Blue's idea I feel is actually a really good start in terms of creating a solution.

Another idea I would like to propose is a sort of probation system. It would work as the following:

If a member of administration notices a mod is inactive, or if a user appeals to an upper, and the upper agrees, the mod can be put in a sort of "probation" mode. This can also just be a static thing if a mod is in an inactive state for X weeks.

In the state of "probation" a moderator's activity would be under watch. In this state the one in probation is required to be more active. The state of probation can be stopped either again after a static amount of X weeks, or until the uppers are satisfied with the new activity.

Should the one in probation not comply, we would move on to the next step. A thread would be created discusing the potential demotion of that staff member. Afterwards, a vote would be taken in the support/neutral/against format, with a verdict eventually being reached about whether or not to demote the staff member.

Please leave your input on both my, and Blue's idea and discuss whether or not we can actually implement these into our way of doing things
