Ask The Staff (14th Dec 08 at 5:51am UTC)
I made a topic like this back in March, and it was quite popular; I decided to post it again. In this topic, you can ask the staff [whether it be a specific staff member, or all of the staff in general] any question you would like (provided it stays within the ToS). All I ask is that you try to keep the spam to a minimum (and by minimum I mean none. )

Posted By slip on 14th Dec 08 at 12:47pm graham tell us about how you first fell in love! Oooh, that's an interesting one! We first on a forum we used to both frequent - i joined it out of chance. It was then after we both realised we lived only 20 mins from each other that we got to know each other a bit and decided to meet up. It was then after a lot of dancnig around each other for a few months that we both admitted we liked each other. We've been together for 3 and a half years She's like my carer, only with worse pay

What's the most dragging part of being staff on VFS?

Have any of the staff wanted to shut off their phone due to text messages about server problems while on vacation, in school, etc?

Not really; I try to have an internet connection wherever I go, so I can check in regularly and attend to any issues that may arise.

Posted By ashkir on 15th Dec 08 at 1:03pm Have any of the staff wanted to shut off their phone due to text messages about server problems while on vacation, in school, etc? I'm completly the opposite. The last thing I want is to be without a phone or Internet connection. I know that the essential services on the server are built to autorecover if anything goes wrong with them, and that if that fails Marc and Graham are both capable of getting the server back online in most instances. But I still worry that something will happen whenever I'm not there.

Re: Ask The Staff (16th Dec 08 at 10:35am UTC)
Here's one or two: Before you were made staff, did you have aspirations of becoming a staff member? Did you think "oooh, it would be great to join the staff team" or was it completely out of the blue? More specifically for Ross, but any of you lot can answer it: Is the forum service at the stage you envisaged when the service began? Has it grown to a stage you didn't think possible or is it smaller than you had hoped for?
