The active staff as it stands today is made up of VidTens443, infinitysnapz, AngryLuigi23, and system28. On the Youchew archive, RabbitSnore remains displayed as a staff member in order to recognize the staff's roots of creation and his contributions to the tennis section overall during his active period on the forum.

It is also regarded that Youchew moderator/administrator Emperor Ing was always considered by the original staff as an "unofficial fuck", while never actually being on the staff itself due to him already being instated with moderator and later administrator powers, but having very in-depth involvement with the staff's activities in the early years to the point where he was considered just as essential. It is because of this that he is recognized as having served the staff in the past by retaining the official service medal and also has a round made in a special multi-way match reserved exclusively for staff members only.


The Poop Tennis Cafe as it stands today now exists on YTPMania, and, while still retaining some activity, reaches no where close to where the Tennis Cafes of old used to reach. The Cafe thread had 4 original iterations on the Youchew Forums: the first opening on January 28, 2008 and being locked on March 31, 2008 after 104 pages, the second opening on April 2, 2008 and closing on January 8, 2010 after 883 pages, the third opening on January 8, 2010 and closing on October 11, 2012 after 842 pages(with about 4 months of posts in early 2011 lost as a result of Youchew's infamous "Oz incident"), and the fourth and final iteration opening on October 13, 2012 and lasting until the closure of the Youchew Forums on September 29, 2018 after 488 pages. RabbitSnore upon briefly returning to the Youchew forums in January 2013 expressed his complete disbelief that the then current version of the thread continued to persist. The Cafe Thread that currently exists on YTPMania was first opened on August 21, 2018, and has currently seen 1977 posts (there are no pages in this version due to the unusual inferface of the YTPMania forums). Skype and Discord versions of the Cafe have existed, which has at times seemed to subtract from the discussion of the original threads, but the Cafe thread proper remains with a reputation of being more relaxed, controlled, and easy to follow conversation-wise nature, being considered much more refreshing and comfortable. In the present day, much of the tennis community activity is now had over on the discord The Tennis Isles, which has in some cases kind of become a forum for tennis in its own right.
