Please join me in welcoming to the staff our new local moderators (in no particular order): Dangerous_Dave, Desert Dog, IceMetalPunk, Tepi, TheSnidr, True Valhalla, Yal, and YellowAfterlife! (OK, it was alphabetical order)

I think most of you will recognize these long-time members who were kind enough to go beyond their normal helpfulness and take it to the next level by dispensing brutal justice upon their former peers.

Also, give a big thanks to our current moderators who have recently been promoted to Global status. They've been such a tremendous asset to the community and now their eyes are everywhere. EVERYWHERE.

Cheers!

Congratulations

[Nocturne]

Yay! Nice to see some new faces, and I hope that everybody gives them a hard time warm welcome to the GMC!

[creativebunch]

Congrats to them! I look forward to the brutality.

[Swifty]

Great work guys, congratulations! Good to know I recognize all those mentioned.

Dangerous_Dave, Desert Dog, IceMetalPunk, Tepi, TheSnidr, True Valhalla, Yal, and YellowAfterlife!

All good choices... except for one. You all know who I'm talking about. Yeah, that's the one. The worst choice possible for the GMC.

But all the rest are excellent.

Great to see some well-deserving members being recognised, even though I disagree with one, but we won't get into that, it's not my decision!

Congratulations to all!

Welcome guys.

As we speak, the new members of the team are being chained to their computers and are watching a video titled "trolling for moderators".

Wow, that's a crapload of moderator power! Spam will have no opportunity to persist anymore Good job GMC!


Edit: so that's why the blue color in the left bar looked unfamiliar to me. I thought it was just me.

Careful, chance... You know that now THAT ONE can ban you.

Really? Do moderators have ban hammers? I thought only administrators could do that.

True. But first, we have to go through the usual "new moderator muscle flexing" period. You know... where each one has to close a topic for no particular reason.

But once we're past that phase, it'll be great.

Why is Dangerous Dave a moderator... I mean the guy's a self-acclaimed dangerous person.

Congratulations to these people. I have a question. To be a moderator you have to live in UK and near to other moderators or you can be from any country?

That's why. Keep your head down...

Physical location has nothing to do with it. We have people now from Easter Europe, Northern Europe, Australia, America etc etc etc...

There's mods from all over the world.

I live in the UK, but I was made a mod in Canada. There's an amazing amount of North American mods, True Valhalla is from Australia, Yellow Afterlife lives in Ukraine, etc.

Ok thanks Nocturne and ugriffin.

Woot TheSnidr has become a local mod! He always willing to help with 3D and is so damn helpful.

[TheSnidr]

Power... So much power!
Congrats to the other new moderators, and to the newly promoted global moderators!

Finally a promotion - it only took 7 years :D
Thanks, King Tetiro!

Sweet, you can no longer see when I edit my posts

Gmods and Admins have ban hammers. Mods have infinite mod preview, which amounts to the same, really.
