Please welcome Jonathan Chance as our newest moderator.
He will be tending the Great Debates part of the Straight Dope farm for us.
Thank you, Jonathan, for all you’re about to do, and welcome!
My heartfelt condolences, Jonathan Chance. 
Welcome, Johnathan. [del]I knew we’d convert you someday[/del]… er…I mean, you’ll do a fine job, I’m sure. 
One of my favorite persons here, an excellent choice!
To what address should we send the required offering?
There but for the grace of god …
I mean, welcome aboard! Fasten you seat belt, your life is about to change.
Welcome aboard!
C’mon, Great Debates is nothing but lighthearted fun!
Good luck, Jonathan. I have a feeling you’ll need it.
Welcome aboard, Jonathan. Be glad you got that lightweight forum instead of one of the tough ones like Marketplace or the Game Room. Whoo. Those are some tough moderating, I tell you. When you’re doing GD, you’ll have plenty of time to kick back and relax.
Seriously, though, great to have you on board!
There goes the neighborhood.
And his first warning goes to . . .
Jonathan Chance is the worst Mod ever!
In before the rush.
I’ll say, folks, these jackboots are really freaking comfortable.
Who knew?
Wonderful news! I expect some whip cracking.
Please notify me when you take your first action as mod, and I can start the thread complaining about your bias. TIA.
Regards,
Shodan
Dammit, Shodan-if you break this one they’re not gonna get you another one.
But, really, what more is there to making a Mod than duct-taping a target to his or her back?
(ETA: Best of luck to you, Mr. Chance!)
Yeah, what does one do to deserve that?
Uh, ohhhhh…
Too LATE, big boy. Already acted!
