How many Staff members do you have?
 

I have 262 members and 7 staff including myself.

How about you?

if your staff post more than 15% of the entire threads of the forum, you have too much ma/ods...

if you are an admin and have more than 15% of the forum posts, you need a life.

Users may use RSS feeds like myself.

I currently have about 35% of all posts... I'm trying to get the community active, then I'll lay low, and work on the forum more.

Currently, my forum is new, so it's only me, and my friend who are staff, but on my old forum (had it about 7 months ago..) we had 1k members, and about 7 active moderators, 2 super mods, and 2 administrators, but we all had no lives and were super active :p So we didn't need many more. Plus, from 1k members, not all of them were active.

3 staff to about 50 members. (Yes, we are a very new site.)

We have about 90% staff, 8% habitual users and 2% occasional visitors. This is because our site is for customer support only, and once satisfied, they don't require our services for longer. ;)

14 Staff for about 80k users. I'm the top poster with about 2% of the posts. This works out fine for us, but I think it really depends on the forum for what is required.

11 staff with 1,633 members on my own forum. With quite a lot of the forum posts (because apart from vBulletin.org and vBulletin.com, it's the ONLY forum I post on).

Just me. I did have a few staff, but over time they have dropped off and I have not replaced them yet.

Traffic has been slow lately so it is not a problem for me to manage.

Only me. I fired my staff due to lack of dedication.
