And as the AU senior staff member, I agree with everything you have said. We totally DO need more AU staff, the problem is we just don't have very many applicants who both meet the required age and have a decent application. I specifically have been pushing for more AU staff, you might have noticed Arb1t3r, Jameslam, Benny52000 and Hootie joining the AU team recently.
As for the AU mods going "extinct", it is true that the older serving staff (we are a tight group, yes) have not been on as often. You do have to remember that some of us have been moderating these servers from June last year, so we may not play as relentlessly as we used to. I hope that addresses some of the other remarks on this post about the AU staff not being on MCSG but on other servers, such as the Tekkit, Survival and Creative servers, as well as other communities. They need a break from moderating sometimes. A few staff have also stepped down recently. And perhaps it's coincidental you don't see as many of us anymore, as we now have 12 servers so decreasing the chance of seeing one of us in game.
So yeah, don't berate us too much. We may not have been as active this past month or so, but even so our best source of moderating is from you guys poking us on TS, or recording and screenshotting offenders yourselves.
