Has there been times when you've had to run the place on your own for a period of time? Simply cause your team went on Vacation or some other thing? Or just cause you were unable to recruit someone at the time?
 
Yeah but usually I can't get an admin.

These days, though, Nukia is big enough to support itself when I'm not around, if only due to highly devoted members and staff.
 
I've never, ever had a forum that I have had multiple staff on that actually did any work. I didn't bother to remove them, either. I've always been on my own and that's how I like it, although my brother does all the modding with the folders because we share a host. It's just that my forum looks like freeforum garbage. :S

Newb at owning forums? My staff never go well but I'm going to leave then there because they're reliable members and they might do something eventually, now and then.

Whattt??? Your grammar/spelling makes no sense :shrug:
 
I think what s/he is saying is that they are going to leave the forum and let the remaining staff take over and sort things out and have done with forums.

Although I myself am not 100% clear either.

I would never do such a thing! 'Tis like putting my own baby up for adoption.
 
I think he/she means that his/her staff were just friends and he wouldn't actually trust them to do work but he would trust them not to blow up the forum.

Hm, I see...I can agree with you on that point 😛
 
Yeah my one is A sad besides it was my first forum

My first forum was going great i though bust of activity sadenly since it was my first forum you goto learn somewhere Everyone left and didnt come back

Inlcuding the staff i went on a adveritisng spree and noone came back

So basicly i had to close it learn by my mistakes and start agasin (the forum in my sig which I will be sticking to)
 
I'm running my own general discussion forum right now and I haven't got a team of staff members. It's quite difficult, but hey, at least you get to make all the decisions. 😀
 
I some times am on my own because staff having holiday or their Internet is down

But as I only have 70 members I can cope on my own and sometimes if my internet is down my staff look after things for me
 
I have not been on my own running my forum for quite awhile. We have enough staff members for this to not happen. I think it has been down to only two staff members before though because three staff members either had vacation, work, or something sports related. I think it's been two years since I last left the other staff member(s) to run the forum while I was on vacation. I went on vacation for the weekend after I had my forum open for about two months, when I came back, the forum was dead. I have worked from that, and now have a developed staff team I feel I can trust when I am away. Oddly enough though, I have not went on vacation since then. I'm sure I'll still be a bit reluctant to go on vacation and be away from my forum for longer than a few days.
 
I'd be unable to do it on my board. My site simply gets too much traffic and there are far too many tasks for one person to do, even if I DIDN'T have to do things like sleep, eat, other essentials and even just look away from the screen for a few minutes. It's physically impossible. XD

Haha, yeah I would imagine with the size of your board. Even one day by myself would be impossible 😛
 
I'm the only administrator on my forum so I've been running my forum on my own since I made it. My moderators are good help but they couldn't update my forum through the admin panel so I feel like I've always ran my forum by myself!
