Most of the past/current staff are basically just remnants of the "old-world" oligarchy that used to head Toribash. Much like the still-warm remains of Stalin still rules over Russia today, the still-warm remains of hampa rules the board with an iron fist.
We still polish that fist regularly in a secret staff-alumni celebration that involves WD-40 and totally non-homosexual, religious, platonic orgies lasting for days if not weeks.
