Hey, I wanted to do that 😱

Congrats to all the new mods - looks like Hellhammer upgraded his avatar along with the promotion...looks like a much larger axe 🙂

 

[840quadra]

Congratulations to you all! And, of course, to those who were anointed previously.

Thanks jsw . Really miss seeing you around 😱 . One of the best role-models for a MacRumors moderator could ever have!

We get bigger avatars (100x100 vs 75x75) and my old 'tar at that resolution didn't look that good. I wanted to keep the same theme though because people often recognize my posts because of my 'tar. Nermal already named the axe as BanAxe™ 😛

Yes mein nincompoop. 😛

...I was typing from my phone, hence why my usual good grammar was amiss.

Congrats to the n00b-mods! 😛

That's MR. N00b-mods to you 😀

 

[balamw]

That's MR. N00b-mods to you 😀

Actually some of us should be referred to as Dr. Noob-mod if we are flinging titles around.

I think the proper term is Dr. Mr. n00b-mod 😛

Normally when a new batch* of Mods is announced there are a few names I'm unfamiliar with, but on this occasion all the new recruits are names I know. They all look to be a solid choices, and I hope everything goes well with their new duties. Good luck, chaps.

* Does anyone know the correct collective noun? A 'ban' of Mods? 😉

I vote for "a ban of". 😛

Yes it is helpful when mods are picked that people actually have heard of.

Not if he gets to you first. Keep your back to the wall at all times, those Finns swing a mean axe. 😉

Congrats to the new mods! Maybe it's my imagination, but it already seems like spam posts that I report are getting deleted faster than they where a little while ago, I'm assuming it's because of more mods to deal with them. So keep up the good work.

 

[maflynn]

That's because HH is a machine. I go to take care of them and he's already done it.

Yeah, they're like that when they're new. 😀

 

[firestarter]

Good luck nOOb-mods, and congratulations! 😀

Good to see that we finally have a mod who comes from the Home of Metal.

 

[S.B.G]

Congratulations all. I know y'all do a fine job.

Black Sabbath and the many metal bands they inspired have concentrated lyrically "on dark and depressing subject matter to an extent hitherto unprecedented in any form of pop music..."

Living in the West Midlands inspires you to write those sort of lyrics. 😀

 

[Dont Hurt Me]

Thanks for the welcomes 🙂

For some reason I figured you living in Detroit Michigan or something, congrats.🙂
