Title: Congratulations to the New Moderators


decker_cky - August 15, 2008 12:58 AM (GMT)
Congratulations to Daggoth and Beastlord Karankawa, who have been promoted to moderators. Thank you to all the members who applied to the position, there were some great ideas given, and I really hope that you're interested in working on those projects, moderator or not. I'm going away for 4 days, but next week I'll have a little more to add on the subject, as there still are a few things Arach and I were discussing about the candidates (possibly adding some section moderators to help out).

But once again, congratulations, I'm sure you'll both do the Herdstone proud.

CountArach - August 15, 2008 12:59 AM (GMT)
Congrats you two! I will enjoy working with you.

Especially you Dag, I am on the verge of tears, thinking that you are now a moderator...I can now rest easy knowing my ineptitude will not matter anymore, since you will be here to pick up my considerable slack.

EDIT BY ARACH: Haha Daggoth, welcome to the world of leaving behind no trace of Editing ;)

Daggoth - August 15, 2008 01:06 AM (GMT)
How fitting is it that I just noticed I became a mod, because scrolling down a topic I noticed my mouse going over the "warn" bar on Arash and thought "that wasn't there before..." :lol:

Thanks guys. I know I will do a good job, and it means alot that I got accepted since this forum has been a part of my life for 4 years now.

P.S: Just had to do it...just once :D

Don't make me get Decker to un-mod you... <_<

Seriously though, both of you are really as much a part of the Herdstone as the Herdstone is part of the Internet. The forum wouldn't be the same without either of you.

decker_cky - August 15, 2008 01:18 AM (GMT)
And both of you need some room in your PM boxes so that you can get the password to the mod forum. :P

Grarrzag - August 15, 2008 01:18 AM (GMT)
Congrats guys! Glad the best candidates won!

Alfindeol - August 15, 2008 02:18 AM (GMT)
Congrats fellas!

Couldn't think of a better two for the job.

Oh god, daggoth is a mod NOOOOOOOO THE WORLDS COMING TO AN END, THE 4 CHAOS- KNIGHTS, ARCHEON, ANGELS AND DEVILS AND DOGS...

That's okay... Congo Rats bud.

Beastlord Karankawa - August 15, 2008 04:44 AM (GMT)
Glad to be part of the ship's crew. I'll do my best to keep Dag from going power crazy.

:)

P.S. I cleared out my flooded mail box while looking for the "ban" button.

Thats really touching :)

I'm very happy to be a mod, its kind of sad but it really does mean alot, especially knowing I'm appreciated. :lol:

And don't worry, I won't go mad with power.

Steve TU - August 15, 2008 07:55 AM (GMT)
Congrats to both of you, def the best choices IMHO. Have fun in the new role!

Sherlocko - August 15, 2008 11:35 AM (GMT)
Congrats guys. Hope you make all of us proud when you now serve our australian overlords. :)

I am the last remaining Australian overlord :( Actually... now that I think about it the Americans outnumber everyone else...

Exeter - August 15, 2008 12:56 PM (GMT)
Congrats to you both! Make us proud!

On an unrelated note, there will no longer be any oversight of moderators, and the following things will elicit a ban:

1. Questioning the Mods

2. Talking about something the Mods did without express permission

3. Spelling 'armor' with a 'u'

4. Expressing unpopular opinions

5. Citing a basic understanding of world geography

More to come later.

Edit: this was a joke...

You see, before that post, I was going to congratulate you..... :rolleyes: here comes another power-crazy mod

Daggoth - August 15, 2008 05:52 PM (GMT)
Was just trying to make a joke about bad american stereotypes. :lol:

No such thing. Americans are made out of 101% win.

Ignorant Americans can't even spell armour correctly *shakes head sadly* ;)

generalaree - August 15, 2008 08:50 PM (GMT)
Congratulations you two. May the winds of good fortune blow in your favour.

ps americans undervalue "u"s

Beastlord Karankawa - August 15, 2008 10:39 PM (GMT)
Superfluous "u"'s cost extra time and money. Out the door they go.

You are of course implying there are good American stereotypes.

Lesson number one: It's a good thing to be clear on when you are Der Moderator :ph43r: and when you're not.

Happy Moderator Day, both of you! :)

Minotower - August 16, 2008 09:26 AM (GMT)
Glorious gift from the heavens!!! Angelic voices must have whispered in our leaders' ears, for the wisdom of choosing these new mods is beyond the faculties of mortal minds. We may only pray that Daggoth and BLK will lift their colleagues to the heights that they themselves look down upon us from. A new, golden age is upon us my fellow herdstoners!

REJOICE!!!

Congrats to both of you.

*Edit by Daggoth* I cleaned up a few spelling errors for you.

gjnoronh - August 19, 2008 08:51 PM (GMT)
Daggoth, BK

Congratulations guys I agree you are both part of what makes the Herdstone so special.

stormwolf - August 28, 2008 10:34 AM (GMT)
Congratulations and celebrations!
Good luck to both of you and please try not to screw it up :P

Beastlord Karankawa - August 28, 2008 11:36 AM (GMT)

Thanks stormwolf. I respect you so much, I am not even going to edit out the "try not to screw it up" part

Not that I've done that to every other midly negative post. ;) :)

No, but seriously. We will have to work hard to achieve the same level of mod-ship (is that a word?) as some of our mods of past ages.

CountArach - August 28, 2008 11:38 PM (GMT)
Moderatorship is a word.

TraitorKing - September 1, 2008 05:04 PM (GMT)
Nice one guys.

Now get to work damnit!

Plaguebeast - October 3, 2008 01:16 PM (GMT)
A belated (public) congratulations to you both :). It's great to have you on board, and you've done a superb job during my sabbatical.

Cheers, Plaguebeast
