How about lumping the staff into groups depending on years they were staff (2007~2009) or something?

Why is the retired staff files section locked?
I know several retired staff post updates and new files there from time to time.

Cause there's no such thing as staff anymore, retired or otherwise?

Because now those retired staff post updates have to be in IF and PoF.

Zebo-chan is right. The staff are one of us now. They don't get special privileges.

this has its pros and cons I guess

the original thing about r21freak is that it had that emphasis on certain people's works and maintained the popularity of single releases which we all know is dead as fuc in stepmania these days (if your file isn't in a pack then nobody will ever play it basically).

at the same time, it is pretty elitist and gives off sort of an oligarchic point of view on how staff see "good" simfiles. it's something they keyboard community took years to get over.

This was my understanding of IF since I first started releasing files in 2008. haha

Thus I haven't released anything since August 2010 because I no longer release files individually, and my progress on my (two so far) upcoming packs are really slow... Just as progress on my master's thesis was very slow too (but it's 99.5% complete now)...
