Hey all,

I really have no idea why the forum continually yet seemingly randomly selects posts made that require moderator approval. There really is no rhyme or reason, as it has selected posts not just by members that have tenure here, but also other moderators. There are some forums where the software is set to require approval for every post, but they are a select few, and not the commonly used forums. JetTroop is the only one that has the hutspa to look into it and fix it, since he is the site administrator. In the mean time, I'm trying to stop by at least once a day, maybe every other day, to go through the posts to approve them. If you make a post and it goes AWOL, give it 24 - 48 hours, as I should be here sometime within that time frame to approve it. Generally if it is a post by a recognized member, I just approve them. If it is not a name I recognize, then I review the post and act accordingly. It does seem somewhat successful, because there has been some spam that was caught that then I can just remove. That said, I have still seen some spam find its way through. All we can do is the best we can.

Did ya, did ya???

Have no clue what I'm talking about? Well...let me tell ya then! Two moderators were recently promoted to "Admin Moderators". Who are those moderators you ask? Why Missy and Sipowicz of course!!

What does that mean? Well...more pay...and we added vision to the already outstanding benefits of free health and dental, etc. No, wait...that's wrong. Ok, only they get their names highlighted in red. Sheesh...

So, what will they be doing? Well as if they aren't doing enough...they will take on additional moderator duties of account maintenance and forum maintenance. If you have a user issue, contact them and they should be able to resolve it.

On a serious note, a big congratulations to Missy & Sipowicz is in order. It's a big step for me to grant admin access (I'm a control freak) but they have more than earned my trust & respect!!
