Let's just say the personal issues were important enough that not checking in wasn't an issue. In my case, I took a complete break from being on line, with the exception of checking email every couple of days.

It's not uncommon for us to recommend that certain staff members take a month off. They rarely do it, but the option is there if they need to take a break.

My staff can take a hiatus , but if they just vanish for a month they are removed, unless they inform admin before hand.

Our staff is ran more strict then most, but this even carrys to the admin/site owner all staff has to be quality. As the owner if I broke a rule, I would expect swift action and punishment.

In essence, however, since you own the site and created the rules, you can also alter them, therefore you in effect would not be breaking them :p

Satan

Yes , but then that is giving the impression staff is better then others ;) I would rather they ban me hehe.

Actually I was banned on my site once for 3 days for telling someone off........ was funny and so worth it. The owner being owned !

I like that point of view...
