How many staff members is too many?

[Shole]

If you have like 5 members on your forum, and 4 are staff members, than that's too much. You hire staff when you stop being able to do things yourself.

The size of the company will determine the number of staffs to be employed. The conglomerate requires many employees . The number of staffs also depends on the responsibilities of the company.

How many staff members are too many for a small forum in your opinion? What are the factors that webmasters need to consider? Activity? Forum Statistics? Or,"x" amount of messages or members?

I think that the number of staff members that you have should be relative to how many different activities need to be completed on the website by the moderators and the staff and I think that if you have around 5 it is more than enough.
