You probably say that to all the boards you moderate. :dubious: Without a ring, it don’t mean a thing.

Seriously (sort of), I think it will be loads of fun and educational, too. Material for your novel. [Conga-rats!](https://static.spiceworks.com/shared/post/0018/0328/Conga%20Rats.jpg)

I was just reading some of your ( **Spice Weasel** ’s posts) and I glanced up and thought, when did \*that \*happen? I’m relieved to discover that it was just today.

There are very few usernames who register with me (as I’m a filthy casual on these boards), and yours is one of the most prominent, and probably the only one for whom I would say that in an unreservedly positive way. It was definitely a good choice for TPTB to add you to the moderator team, and a boon to the board to have you here in that capacity.

If I may be honest, I fear that the converse is likely untrue. But hey, you may well find it worth your while after all. But just as a friendly reminder, for those days when it’s not raining, but pouring, please remember that we here on the board probably deserve to simmer in our own bullshit for a bit while you take a breather.

Anyway, Congrats!

Ah, I’m going to miss the happy, carefree, optimistic **Spice Weasel**.

Months from now, she be chain smoking and drinking cheap bourbon by the fistfuls. 🙂  
Really, I can’t think of a nicer person to be Mod.

Hmm I don’t know if we’ve thought this through.

Some traditions never die. We mere peons hope that she’ll be slugging back that drink from her SDMB mug. Yes??

See, I told you I wouldn’t be the nice one anymore.

We’re all very pleased to have her on board.

Don’t mention the mugs. No one speaks of the mugs.

You lost the bet, huh, **Spice Weasel**?

Honestly, I think this is a very strong, solid choice. I didn’t know that you had such a massive masochistic streak in you, but I look forward to the leather, high heeled jackboots

Most of what he said. I’m honestly surprised at this excellent choice. Good luck!

Darn it, I had collected a complete set of mod warnings and then they release another one.
