Right man.  Right job.   Congratulations Jim, the forums have needed some clear leadership for the last few months, and I know you'll provide it.

 

As others have said, some Mods are happy to stamp down their authority with little explanation for their actions, but you always take the time to provide your rationale.  That's why we all respect you, because your intent is always transparent.

 

Very happy to know that you're now at the helm of the forum community.  :cool:

Hi Dave,

 

Thanks for your comments too.  I have a lot of volunteers who are moderators who are supporting me and that will always make me look good.  It's not easy to be "police officers" of any forum community but we will work hard at it.  I think my first major mistake since accepting the job was accidentally banning you. 

 

Thanks to Scott and Stormtrooper for your kind comments too.  Stormtrooper.... now that's a name!  I'm really overwhelmed with the kind comments and wishes.  Thanks!

 

Best regards,

[newtie 533]

Excellent pick. Jim has always helped me out.
