Staff Changes

Postby Ashley » Tue Apr 14, 2009 12:16 pm

Hey everyone,

We've had some major staff changes in the last few weeks, as I'm sure you all have discerned. First of all, some of our older or inactive staff members have stepped down. This is not personal, just a matter of site maintenance.

I would like to take a moment to personally thank Eirewolf, Rogie, Gypsy, Lightbringer, Osaka, Straylight and Yumie for all their hard work and dedication over the years. I would like to especially thank Shatterheart for his SEVEN YEARS of staffing service. We really appreciate all you guys have done for us. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that we wouldn't have made it to here without you.

But, we're also adding three new staff members who have distinguished themselves to us. I welcome Cap'n Nick, Goldenspines, and Lady Rushia to the staff. I can't wait to see the new ideas and personalities they will bring to the site, as well as the needed help in the day-to-day maintenance of the forum.

Oh, and also, one of our older mods is coming out of retirement too; everyone please welcome Shooraijin back into service!

So, for everyone's clarification, our staff now includes:
- Me, Ashley, Administrator in Chief
- Mithrandir, Administrator (and master of technology)
- Shooraijin, UC Pseudonym, RadicalDreamer, LinkAntilles, Cap'n Nick, Goldenspines, and Lady Rushia, moderators

CAA continues to grow and change, and so we must grow and change with it. This is the next chapter in the ongoing saga, and I'm pleased to still be writing it even after all this time.




Oh, and also, I'm coming out of ninja mode.

We are greatly thankful for your selfless service too this site. You have cleared up a ton of mess and even stopped us a couple of time when our heads got a little hot. I do hope we see you guys every now and then though.

Also, I'd like to say that the newer staff includes some of the smartest individuals I know as well as people who's judgement I would trust. I wish you good luck and hope we do not become too much of a hassle.

All the best wishes for the future of CAA and a cheer for the work that has been done.

Congratulations to the new staff and thank you everyone for all of your hard work and service! Everything you do is greatly appreciated!

For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18
