I hear what you're saying, and I understand that fewer responsibilities mean more time for other things. However, I don't share your perspective either.

The site administration team (MoM, HM, HoH, Management Team) inevitably requires time; otherwise, why would these roles be paid more than other staff positions (such as Professors and RC)?

In this respect, I find it absurd, though I recognize that there have been issues in the past. However, in your work as Backstory Leader, or mine as HoH, there are things we could do without asking the Leader because it becomes a waste of time. For example, you can no longer issue salaries for your team, while I, as HoH, can. I can only slightly modify my club topics, whereas you have the ability to do so.

I lose a lot of time sending messages to my leaders to get them to handle very simple tasks, such as pinning a topic.

I understand your point of view as well: as long as the leaders aren’t complaining, it likely means they're okay with it. But in reality, they probably won’t tell you they don’t have time to do some tasks because they have no choice but to complete them. Besides, people rarely complain in general.

You mention the possibility of involving the authorities, but I'm unsure who you’re referring to. The police? Indeed, it can be useful to contact them depending on the situation, but I hadn’t gone that far in my example. I was simply trying to indicate that if someone posts a message like “Big *****” or other obscene content, there’s not much they can do. If you meant "authorities" as in Mugs, I'd like to remind you that we are an international group and that it's common for us to be unavailable at the same time due to work, or because we're asleep. But an obscene message has no place on a profile, and not being able to address it immediately does leave an issue.

I’m not saying the problem didn’t exist before, but simply that we could reduce the likelihood of many people seeing this kind of message.

As a member of the site management team, it’s our duty to protect the younger users.

Finally, you wrote: "Fewer rights entail less responsibility, reduced workload, and diminished commitment."


I don’t mean to sound harsh, and I truly don’t want to come across as condescending. But if you want less engagement or fewer responsibilities, then perhaps being part of the management team isn’t for you.

We all have different sites. Matching authorisations to responsibilities rather than colour would demonstrate confidence in the team and show that they are also important to the site. This would allow Leaders to concentrate on their tasks and on more important issues.


Each could manage their site independently.
