    Think Tank- Absence of Admins

    A think tank is the popular name for research foundations, generally private, that gather experts to study policy questions and make recommendations. There are think tanks representing positions across the political spectrum, and they are sometimes funded according to the viewpoints they represent.

    I thought we could use this idea here to come up with ways to get around the absence of the admins during the nighttime hours of England when most admins sleep. (They have lives so its perfectly understandable to me.) Pour your ideas out here. This way out of like 10 dumb ideas we get one good one that may solve the problem. Maybe we can find a less practical than having an admin on, but figure out some sort of ingame system.

    Admins if you think this idea is stupid lock the thread by all means.
    ...they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire...

    My Idea: "Play relaxed, ignore anoying people, if they break a lot of rules post a ban request"

    "Get more admins on at that time, making sure they aren't fucktards first"
    The problem is, we need to be on during those times in order to judge corretly. :/
    I code your babies.
