Alright, I was going to let it be and not say anything, but I really just had to. Sorry in advance for pressing the button to send.

It kind of bothers me that we're just okay with Gleek saying she needs more time and is on hiatus. Don't get me wrong, I love Gleek, but she manages a lot of major actors and singers and bands, and she produces a large portion of our shows. She's been more-or-less inactive since mid-January (and still rather spotty before that), this is just the first time she's gone long enough that the wiki has actually automatically declared her inactive.

I get that she has computer issues, and her real life is tough to balance, and obviously it makes sense that she can't come to Wiki Channel very often. But that's why we have the inactivity rules. For when people's lives get too hard to deal with and they can't handle Wiki Channel any more, because it's not a priority over their actual life (and it shouldn't be - this is a wiki for fun). We're giving her special treatment and ignoring the fact that it hinders production on the wiki (Lisha Jane is basically the face of Wiki Channel, but she hasn't done anything since, well, mid-January or before. Kitty Couture and James in Hollywood are the original shows, but they haven't aired episodes in forever.) because she's a founding admin and we all care about her.

I get that it's a hard thing to do, and it's not my decision to make so if our local active admins disagree that's cool, we'll wait for her to come back and I won't mention it again (probably). But I really think that for the sake of the wiki we need to consider her inactive.

I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, it's not my intention. Like I said, I love Gleek and I hate to be the one to say this, because she really is an important part of the wiki and I feel bad to basically be pushing to kick her out. But as the original post said, if/when she comes back and wants her stuff back there's a good chance the people who took over would be willing. I just feel like we need to do something.
