Staffing Update

#1  Postby LIFE » Apr 29, 2010 1:13 pm

Following consultation with the staff, I've created a position called "Senior Moderator" to act as a second-in-command. The Senior Moderator's responsibilities will be to co-ordinate the moderation team and to become a point of appeal for moderation issues. If members have issues with moderation that they cannot resolve with the individual moderator concerned, they should contact the Senior Moderator as the next step in the appeal process.

This has been recently been discussed with the staff, and after taking their opinions into account,
I have decided to appoint starr to the position :thumbup:

Thanks,
Bernhard

Congratulations starr!

When you have trolls roaming the forum, and a Leprechaun infestation you definitely need to call in a dragon-riding fairy :nod:.

I'm sure you'll continue to do a great job :cheers:.

A splendid choice. I don't care what the others say, I think starr is OK! :thumbup:

@LIFE: I hope you have bumped here up the pension ladder too, she'll need compensating for all the flak she's going to take! :D

Although we're all supporting Starr in this new post, some of us think she'd look better in pink than orange. ;)

I'm just teasing of course - have whatever colour you like (as long as it's pink or violet or lavender instead of nasty orange)

Oh, sure it would. I hope that wouldn't mean I'd have to stop wearing underwear, though! :lol:

But, orange is my favorite color.
