I For One Welcome Our New Insect Overlord!

Insect Overlord

:pac:

Well, it had to happen eventually! Some might even say it should have happened well before now Whatever the case may be, it's time for me to step down as mod of C&H. I've had an amazing 16 months moderating the forum. Plenty of highs, very few lows and anything that did challenge me was something to learn from.

I just feel now that the forum needs a new driving force, and someone new at the reins should help keep up the energy C&H needs. I got talking to KnifeWRENCH and Piste about three weeks ago. Between us we came up with a long list of potential candidates, which we eventually cut down to a short-list of three names. In reality, it could have been any one of 15 different posters. However, a choice has FINALLY been made, and the Admins will be pushing the buttons to take away my powers in the next few hours/days. The new moderator should be in place by next Wednesday at the latest, but could have his new powers by tonight if he's lucky.

As such, I'd like to be the first to welcome Ginja Ninja as the new member of the Clearasil & Hormones forum mod-team. Give him a while to get used to his new responsibilities. He's got a great forum here to pick up as his first modship, and two great co-mods to help him out.

Congrats Ginja Ninja!

This does mean...that you're not mod anymore?

It wouldn't be that hard to guess at least 10 of those on the list. All the mods that post regularly then a few regulars (I couldn't have been included because of the amount of infractions, warnings / bans I have had)

Insect Overlord

I'll still be around, posting as often as I can. Also, people can still PM me about stuff whenever they'd like a chat.

It's funny, I was still C&H mod when I started typing the OP, and it had changed by the time I posted it!

Also, unknown, we tried to focus on bringing in new people, so there were no current mods high on our list.

On a serious note; a huge thanks to IO and everyone else,I'll try and not mess this up.You've been a great mod IO and we, quite literally, owe this forum to you.

[P.S: So many new buttons ]

Congrats Ginja, and gg IO for modding up 'til now.

'Gratz on the new job Ginja! Glad to see there's no recession in C&H and we can still afford a new mod! I hope you negotiated a good rate? >.> :P

Also: DAYDAY IO! Please come visit C&H 'cos yano otherwise how are we going to feed the birds? :P

Awwww... I've only been posting here recently but I've always thought Insect was a great mod. Hopefully he'll stick around as a poster.


Who else is curious who was on the list?:o

Aoibheann

IO's been an absolutely amazing mod (seriously, you guys have no idea how much work himself, Piste and KnifeWRENCH do), and it really does take a lot for me to compliment him.. He'll tell you himself, he's ALWAYS wrong in my eyes.

'grats Ginja, he'll be a tough act to follow so best of luck.

Nonsense.
You'll just skip mod and go straight to admin.

Grand bit of moderating there IO. It's too bad Ginja went and abused his powers by changing his avatar.

QueenOfLeon

What a powerful looking new avatar you've got there....:P

Well done Ginja!

Hmphh I didnt think of it like that..
However if I did become admin, it would be forces upon every member that I was a founder and if they refuse to believe it I could ban them

Pffft that'd never work I couldnt just take his name.. Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini all were orginal and when you hear the name everyone knows who your talking about, I need a name with equal greatness of these

Ehh having a beard could get in the way of my stalking, could be too easily identified, ie the 15yr girl with the beard :P
