I'm addressing this point because it has come up multiple times in the cbox in the past week.
First off, I would like to publicly thank Nam for handling this on almost every occasion. For standing up for the other admins, and trying to stop this.
Secondly, I want to remind everyone that the admins have lives too. We are not able to be here every second of every day. We are busy outside of the site and sometimes, life gets in the way. We are not able to grade every post the hour after you do it, the day you do it, and sometimes, even the WEEK you do it. Especially, if you post EVERY DAY. It is impossible to do.
I know that Boliko is taking a bit of a break to focus on school, something that is very important. I myself am about to come into a very important, busy, and stressful time and most likely will not be on much between Oct. 8th and Oct. 29th. Zach just said he's been busy at work. As for Geurin and Jorlaxl's lives outside of this, I'm not sure but they seem busy at well.
Complaining about the fact that you have threads that haven't been graded in DAYS is spamming, off-putting to new and potential members and frankly, annoying. I have a thread that hasn't been graded since near the end of August. But sometimes, things happen. Complaining constantly isn't the way to get your posts graded, it's a sure fire way to get banned.
There is a procedure to this. To see the steps you need to take, look at Geurin's carefully laid out instructions here: wodresurrection.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=rules&action=display&thread=3083
There are also things you can do while waiting to get graded. You can:
A. Start a new thread with members.
B. Work on your timeskip post.
C. Take a break, join another site and keep checking back.
D. Create a new character and work with them.
I ask that you all please be patient. We are working on it, but we do have lives. Thank you once again to those who have helped out in the c-box.
