Announcing a new moderator

Post by orudge »

Due to Raichase not having quite so much time to be able to dedicate to the forums these days, I am pleased to announce that GoneWacko will join the moderator team. Long-time users of the forums will remember that GoneWacko was once a moderator before, so it's good to have him back here. :)

I guess that's partially true, when I first became a mod I did very sneakily suggest myself as a moderator a few times.

But this time around the proposition came as a bit of a surprise :o

That does interest me, how does one do that sneakily enough? :tongue:

But for those of us who are curious, and know that the only way they're going to become a mod is for orudge to have a lobotomy first?

I don't think sock-puppetting would be a good idea for someone who wants to become a moderator. Or maybe I just don't have a proper idea of "sneaky".
To get a good answer, ask a Smart Question. Similarly, if you want a bug fixed, write a Useful Bug Report. No TTDPatch crashlog? Then follow directions.

Becoming a moderator isn't about suggesting it
You behave and contribute good to the community and when the time is right we suggest some names and pick out someone :wink:
Well, back to work, lot's of it in the near future
