I’m happy to announce the appointment of two new SDMB moderators. Bone will help moderate Great Debates and Elections, while Chronos will help moderate Café Society. IvoryTowerDenizen will shift from Café Society to IMHO. Hal Briston has retired from moderating duties with our thanks. Longtime users will recall that Chronos moderated years ago; we’re astonished that he’s agreed to do so again, but grateful nonetheless. Likewise, we’re pleased to have signed up Bone while he was in an agreeable mood; he’ll realize what’s he’s gotten himself into soon enough.
Please join me in welcoming Bone and Chronos to the staff.
Newbies get to clean the hamster cages, by the way.
Anyway, congrats and welcome!
Give Bone a break on the hamsters. He has to clean up Elections after last night.
Poor, poor rookie.

First – I hope the building doesn’t burn down on my watch.
Second – If it does burn down, I’m going to blame someone else.

Blame Asimovian. It always works for me!

Did they show you the button Marley pressed?
Chronos , welcome back. Looks like it was time again.
Ooh, look at all the shiny new buttons!
Or else Ed has pictures of him with the goat.
j/k. Welcome, Chronos and Bone .

You are not a true mod until you cut out and bite the warm heart of your first troll kill. Spammers don’t count.

Me, too! (Esp since we’ll be modding together now).
All you folks with honest opinions better watch out.
We’ll all mod together when we mod!
We’re officially now in The Bone Zone, aren’t we? Welcome to both!
Ed has pictures of all of us with the goat. What’s the big deal?

I see you are getting the hang of it already.
Marley23 is no longer around to defend himself - he is probably your best choice.
Welcome, congratulations, and may God have mercy on your soul, not necessarily in that order.
Regards,
Excellent, Bone and Chronos–congratulations!

Why, was that a very special goat?
