Either someone whacks theymos on the head[1], and he realizes that his policies are absurdly stupid, or he steps down. Until one of these two happens, not much is going to change here.

[1] Before some crybaby screams 'violence', this was obviously not meant literally.

I go with whacking his head. Who will? There should be someone who have a great voice here to take the initiative doing so. Stepping down would be hard to do (if you know what I mean).

I think they are simply understaffed. I have seen staff members react quickly to reports and all of my reported posts were always dealt with within hours. The main problem IMO is they have not enough privileges. More people should be able to restore accounts and more people should be put to work to actively remove spam instead of waiting for reports from other users. I know there's enough money to pay them and some people would surely work for tips, just to make thee experience better for all of us.

I have already suggested to add atleast 1 more admin making it 3. One for developing forum software and as a chief administrator (which is theymos), another for support (recovering hacked account and etc.) and lastly an admin who will be hands on implementing rules and the trouble of doing so (ban hammer, ban appeals and etc.)

I remembered there was this person (I can't remember who) who said that where will they get money to pay them. ("Will it be me?" , he added.) The forum's income is more than ten(s) of thousands every week. I think that's enough to just add one more person. You see, admins are needed, an active one. Base on what I see, mods can't do much.

Not sloppily, as you see many of these Asian--no offense to Asians--shitposters plop onto the forum. It's clear that they're silly and ignorant and only put in as much effort as they have to in order to get paid.

No need to generalize Asians tho. I've known some Asians who have a top notch English both oral and written. Asians are not all about Chinese, Japanese and Koreans (no offense) there are those whose accent is not what you think but rather a neutral one. There are even native English speakers who aren't a master of their own language.

The point is that no need to be... Though influences around your country can affect your mastery in English.

By the word, "many" then yes there are a lot but I try to understand them. Having a sloppy english and doing a shit post at the same time, double problem and worst combination a shitposter can have (imo).
