Just to let everyone know, there'll be two new moderators coming on board soon....Souljacker and Anthony Goldstein. I'm sure everyone's noticed how busy this place is getting lately so their help is going to be very much appreciated, particularly with HBP a little over a month away!!

So, we'd appreciate it if everyone here would treat their comments, edits and decisions with the same respect as you would mine, Ash's, Zyra's, taks, or doomed_renascence's...

Huge warm welcome to you guys!! **cheers**

Best of luck to you both!!

Whoo hoo!!

Welcome to the team, you two!! Sooo chuffed to have the both of youse on board, you guys are gonna be brilliant!!

Once again, WELCOME!!

Boo, down with totalitarianism.

Na, only playing. Well done Souljacker and Anthony Goldstein you enjoy advising *cough* bossing *cough* us on the correct ways to proceed through the forums.!

Hehe, welcome you two! Great to have some sanity on the moderating team....finally.




(It was a joke...a joke. I appreciate Ashleigh and Dana and Zyra just as much as anyone else.... )

Thank you very much for the warm welcome!

Congratulations Anthony Goldstein! It's a huge relief to know I'm not the only one starting in the new job!

It’s great to be on board, I only hope I do the site justice!

Thanks again,

Shane

Sanity??!!!!!

Bossing???!!!!

Ooh, right then....another two for my Umbridge list, by the look of it...now what did I do with my quill?



Of course you'll be fine, Shane, mate!! Have nothing but faith in you!!

*Sniff, sniff* Oh, i missed out! i would have applied! *sniff* But anyway, congratulations, Shane and Antony Goldstein!

I saw this thread while I was in the library at school this morning, if you want to know the truth, but I was not sure of what constitutes an adequate response... so I decided to wait until I got home to see what Shane had to say.

As I told Louise yesterday, I've really enjoyed being a member of VTM these past nine months, and I'm greatly honored to finally have the opportunity to give back to the site a bit. And congratulations to you too, Shane! I'm also quite pleased that we can be onto the new job together!

So again, thanks very much for all your support, everyone.

Allie

WOOHOO!! You guys deserve it! Great job around. Have fun being a mod. You're now on the "other side" lol, just kidding.

New mods? Yay! *gives out ice cream for everyone, with Shane's and Allie's with all the yummy works*

Yummy! Ice Cream!!

*Takes a Lemon ice*

*this time, JD was knocked by GH88 to hug the new mods*

be aware of us... hahaha...

anyways, congrats again...

Get out of the way! *JD shoves GH88 out of the way, casts Petrificus Totalus on them, and hugs the new Mods once again*

Oh my... I can't move! I'll just shout..

"Congrulations!"

*JD, I'll have my revenge after this spell is removed... dont' worry, it will take a long time... until VTM finds another mods... *

*Got jealous of everybody hugging the new mods and takes out her wand to send them all flying backwards, then hugs the new mods with no one around to knock her*


PS: *applies for mod post if anytime the mods need a new one*

*Casts Petrificus Totalus on everyone else, pushes the Frozen Hallia out of the way and hugs the new Mods once more*

Congratulations again!


*Puts name down on the Mod Waiting List*

Alright now, guys....come on, that's enough.

Settle down, eh?

And there is no mod waiting list. They are appointed purely by recommendation from other mods, so if you fancy your chances in the future, the best way to go about it is simply to behave yourselves, post sensibly and don't annoy the existing mods.

That *was* a joke, Louise *Offers ice cream to apologise*

Yeah, we were just joking.
*offers some chocolate to aplogise too*

Many a true word spoken in jest though, eh?

Anywho, just clarifying. Let's just wind it down a little now, yeah?

Okay, a bit late, but welcome, Mods! Enjoy your Moderation times.

Yeah, we're just joking. Sorry...

*offers... ummm... HBP book to JD and Dana (Louise is your real name? Can I call you with that? )*

Yeah, it is. You can call me whatever you like, mate...so long as it's PG rated.

I am very pleased to be able to announce that another new moderator has just been appointed to give us a hand in this chaos that is the impending HBP release.....Quality Quidditch Supplies!!

A very warm welcome to the VTM Forums Staff team, QQS!!! *cheers*

So, we'd appreciate it if everyone here would treat his comments, edits and decisions with the same respect as you would any of the present mods'...

