I feel this thread deserves a better response than my personal reaction, which I posted above.
From the community point of view, we couldn't get a better staff member than TeeJay. He is always fair, helpful and never ever flames. He also have the knowledge both of the diffrent communities within the server, the rules and the players. Besides this he is pretty good at Minecraft, and got answers to most issues when it comes to the game itself.
I am often online during those times when staff is not (GMT/UCT ~9.00-15.00) during which times TeeJay normally are available. Having staff available at all hours is important if we want new players to join and stay. Newcomers don't tend to stay for five hours just to see if they could get the proper help, they move on to another server.
Plus it would make the experience for us old players outside of North America much better. I have often missed staff for quite some time, which gets frustrating.
If TeeJay would become staff, he would be way better at it than any of those that are staff at the moment. I ensure you that. I would like to say like Darz did:

But I am not sure I am good enough to say that...
