Welcome to our new moderator
« 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.

Yep. Highly deserved and appropriate. I'll do my best to behave.

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.
