Wolfy 6,917 Posted June 14, 2014 I quit recently too D; Congrats on the positions everyone! You all are super good fits for the role I think, so it should be cake, dun sweat! The entire staff team are super friendly and helpful, so they should be able to get you guys to pro status in like 2 seconds. Also wanted to say thanks to Pelly and Sean for being fellow staff members for all that time. Literally some of my best time online has been with you guys doing this, so it's kinda sad that it's over, but we all have other junks to get to of course haha. You guys will be super missed and everyone appreciated what you guys did here. 17 Nepenthe, Kiah, goku262002 and 14 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Komodin 8,831 Posted June 14, 2014 Well, I can't say that I didn't see this coming! Congrats to all three of you new guys! I just hope that your positions won't diminish your tolerance of my "mehs"! 1 SuperLink reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kiah 25,474 Posted June 14, 2014 Sorry for joining the party so late as I worked a 13-hour day today...Oh well, better late than never! WELCOME to the team Azookara, Ogilvie, and SuperLink! All 3 of you definitely deserve this! And I am certain you will get the hang of things in an instant and you will do just fine as well! *is no longer a "new" mod* UH OH. That's not "UH OH" Tara, that's GREAT! Don't you see?! That means we aren't "the" rookies of the Staff and we don't have to sleep on the floor anymore! This is cause for celebration as we are moving up! No, but seriously gentlemen, CONGRATULATIONS on your promotions and I really look forward to working with you all in the days, weeks, months, and hopefully years ahead. As for Sean, Pelly, and Wolfy, while it is sad and surreal to see you all no longer on the team, it was a pleasure working with you and getting to know you all during my beginning tenure as a mod here. I can't thank you enough for all of your hard work you've done over the years and also for your patience in dealing with me and my million questions that I have asked about modship and other things. You helped me in more ways than you will ever know, and I will always be grateful for that. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors and you will surely be missed by me and many others on the moderator side of things. Thank you all for everything. 11 Brad, azoo, goku262002 and 8 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jetronic 1,385 Posted June 14, 2014 But...what will happen to Pelly's special group now ;c ? I will also miss Wolfy throwing things at people. Anyway, Congrats to the new mods. Now we can finally make this the Ogilvie Stadium.

Chris 3,562 Posted June 14, 2014 Edit : Azookara's title says "Forum" Moderator instead of SSMB Moderator. Intended. No different as we've done for the last two three moderator announcements. 1 azoo reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azoo 13,957 Posted June 14, 2014 Hey guys! I guess I just wanted to post in here since it is weird that I haven't really said anything (public) in response to becoming a mod, lol. But yeah. I'm glad I can be of service when I need be, and I promise I'll try to be the best mod I can be. Filling in the shoes of Sean, Wolfy and Pelly is gonna be some tough work, but I think that all of us working together can do just fine. I suppose I speak on behalf of SuperLink and Ogivle as well, since I'm sure they'll be just as good as I am on the job (if not better, hawhaw). It's so strange being in this position though now.. in a good way, I mean. I've been on here for a long while (since 2005, yeezus, getting to be an old timer like the rest of the veterans and mods), but yeah. I promise I'll do my best for you guys! 14 Wolfy, Nepenthe, SuperLink and 11 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mando-Whirl-Wind 2,222 Posted June 14, 2014 It's kinda weird for me seeing Zooky on staff now, as I knew him, and worked with him for a little bit before I even got really involved here, but I've always seen him as a decent leader, and a level head, so I wish him the best of luck 2 SuperLink and azoo reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanJ86 7,889 Posted June 14, 2014 Eep! I kinda hate this for two reason. 1) I fear change and 2) I can never spell the word that I want to say, correctly. Concrad- no, Congradulations? that's not right...Con- Ah, screw it! Well Done, doods! I would've asked why Wolfy never got announced, but he kinda beat me too it. Hmm, speaking personally for a second, these staff changes don't really affect my project much. I've already drawn a SuperLink toon and Azoo and Ogilvie was already planned anyway. But it does sadden me to see good people having to leave an important position, I guess you have your reasons. It's not like your leaving us forever or anything, is it? Is it?!

Legosi (Tani Coyote) 5,843 Posted June 14, 2014 My verbosity is limited by my iPad, but I just figured I'd say thank you to everyone for their warm welcome. I was quite flattered to be invited to join the staff and I hope I'll be able to execute my duties well so as to ensure our community remains an awesome one. 5 SuperLink, Wil348, Sean and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crash 629 Posted June 15, 2014 Well done you three! Also sad to see the others quit but moderating can't be easy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jolt_TH 379 Posted June 15, 2014 Congrats to you three, no doubt you all deserve the position (Ogilvie dude you have worked SOOO hard with the fandom meetups!) Just go easy on us mere mortals yeah? And I have to say I am really grateful for everything Sean, Pelly and Wolfy have done here, sad to see you guys leaving and everytime I see your names i'll still think of you as mods really sad to see you leaving but I hope you guys had a blast, even when we on the forums were being a bunch of numpties! 1 Legosi (Tani Coyote) reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wil348 1,747 Posted June 15, 2014 Wait, Sean, Pelly, and Wolfy are leaving? For good? As in, quitting the forums? If so, that's really sad news. If not, then it'll be great to still have you here! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goku262002 4,542 Posted June 15, 2014 I already congratulated the new mods via the statuses, so I want to thank Pelly and Sean for being fantastic mods, its hard to believe some of the last of the old guard is retiring and its going be weird seeing them both with red banners (unless Pelly gets her own special retirement group =p). There aren't gonna be many mods like you guys so thanks for staying for soo long and putting up with us (and me). Hell of a run, enjoy your retirement. EDIT: For those wondering, I didn't forget Wolfy I thanked him when he announced his retirement sometime back in the emotions topic(?). 2 Legosi (Tani Coyote) and SuperLink reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strong Bad 277 Posted June 17, 2014 Oh jeez, this means I've met an SSMB moderator in person. Congratulations guys! Every time a new set of mods is announced I always feel bad that I barely know any of them... maybe one of these days I'll be more active And of course as everyone else said, a special thanks to now-retired moderators Wolfy, Sean, and Pelly. You guys did a lovely job keeping the boards clean. I wish you three the best in whatever you plan to do in the future. 1 SuperLink reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mesmerist 45 Posted June 25, 2014 This is pretty big. Thank you to the two leaving for all you've done, and I wholeheartedly congratulate and welcome the three new moderators (though, while all of you are lovely, I have a special place in my heart for Ogilvie. Congrats, dude. ^^) Good luck to all! 1 Legosi (Tani Coyote) reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