BTW, an announcement will be made concerning the prefects by tomorrow hopefully, just for those who haven't seen the 'Adopt a Member' thread...

congratulations to all of the new moderators! and good luck

CONGRATULATIONS, QQS! Welcome to the team! I'm really pleased to be having another mod along, what with all the HBP-related goings-on, and it'll be great to have someone from my own time zone to work with. Again, very much looking forward to working with you and getting to know you better, and I'll talk to you later today I expect!

Thanks, Allie. I'm really excited to be working with such a great moderating team.

Also, I'd like to thank the academy...

Just kidding. But really, thanks for the welcome, it means a lot.

Congratulations!
You defiently deserve it to.
Once again congratulations!

Congratulations, QQS! I didn't even know you had been made a mod !! Well, I'm sure you'll be wonderful at your new position!
The very best of luck,
Aphrodite

Well done QQS!
They picked the right person for the job matey, going by your posts, so best of luck out there in Mod-Land.

Heather

COngratulations, QQS!! The mods have chosen the right person for the job. Hope your mod days here are good and you don't boss us much around

A huge welcome to QQS!. you'll be absolutely brilliant at the job! Also like Allie said the timing couldn't have been more perfect, with the HBP only days away!

I'm really looking forward to working alongside you!

Shane

Way to go QSS...if anyone deserves this is it you for sure!!! you have always had very insiteful things to say on the forum and have given alot to it...Way to go and Good Luck with all the stuff that will be coming up with HBP...

Wow! A new moderator!

Congratulations, QQS! You are a deserving one! Good luck on your job! *a big hug for QQS from VTM members*

Oo, cool. Congradulations on getting to be a mod, QQS! Can't wait to see you in 'mod action', hehe. Anyway, like others have said, you deserve it, and good luck.

Congratulations QQS!
You're a great additon to an already exemplary Mod team!

Congratulations QQS!

Another boss in the VTM team.

Im sure you will enjoy your new job.

I'm not sure when you were appointed QQS but I just wanted to say congratulations and good luck and in advance thanks to you all for moderating the forum over the period of HBP madness lol. I know you will all be run off your feet so thanks for doing it for all us members .

Your all stars in my eyes

Ally x

Wow, awesome for them! I enjoy modding at other forums, i feel so... empowered...

Anyhow, im quite a n00b here, so I really dont know who they are, but hey, congrats

OMG!! QQS! Congrats! *Hugs QQS as they come in the door.* Enjoy your time in modland! You've earned it!

This is kinda late but I figured that since it is QQS i just couldn't help but to stop and say great job!! Yes we joined the same day but looks like you were more active than I was. Everyday Veritaserum gets more and more newbies and we need more Mods to tell them whats up lol. once again congradulations!!

Oh, while I was exploring the whole VTM forums, I noticed that there are another two new mods!

I would like to congratulate razzberry and Aphrodite! You deserve it, guys!!!

**GH88 hugs them and gives them cookies and ice cream!**

Note: I hope I'm right because I saw under their names the word, Moderator and they are now on the moderating team. I'm so sorry if I didn't wait for the other mods to start this.

Again... congrats!

Ooh, Matthew did it and he never told me!! Crafty devil that he is!!!

Yeah, sorry....I was going to announce that we've had to take on two new mods and the best place to recruit from was the prefects...we had to choose very quickly from people we know we could rely on - I'm sure everyone's seen how busy this place is getting!!

So yes, I'm very pleased to announce that Razzberry2 and Aphrodite have been chosen to be our two new mods....

Welcome, guys!!

I'd like to thank both of them for the exceptional help they've been here over the last few days and they really deserve this... So I hope you'll all make them feel very welcome too!! (Thanks gryffin...)

Anywho, that means we'll be needing some new prefects to replace them...we already have some people in mind based on the people who applied before, so hopefully we'll be able to announce those too before too long...

Welcome to the mod team, guys!! I'm sure you'll be great, and I'm really pleased to have you along! As Louise said, you've been doing great work as Prefects, and we really appreciate the help you've given us as we've tried to organize the Post-HBP and Book Seven forums over the past week. Congratulations on a job well done, and you definitely deserve to have full mod powers.

Congrats, Aphrodite and Razz! I can't wait to see you two in 'mod action' as well . Like Allie said, you deserve it. Keep up with the great work you're doing!
