I'm not sure what your last line is referring too. Of course GMs moderate the forums. But FMs can't moderate gameside. So an examination of forumside activity provides a more accurate picture of overall FM activity, than overall GM activity (which could only increase!). That doesn't serve to rebuke my claim of inactivity posted earlier.
There's more accurate methods of measuring activity that you folks don't have access to. I'm sure that if there is a problem, it will be addressed. There hasn't been, to my knowledge. Nor are there any set requirements as to how many hours/day or week that we need to log to be 'effective'. We all do what we can, where we can, and those efforts are appreciated - at least by the rest of us moderators. There's also things that can be accomplished without the telling 'postcount' forum-side, so ... yeah. If they weren't considered worthy of elevation and more tools to better assist in taking care of the site overall, they wouldn't have been. Me? I have no problem with it. They've both been good folks, with good critiques and input. I'm sure they're going to do just fine.
To Mal & Mouse - best of luck, and congrats! I'm already seeing you all over the place sorting things out.
Thanks to the awesome Nerv for showing me how to flex those particular powers! xD
