    Moderator Team Changes!

    Hi, all!

    We're very happy to announce several additions to GateWorld Forum's team of Happy, Cheery Moderators (TM). In addition, we have a promotion and a departing mod to announce.

    TameFarrar, Major Tyler, and kiwigater have been asked to join the moderator team, and have unwisely agreed! Their individual and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. These three have been active, supportive members of the forum for many moons now -- longer than me, I think.

    Meanwhile, we are bidding farewell to our beloved Major Clanger, who sails into the West. After many years of modding, she has opted for the retirement plan. MC was one of GateWorld's founding members (and frequent holder of the GateWorld Top Poster award back at Delphi Forums), and one of the very first mods brought on board when I decided I couldn't handle this crazy business all by myself. Her contributions to making this forum what it is today cannot be overestimated. She'll still be around the forum as a playmate, but will have to sheath her mighty spoon (at least whenever I'm looking).

    Promotion! Skydiver has kindly agreed to step into GateGipsy's shoes as our Forum Manager, which is something akin to "Senior Mod and Idea Person." In addition to having the final say when I am not around (and I'll be less and less, with a baby coming this Monday!), she's been tasked with brainstorming some cool new things for us to do with the forum.

    Thanks once again to our moderators for the often thankless job of keeping this place in tip-top shape. And thanks to all of you for making the forum great, and for giving us rule-enforcers your grace and benefit of the doubt!

    What he said. (Who is he, anyway??)

    MC and Gips, though your positions have changed don't you dare decide to leave us without the blessings of your company. I have learned so much from both of you. This place would be too different without you.

    Sky, I am very proud of you. As Gipsy, you'll do us proud.

    Tame and Kiwi. I genuinely love these gals. They are going to do an awesome job. Matt Tyler is the most cool and level-headed guy (besides myself, of course) that I've met on this forum. This is going to be a great batch of people to work with.

      What they said. It's been a great experience working with MC, working under Gipsy, and I've learned masses from you. And Darren, this Monday? Crikey, I'd got the idea it was Friday. Wow!

              Oh, and MC... now that you're not a mod anymore, do you think you'll have some time to join us in the Shep Thunk thread ? (we won't miss your spoon though ! )

                    Congratulations to all!

                    *thinks what to bribe the new mods with*

                    Thanks Major Clanger; it has been fun.

                      Don't you know by now that chocolates and shoes are very powerful bargaining tools on this forum, Kliggins...

                      Does this mean we're safe from THE SPOON... *quietly rejoices*

                      Best wishes to the new mods... We'll try not to make life too difficult for you people...

                          Something tells me we're never safe from THE SPOON.

                          I'm very sorry to see MC stepping down (she's so much fun!), but congrats to Tame, Tyler, and Kiwi! Although, really, I feel like I should be offering my condolences. You guys are gonna be in for a rough ride, methinks. At least you're all up to the task.

                          Good luck with the promotion, Skydiver and Gips... you're still a mod, right? Just not so high up the totem pole anymore? I hope the compromise works, 'cause I'd hate to lose two of our best mods in one go. Not that there are any BAD mods, of course. Although I'm not sure about Tame, she's a troublemaker...

                            You mean *gasp* one of the new mods can be bribed with chocolate or shoes?

                            I will miss the threat of the spoon.
