We have decided to add some new blood to the moderating team in Racing Comments and would like to introduce artista, Disgrace and Fontainebleau who have all kindly agreed to give up some of their spare time to help us out and make Racing Comments the best place on the Internet to come and discuss current motorsport issues.

 

All of us are volunteers and we have tens of thousands of messages posted every race weekend so even with three new moderators we cannot possibly see more than a small fraction of them. We do still need you to report messages and say why they break the rules so that one of us can do something about it and help the new guys to target their valuable time well.

 

Please join us in welcoming artista, Disgrace and Fontainebleau to the team.

I was careful to suggest welcoming rather than congratulating.  Hopefully they won't notice.

These mods certainly know controversial posts. Hope this means quick decisions and threads free from non-racing related
arguing.

If you report it, someone will always look, just not necessarily immediately.

I'm beginning to feel like a big blue hairy monster. Hmm, cookies...

 

Thanks for the good wishes (I will just imagine they are good wishes) and, above all... thanks for the cookies.

I was just about to post that it is not official until we see their names listed at the bottom of the page.  So I guess we can run riot for just a little bit longer.

Indeed. Congratulations to all three of you. Also, I'd like to extend an apology to Fontainebleau, as I feel like you're someone on here that I've probably pi#%ed off a few times, lol. Hopefully I'm thinking of someone else. :p

Atlas is a very well-moderated forum.

 

You three have got some big Mod Boots to fill.

 

I'll try to make sure you never have to kick me with them.

 

Good luck!
