New Moderators

[Chris 3,562]

I'd like to welcome two new moderators to the team this morning: Akito and Sonikku_Kiah. I hope the transition won't be too hard on you two and we're here to help.

[Yoko/葉子 1,974]

Congratulations to both of you! *hug*

Congratulations to you both. You deserve it.

[goku262002 4,542]

So 2 to replace 1 huh?

Congrats to both of you, have fun keeping us in check.

[Milo 14,880]

Congratulations to the new moderators, although I find them to be rather unexpected, as I wasn't expecting any replacements.

 

Then again, Akito's much-polished thread may had been a subtle red flag...

[Solkia 11,088]

Everyone should be a mod so we can have slayer mode.

[Blue Wisp 4,841]

OKAY UH

 

THIS CAUGHT ME OFF-HAND

 

but a big hug to both moderators and congratulations for the PRRRROMOTION, you deserved it.

2 for 2, actually. The number of staff members didn't actually go up, we just shuffled some around.

[Victoes 181]

Congrats to the new mod, I sure you to will be great mods.

Congratulations to both of you-- this promotion is really well-deserved in my opinion, with Akito's "good topic"... topic and Kiah's skill in providing kind words and advice to others.

Yeah I remember Carbo got digivolved into an admin but is there someone I'm forgetting?

[Solkia 11,088]

Flyboy I think

[Brad 2,553]

Congratulations guys! You'll make fine mods. Good luck.

[TheOcelot 11,112]

Congrats Akito and Sonikku_Kiah!

 

Which means Nepenthe and Tornado aren't the newbie mods anymore.

Thanks, guys!  I hope I'll continue to have fun and be helpful to everyone.

 

At the risk of sounding pretentious though, I want to take a moment and give everyone their first order as mod:  Remember that I am still a member first.  If you agree with something I say or do, great.  If you don't, call me out on my bullshit. (Within reasonable bounds, of course)  Please don't take my fancy, orange ribbon as an excuse to treat me any different than you would normally.  I've had that happen before in both positive and negative ways, and believe me, even the positive ways aren't exactly pleasant.  So yes, please treat me as though I wasn't a mod.  Unless I tell you otherwise, but you know what I mean.

I knew something fishy was going on

Congratulations to you both. You deserve it.

Funny thing is that on both times I've been appointed to a moderator position on a website, it's been preceded by a sinking feeling that I did something horribly wrong.  I, too, noticed the numerous staff visiting my profile and was a little apprehensive. XP

 

Congratulations to the new moderators, although I find them to be rather unexpected, as I wasn't expecting any replacements.

Just going to say that while I appreciate that you enjoyed that topic, I made that as a member who wanted to see more people fitting into the community, and for all intents and purposes, it shall stay just that.

[Ducktor Naldush Repulsa 1,271]

Have fun with your new cosmic powers! I'm sure you'll make some bona fide mods yourself!

But by following this order, I'm acknowledging your new standing as a mod and hence treating you differently, even if it doesn't feel like it. So in order for me to NOT treat you like a mod, I have to disobey this order and treat you much much much more terribly then I was before. I'm sorry man, but this is how it has to be.

 

In all seriousness though, congratulations to you and Sonikku. You both deserve it!

Which means all of the pranks on the freshman don't fall on me anymore! 8P
