I would like to submit an idea I had that we could use on the forums for exstaff members
I thought that with all the retired moderators and other retired staff members in the forums we have a good base of knowledge.
I was thinking that the admins could create a new position called Staff Advisor and give it to all of the retired staff that want it. The role of a Staff Advisor would be to pass on their knowledge that they gained during their time as a Staff member on Teen Forumz. They would have no moderation powers etc but they could just be someone that current/new staff members can go to for tips on their roles.
This would mean that the knowledge isn't lost and the new staff members will not have to learn the hard way.
I agree with everyone else. There's really no reason for staff advisers; if anything they could just be recognized as former staff members with some sort of banner.

Note: - At this period, I only have internet access on my phone, and IM doesn't work on my phone, so when any of you guys send me a message, I can see that I recieved messages on TF IM but I can't read or respond to them.
This is actually a good suggestion. There is merit in the idea of utilizing former staff to help advise and assist the current staff; especially newer ones.
However, personally, I am more prone to go the route of acknowledging our past staff members with some sort of icon/banner rather than go the distance you have suggested. I would also note that previous staff members, if they are still active, are always an excellent source to go to for advice - regardless if they are titled a staff advisor or not.
I like the suggestion, sir. We are working on something along these lines - so I thank you for your suggestion.
