You need to understand that we actually have lives, and we give out as much free help and support that we have time for, and sometimes even enjoy releasing our own plugins. Take Arkshine for example ... your aware that he is maintaining AmxModX for us along with other modules, his own very popular plugins, on top of being an approver?

I understand. I'm not saying 24/7 active on forums and do what ever you do all day long, no.
I said that really in-active approvers.

Yes there are some approvers that dont connect for long time, but they probably have them own reasons. And probably have spoke with main administrators.

How can you be so sure that they have spoken with the administrators?
Unless you get me an administrator to tell me names that has reported that they will be in-active.

No one has to provide you with anything.

Then no one has ever reported their in-activity. So after all, I'm right?

Who cares if they're inactive? Why are you making a big deal about it or even worrying about?

Maybe one day they will come back and approve plugins without having the same knowledge they had when they were accepted on being a plugin approver. Maybe they will vouch for people, even tho they forgot everything about PAWN coding.

Just a little thinking. I'm just worried about the forums and this community of coding. I would like to help and manage the forums up like move topics to the right section, enforce rules, respond to everyone, but mostly I won't be moderator because I'm not that active enough and still a new member. Think about it.

I think you are worried more because your plugin is not reviewed/[un]approved enough fast.

Nope. I know that I'm not the only one in here, so that's not the reason why I'm worried.
The reason why I'm worried is stated in my previous post.

[ About Moderation ] If you look at some old plugins that are popular or approved, you will notice
that the plugins are not working anymore. People will still download them as they see they are
approved and they are not aware that the plugin don't work( Newbies, Non-Coders, People
who don't see the code ). So they will probably register and ask why. This can save so
much time.
