EVERYONE is demoted and Acmlm promotes people as HE sees fit.

Perhaps if you had asked why I was so inactive I would have been able to say "I moved the week before Thanksgiving and STILL have boxes to unpack even now." It may have kept me on staff, it may not have. But just... in the future, before you demote people, ask them what's up first, give them a notice (as in a PM), and when you DO have chats to reorganize staff, make more active staff members attend. Especially ones who may not always agree - like Phil, or Rydain, or BMF.

ADCOMSUBORDCOMPHIBSPAC is the longest acronym in the 1965 edition of the Acronyms, Initialisms, and Abbreviations Dictionary. It is a Navy term standing for Administrative Command, Amphibious Forces, Pacific Fleet Subordinate Command [Dickson]. Another acronym, PUMCODOXPURSACOMLOPAR, stands for "pulse-modulated coherent Doppler-effect X-band pulse-repetition synthetic-array pulse compression lobe planar array" (from Willard Espy). COMSUBCOMNELMCOMHEDSUPPACT (26 letters) stands for Commander, Subordinate Command, U.S. Naval Forces Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean, Commander Headquarters Support Activities [Charles Turner].

However, the world's longest acronym according to the Guinness Book of Words is NIIOMTPLABOPARMBETZHELBETRABSBOMONIMONKONOTDTEKHSTROMONT (56 letters, 54 in Cyrillic). Found in the Concise Dictionary of Soviet Terminology, it means: The laboratory for shuttering, reinforcement, concrete and ferroconcrete operations for composite-monolithic and monolithic constructions of the Department of the Technology of Building-assembly operations of the Scientific Research Institute of the Organization for building mechanization and technical aid of the Academy of Building and Architecture of the USSR [Stuart Kidd].

This part I don't quite agree with totally. I mean, Emuz always has the option of simply looking at the posts over the last month or so and decide for himself. I realize he may not have been active during that period, but that shouldn't prevent him from learning who was.

True. Aslong as he would do just that. The past few months. Not the whole postcount itself. (And actually participation in staff forum, of course, if new mods would be elected, you can't see that. But maybe it's just me that value that high ) As we've discussed many times, rydain has not much postcount but she's active lately and all that, yeah, I'm sure you get what I'm trying to say.

After all, if there were nothing BAD in that log, or nothing that wouldn't bother someone if it DID get out, then the people wouldn't be bitching about it in the staff forums, would they? Oh, let me tell you... they are NOT happy that the log got out. But, unfortunatley, not many people have probably read it by this point. It's too late in the thread and a lot of people are far too lazy to read the entire thing - especially a long conversation like that.

If, ahead of time, the poll about the staff overhaul clearly said "Not many changes will be made. This isn't actually an overhaul, it's more like a Spring Cleaning ordeal", how many people would have said yes to THAT? The people voted for a STAFF RECONSTRUCTION. That means tearing down your current foundation, taking the old blocks along with new ones, and placing them in the places they best fit. Not pulling out cornerstones and leaving their spot empty so the foundation can crumble~

Yiffy Kitten - I don't see you as a burden. For your sake, it might be best for you to take a break from the board until the dust settles and you get a chance to calm down, but I like having you around, and I would be disappointed to see you leave entirely.
