As somebody who's been here for almost 2 years, I can safely say that one of the most prominent problems with the wiki is the fact that there's been quite enough staff members who haven't been meeting the "Active X times a week" requirement over the course of their moderation.

What's even worse in such situations, though, is that in order for an inactive staff member to be demoted, somebody has to write a demotion thread for them due to no rules preventing the recurring presence of inactive moderators.

In order to combat this issue, I've come up with the idea of a monthly staff check by the admins. The rules would be pretty simple: if a staff member didn't meet the aforementioned staff requirement, they'd first get a formal Demotion Warning - a message that tells the staff member to be more active the following month. If they still don't meet the requirement next month, they'd be demoted.

Of course, there are a lot of times when there's a good reason for inactivity. While I honestly don't have a solid idea of what to do in such situations, I believe that the admins determining whether the temporary inactivity was fine or too much would be the best solution to this problem. Besides, if a staff member can't be active for around a month or even more, should they even be staff in the first place?

Just to be clear, I say that the check should happen on the 1st of every month.

And that is all I have to say. If you may, please state your reasons for choosing to support or oppose this suggestion. If you want, you can also suggest a thing or two to improve my thread.
