Staff/Admin Appreciation - Suggestion for Future URE?
 

Hi everyone,

I had this idea just now that we should do a Staff/Admin Appreciation thing. I was thinking maybe whoever runs the User-Run event this year could somehow incorporate it into their event theme?

The staff do so much for us on this site! Literally everything from pixeling the contribution items, event items, and/or event common recolors to answering all of our questions and feedback to planning multiple events a year with themes, backgrounds, storylines, games, prizes, playing the Menewshan NPCs, moderating threads, dealing with rule-breakers, incorporating our suggestions, taking the initiative to do nice things for us like Channah's auctions, and overall making Menewsha an amazing place for everyone...and all on their own time.

I know we often express our gratitude in larger numbers for them after big events and such, but I'm not sure if we have done a bigger community-wide Staff/Admin appreciation event yet.

I only have a few ideas so far. For example, a Wishing Tree dedicated to the staff/admin here. Or art contests where we all draw the staff/admins so they get some nice artwork for free and funsies :D

I don't know, what do you all think?

Can we just throw panties at yan for an hour? That should suffice for him.

...aaaaaaaaaaaaand now I have this image in my head of yan cosplaying as Happosai now. Thanks for that. [gonk]

I'd say Yan might be worse. Yan runs around half-naked too [lol]

Yan spies on me in my sleep....

-refeshes 5 times- There we go... that's the image context I needed... [lol]

He also steals panties in the Dev Style.

...aaaaaaaaaaaaand now I have this image in my head of yan cosplaying as Happosai now. Thanks for that. [gonk]

I mean there could be a game thread where we all send different panties to yan lol

each person sends him a different panty and we try to get as many different users to send one? I don't know...or maybe if we have a lot of new users who can't afford panties, we could just have a form that says "Send A Panty To Yan" they can post, and then we'd have URE gold set aside to donate for more panties

Salvete that sounds like a wonderful idea.

Theres only 1 staff member that stands out to me - and she's fucking leaving because the whole lot of us are unappreciative bastards. I'm seriously starting to hate this place! :(

Wait who is leaving?

Hard to appreciate things when you have no idea what's going on because mene wants to continue this "we've got plans" charade...
So I log on every day waiting to see results.

Nephila is leaving for an undetermined length hiatus.

So we lost the person who was doing recolors for the next event. Did she finish?

Right now just keep an eye out for the email coming about a week before the event. That's all I can reveal at the moment.

A whole bunch of stuff happened Poet. Stuff I didn't see, and some stuff I did.
But yeah, she's gone on hiatus :(

Roachi - I see. I haven't really seen what happened so I'm just hearing about hiatus here quit there from some people and a little concerned.

Shadami - Hopefully it's not at the end of the month... or I'm gonna miss it.

Hmm I wonder if it's no items for Halloween? lol

@Poet - I think it was a number of things to be honest. And she just broke/had enough :(

Well we might get items. The next event according to what I read would be no items.
Though I suppose they could move some old holiday items into the shop for the discount.

Were we not appreciating the staff enough?

Ah...

Yeah that much I got.

So... perhaps they should have said something.
We can't fix a problem that they keep a secret from us.

Yep.

Activity has become worse also.

The pixel faeries are working hard. :D never fear!... uhh Menewsha is here. Why did that have to come out as a cheer in my head. oy vey.

Trying to be positive I guess sha :) ^^

i'm always trying to be positive, but I've never been a cheerleader so I don't know why I always go that route o.O It is very confusing to me.

You must be taking Salvete's "How to be super positive all the time" class :D
