Title: Welcome to our new moderator
Post by: Caretaker on 04.04. 2013 00:19
As LJ needed some time off (but will still be around), Muskrat has taken on moderator tasks. With his friendly and helpful behavior, technical knowledge and interest for the forum I am sure all members will welcome the move (and do the best to not make his task difficult ! *smile* )

Thanks.

Bill,

You're THIS close to being reported to the Moderator.

Richard L.

P.S. I can delete it all later, after the humor becomes just stupid.

Good on yer Musky. 

We don't need to be kept in line.  Just treat us gently and we'll behave ourselves....honest!!  Not like our noisy, dirty single cylinder cousins.

Hey...what's red and throbs between the legs??   No...the answer is a 1955 B33.

Now this is the only time that I will lower the tone of this mighty fine forum and I'll stand to be reprimanded.

Enjoy your new position.

Beezageezauk.

^^ lol

Remember the mod task are not mainly to 'supervise' members or helping to ensure a friendly and helpful tone etc, many practical and important maintenance tasks are done\can be done by the mod, to keep the forum looking good and working well, be easy to navigate, accept new members, having the information sorted in the correct boards, helping new members with posting etc. And the moderator also has access to the 'deeper' settings and configs in the forum program, important in case the admin is absent for a while. It's a very welcome and valuable complement to my work here.

Thanks for the welcome fellas. A big learning curve for me so will take my time learning the ropes.
Only if I see something that doesn't sit right will I intervene.
Just remember I'm Ausie, thick skin and strange humor.
Cheers.

Hi Richard - photo didn't come through here until today but guessed the meaning.
not sure if I've found a bug in the forum or my PC but couldn't get unread replies yesterday for a while, allright now though, also had screen going black when touching the mouse, altered a power setting ("don't"  let mouse wake computer) and so far so good,

Hey Manosound,

OK OK Muskie, your first serious task, ban me for life.

I just want to give my congratulations to Musky in becoming the forums new moderator, I think it is a wise choice. It'll be an easy job but is important in keeping backups of the forums data base while Admin experiments and improves. I really can't see how the forum can be any much better! Good Luck Musk  *smiley4*

Oops. Photo was an edit. Sorry if it had anyone bringing out the computer pipe wrench. Now, Gav's hysterical comment must be immediately struck because it is clearly too close to the truth and risks offending North Korean members. *smile*

LJ,
I have to agree with your comments on the forum and our new moderator.
If he can stay out of jail he should do well.
To a large degree, the pleasant ambience of this forum is a compliment to the steading influence you have added over the years.
Hope all is well with you and yours and look forward to reading more of your posts.

PS: Brace yourselves youse pommy B*#s for a flogging in the ashes!!

cheers
