In light of recent private Silkroad developments, there has been quite a large influx of duplicate threads and topics concerning one or two of the same issues. While lolrko and Invincible seemed to be the most active, there were still too many threads, flaming, spamming, and general off-topic comments circulating for 2 moderators to handle effectively. With lolrko stepping down, the situation isn't getting any better. Though there are still two more mods (theoneofgod and Zathor), I haven't seen them as active.
With the current situation, the number of mods needed to control such activities is on the low side and needs to be investigated. As current activity suggests, the number of breakthroughs in private Silkroad developments will only increase, which will continue to bring in more and more members which will also bring more arguments and off-topic comments.
Just though I'd add in that little piece to remind others of what is happening.
