Great news! We need more manpower to keep the ruffians in check and to avoid at all costs that any not directly technical discussions should inadvertedly become non-silly. _________________ Kassen |

Thanks everybody!
I'm very honoured to have been chosen for this job. I've just about got my head around my new job as a projectionist at Nambucca Cinema. I'm still doing my computer tutorial business on the side, and continue to get jobs fixing musical equipment and instruments. It's taken a while for me to find my feet in the country, as I have lived my whole life in suburban, and inner city Sydney. Life in a quiet beachside resort town like Nambucca can be isolating at times, and my sense of connectedness with a technical community has survived due to my involvement with this forum, and all of the generous, devoted, good humoured beings who I have met here. Thank you for your honesty, wisdom and patience. I will do my best to continue to share this legacy with current and future members.
Even though I don't get as much time for SDIY as I'd like these days, I've almost finished the ASM2 Sorcerer, and will soon be starting the stripboard layout for the DimC chorus. I hope some day soon to actually do some writing, so I can use some of the things I've been tinkering with for the last couple of years. I literally have not produced any music since before we left Sydney, and it does worry me at times. (feel free to give whatever advice you have in this regard)
Felicity, Indigo & Hannah are all very proud of me becoming a moderator / projectionist. They inspire me everyday to become a better person.
Okay, now, how do I wield my moderating powers? Teach me, master Mosc, how to turn spammers into dust! _________________ What makes a space ours, is what we put there, and what we do there. |

Congrats, Uncle K!
I say if you're going to be in the country and isolated, a seaside resort town ain't all bad. Try a landlocked wheat field
Cheers,

I still don't know what I should be doing.
Is there some kind of post I can read which outlines the basics of how to be a moderator? Without some kind of job description, I'm lost. _________________ What makes a space ours, is what we put there, and what we do there. |

Yes, somehow I'm having deja-vu to that recent movie "employee of the month". You now have the key to the secret cashier/editor lounge. |

It´s more like an alternate reality. We call it ed-space.

Congrats, Uncle K. Also, surely the best way to write some decent material is to first write some really bad material, listen to it, then say "Geez, I can do better than that!"
