Lord knows we need more defenders of the forum against the Kitchen Peddling menace. I was actually going to suggest we get another moderator (Linders, funnily enough was my first choice, Mr. Glow and Gorvar coming in tying seconds) a few days ago, but never got around. Looks like it's a pretty happenin' thing now! Do us proud, good Mountie.

Congrats, Linders. Here's a batch of cupcakes to take with, while going on a killing spree on those kitchen spammers.

Damn and i thouhgt my story would;ve won m the seat, darn! Anywho you go on being Protector of the Realm Linders, for the night is dark and full of kitchen spammers! I love it! Nice reference there, Gorvar! ;D I had a good giggle over that - but funnily enough, Linders has not seen Game of Thrones Season 2, and has not read from the second book onwards - so I had to explain the reference to him, about the Night being Dark and Full of Terrors / Kitchen Spammers... Though that was an awesome reference, Sir! Well played! ;D Also... Tillian - those cupcakes look delicious, and I think I want one... ;D

Those cupcakes will be excellent rations for the battles ahead. In any event thanks for the support guys.

EXCITING NEWS FROM THE OFFICES OF MASS EFFECT FANFICTION TOWERS
We've now asked Linders to step up from his lowly Ambassadorial status to full-on Council Member, and I'm glad to say he accepted.
This essentially means he will be the same rank as I was for the last two years or so - top man and respected King amongst you when the admin isn't around.
---
And also I have 'retired' from the staff and am now just a regular member again. This is for a lot of reasons, but basically it boils down to me not enjoying it as much as I used to. BioWare, Mass Effect, my writing interests and the topics discussed on this site have all changed a great deal in the last couple of years, and I don't feel like moderating this place is really 'for me' anymore. Plus - Linders is better at the technical stuff, I wanted time away for my own hobbies, and it was either this or sacrifice Gorvar and Lily to the machines.
By the way I'm not fully leaving the site or anything - just not being 'staff' anymore. Linders and I have swapped positions, is what I'm saying. Though I may be here less often.
Thanks to everybody for putting up with my largely-inept governing of the site for all this time! It was a pleasure. I look forward to not deleting spam very much indeed.

Buch and I have been talking on and off about this for quite a while now. There is nothing abrupt or traumatic about it at least from our end. Anyone has any suggestions for the news fader I will pop that in, at least once I find the buttons to edit it.
As before, any problems, concerns or conflict, give me a PM. I'm always online at least twice a day.
