1 offence an age exception can't get accepted :c

In this hypothetical situation where two differently-aged individuals submitted applications of equal quality, then they both should be accepted.

The current age limit will stay the same, I understand you see that people are resigning, that does not mean though, that it is directly related to the age requirement for Moderators.

dat grammar dough.

Anyways, just so you know are are age exceptions available they are just hard to get.
If you are committed enough to be under 15 and a mod, then you can go for an age exception.

Not sure this was said, but Dave is dyslexic, so the grammar will be bad, its not something to point out.

What he was trying to get at, is with all these moderators resigning, the age limit should be reduced to let more hopeful applicants apply to make up for the mods that are resigning.

We should rename this thread from, "Staff problem" to "Age Limit problem", considering there doesn't seem to be any problems with the current staff being discussed, but just another topic about age limits.

I think I got t all sorted out now. A lot of the younger people retired and it happened to be that CA had a lot of young staff. So the fact that they retired just lower the amount on ca, I guess I had it backwards

I know that, but by saying this, you are wanting quantity over quality, which is what we are trying very hard to avoid doing.
