Well, it's long over due but it is here at last.
I have the distinct pleasure of announcing 5 new appointments on the team, bringing new blood and new eyes to all parts of the forum.
First off, let me start with
Optimus Prime who joined us a couple of weeks ago as a new Tournament Director. He's already been shaking things up and along with SteelHorse will do some great things with tournaments.
On the note of
SteelHorse, he has agreed to step up to take on the reigns of being a full ModSquad member with all the powers, privs and problems that come with it. He will still be focusing on the tournaments section, but expect his quiet and reserved mod style to show up on a few of the boards around if he's needed.
Another addition to the ModSquad is the little known but already popular
jennifermarie. We noticed her in the mentoring thread and immediately knew we had found a good match. Level headed, kind and always out there offering a hand she's already proving to be a great addition to the team. Jennifer will be giving us a more dedicated set of eyes in the suggestions forum, which is definitely much needed.
SteelHorse and jennifermarie have all the powers of the ModSquad throughout the site.
We also have a couple of new, board specific Officers:
The old horse of the site
Wacicha has come on to help out in the General Discussions forum and all its sub-boards. Many people know Wacicha as someone who has offered them a helping hand or advice at one point or another. He's been around forever and helps new recruits almost as much as the dice hurt them.
On the international front, I am
very pleased to welcome our first international moderator,
MarVal who will be attempting to speak a million different languages and fielding questions and abuse reports on the international boards. He is the first member of "The UN" which will grow as our international communities do.
These guys will show up in green on the forum list, but Officers are specialized in their respective forums and have powers only there - any site specific questions should still be sent to the ModSquad or through the help ticket system.
I'm pretty sure that is everyone...for now.
I'm really excited to finally have some new people on board. Thank you to everyone who made suggestions for potential mods, I had a great time hearing about what people like about each other.
Say hi to our new staff members, go easy on them while they get their feet wet and remember that they are, as with all staff at CC, members first, players second, staff a distant third. They are here to have fun just like you, and they are human, just like you. If they make mistakes, go easy on them
Have a good one folks
