    Not really. It seems like there's usually an admin or a CK on at almost any hour, even when it's like 4 am. Of course, considering how spread out they are geographically, that's not so hard to believe at all. There's usually somebody I can bug via chat or IM if need be, too.

    They always take care of me, like loving parents nurturing their child to grow into something they can be proud of. Sometimes when I ask them to do something they tell me no, but it's probably because my teenage RM mind (it was a kids mind when I was a regular member) doesn't know everything and they have more experience. Then there's C_lout. Oh, how Cl_out teases me. Like the aunt who likes to get drunk and have a good time.

    You should think yourself lucky RSL spent his hyper fit time PMing you. You ungrateful little thing!

    I've never urgently had to PM an admin

    I get the PM's and then leave them for a week and if they chase me up after that long then I suppose they want me for something enough to actually make it worth reading the PM.

    I never have this problem. Whenever I need an admin, I'm always around.

    I've never had a problem. I just wait until an admin is online whilst I am before I send anybody a PM.

    I think you just volunteered. Congratulations on your return to staff, Unne.

    I've never had to PM an Admin or CK for major reasons.

    See, I have Samuraid at my fingertips, which is ALWAYS a good thing when I need to ask a n00b question that can easily be answered in the Help Forum and the handy-dandy SEARCH button. That and technical problems.

    well when the pages take two minutes to load every thirty seconds because I've got a new PM and it's one of about 40 PMs that day, it could get a little aggravating xD

    I kinda miss them though ;_;
