Outlander, I've said several times now that adding more moderators won't result in admins RPing more. This is because I've seen firsthand that it doesn't work that way, due in part to how the staff operate through a lot of group discussion and collaboration, but also due to the fact that with more heads it can sometimes create inefficiencies and weaker links. Finally, there's always more admin stuff to do - the more active and present the admin presence is, the more work we wind for ourselves. There's never any real relief because there's always something else that needs doing, something else that needs our opinion or attention. The amount of work for admins is relentless and adjusts accordingly to how many of us there are, so it's always the same amount of work and the same rules and restrictions we have imposed upon ourself to prevent accusations of bias, that prevent us from being more active.
A compromised, perfect solution of sunshine and daisies, like I said, simply doesn't exist.
EDIT: I really can't reiterate this point anymore than I already have without going around in circles, so I'm gonna bow out for now.
