Moderator announcement

dvorak — Tue, 14 Apr 2015 13:25:45 GMT

Jim has decided to take a break from moderating for the foreseeable future.
We would like to thank Jim for all his help and efforts and look forward to welcoming back in the future.

... on a serious note, you'll be greatly missed around here, Jim. I trust you're not exiting completely?

Thank you for all your efforts to moderate these forums. It's not been an easy task at the best of times!

Thanks for your input. It can't be an easy task so which you've been doing for some time.
Hope you're not leaving completely and will still pop by.
Less stress now, and try not to use the 'Report to Moderator' button too often

Thanks Jim you've played the game with a good steady batting performance for a long time and maintained a lot of stability in this sometimes noisy environment.
Perhaps without the fetters of being a moderator we may see a different Jim?

You'll be missed Jim!
Enjoy the break!

Sad news, but I hope you enjoy the well-earned break Jim.
You've certainly proved yourself through some trying situations over the years, and I'm sure I speak for all the Plusnetters that frequent these parts in saying a big thank you for everything you've contributed.

You say 'OldJim', I say 'Good ol' Jim', well 'everything in moderation' as they say (including moderation apparently), Jim has contributed considerably to what I have always considered a fine example of how a furum should be run, fair enforcement of the rules without appearing too heavy handed but not afraid to challenge others (including PN) when necessary.

The other mods are alright too I suppose [/coat]

Take it easy Jim,

Sad day, you will be missed - you have been a steady hand and have taken more than a few knocks. I do hope that those issues have not contributed to your decision to hand in your electronic red pen? Hopefully you will remain around and join the "bright sparks" group... or do you now get the "Legend" badge!
Enjoy retirement and keep in touch.

All the best!
Now you'll have more time to explore and about in greater depth.
