Welcome New Admins!


#1

On my “To Do” list for ages but finally done :blush:

Welcome to a fresh batch of admins who will be familiar to all of you as they have been community moderators for a long time.

@PaulL
@Ruina
@Digital_Dave
@dlc96_darren
@OldDoug
@PetaMarie
@Gaff
@Screenack
@marklifestyle

Thank you so much for stepping up :raised_hands::muscle::pray:

Us oldies are still around too:

@matt
@devhammer
@WrenchWench
@erdoke
@Ernest
@LouiseReynolds
@brenda
@Daisy

If you need help with something do tag us. This community was always intended as a place that ran itself with community moderators being those who spend the most time here. I understand that most of us are used to an admin presence that can mean different things depending on the group you are in but it was never the intention to have that here. I think maybe this is the cause of recent confusion. There are over 300 such mods so they are all around you - maybe you are one already? The call for moderators who are here all the time is mute because they already exist - over 300 of them!

If you feel you need that extra admin oomph, we are all here to help - just tag or message us.

I haven’t included the bosses in the admin list because they are the bosses :smiley: They are obviously here too though.

What about @PaulL? I don’t see him listed, but just noticed his shiny new admin title (at least it jumped out to me as new) yesterday! Lol


#3

Oh balls. I copied a list I made to add to a chat channel in Slack and he was already there. Thank you for the heads up, I will edit it now. I haven’t had coffee yet!!!


(Daisy) #4

And welcome to all of the rest of you! I hadn’t noticed any of your new titles yet (though I thought @Screenack and @Brenda already were haha) but you couldn’t have picked a better group!

it looks like I have some friends in the government.


#6

They all volunteered themselves so kudos to them :blush:


(Scott) #7

Maybe we should have an initiation for the new ones and flag every post for a day :joy:


#8

Go for it!!!

They gave the keys to the asylum to the inmates.

Thanks all for stepping up to help.


(Robert C) #12

Thank you all for keeping this place so great!


#13

You want to make us jaded that quick?

:wink:


(Jane) #14

Yay! Great choices - thanks!!!

I’m just in it for the large salary and the company car. #OHWAIT


(John) #16

And what a lazy bunch this new crew is turning out to be. I see threads all over the place that need moving into their proper categories. Get cracking, you lot. Or are you planning on just lording your new badges over everyone and expecting the Regulars to do your work for you??

:grinning:

tests the ability of new admins to ban


(squirrel-kissing paper tamer) #17

Don’t push it, John!


(You've tried everything else; why not try bacon?) #18

Crikey, he’s deciphered our secret plan! :grin:


(John) #19

Sorry, been spending too much time in Juice’s threads recently. Admin sass must be rubbing off on me.
