With membership numbers having now increased to more than 1050 recently, the Admins have been considering the direction of the forum, so that we have the staff in place who can look after it not only today, but also into the future.
MODERATORS
In the past few months Dstock7080 has joined the Admins and two Moderators have left the forum for different personal reasons. Therefore the Admins have invited other members to step up and become Mods. We are pleased to announce that Antharro, Londonstuff, Metman and Rincew1nd have all accepted the offer.
MEMBERSHIP MODERATOR
Many members will also recall that SE13 had been a Moderator. He stepped down for personal reasons last year. We are pleased that SE13 is now able to return to a specialist role of Membership Moderator and also Moderator for the Chat area of the forum.
HEAD MODERATOR
As the number of Moderation staff has now increased to 13, the Admins thought that with so many Mods, not to mention an unlucky number for any superstitious members, that we should ask one to perform the role of Head Moderator. This role has been offered to MRFS42, who has kindly accepted the invitation.
ADMINISTRATOR CHANGES
Due to external commitments upon their time, Colin and tubeprune have decided to take a step back from acting as day-to-day Admins. They will remain part of the forum staff team, becoming... Consultants. That means that the admin team, as of 19/08/13 is ChrisW, Dstock7080, Phil and Seaeagle.
CONSULTANTS
The Founder status has been renamed to Consultant. This role allows former Admins to have a say regarding the direction of the forum, although they may not log in every day. It also allows hugely trusted and valued members to step across into this role... prjb and reganorak being the two who have been invited and who have agreed to take on this challenge.
FORUM FOUNDER
The late District Dave (David Maloney) was the forum’s founder... and also will be remembered as so. This new forum status is there to reminding us all of the inspiration he has given to so many.
The Administrators believe that these changes will allow the forum to grow into the future, with a firm foundation of trusted and level headed staff. We hope that forum members will welcome these developments.
