Message 1542258 - Posted: 15 Jul 2014, 22:37:54 UTC

It is that bittersweet time again where I must make the very difficult decision on who to cut and who to add to a great team (names in a hat help to relieve me of having to make that decision!). This means we lose a little bit of experience, but gain fresh faces and new views.

So with that, I want to thank Rob Smith, another longtime Mod with lots of experience, and Lynn, a relative newcomer to the team, both of whom spent many, many hours of their personal time to help manage the flow of our forums. I would like to offer a very personal thank you to each of them for their time and dedication, and I hope that the both of you might be available again in the future for volunteering again, if you're not frightened away from the experience. :-D

Coming onboard is two former Mods: Julie and Es99! After much bribery (and cake!), I have tricked, erm, I mean they have graciously accepted to help manage the forums from our little madhouse. I hope that everyone gives them a very warm, hearty, SETIzen welcome! (Put away the Nerf bats!)

I know this is going to be a great team!

Time for relaxing massages, spa treatments and being waited on hand and foot!! :) Thankyou Rob and Lynn! In the short time I've been a setizen, I've needed many a rescue from my own gaffes and you've both been great and very patient with what must have seemed like a very s-l-o-w learner on your hands! :)

Welcome aboard Julie and Es99. :-)

oh sh*t..I got new buttons.

I really hope Rob and Lynn are on standby here to come back when it all goes horribly wrong.

Some one promised me cake and all of a sudden this.

It reminds me of the time the maths department took me out for a drink and I woke up the next day with a hangover and the job of "Cross Curricular Science and Maths Co-Ordinator". There was no extra pay for that one either.

Congrats to Julie and ES99 for getting mod hats back. Julie I liked working with you when I was a mod.
To Rob and Lynn, Many thanks for what you had to endure. Even some from me:)

Damn, since my return to the project in 2007, I've seen mods come & go but those two have set some high standards of moderation so sorry to see them go.

Let's hope their replacements achieve the same standards.
