Democratic Underground has New Moderators!

[Skinner]

As usual, we had a good response to our call for moderators, and it was extremely difficult to narrow the field down. We had to turn down a number of very qualified people. We hope that everyone who applied to serve as a moderator this turn will consider applying again next term.

A moderator switch is always a little chaotic, so I want to apologize in advance for any problems that may arise over the next few days. Thank you for your understanding.

Please take a moment to say hello to our new moderators, and to express your gratitude to our retiring moderators.

HERE ARE YOUR MODERATORS FOR THIS TERM:

10. This Saddens Me (Somewhat)...

I'll certainly miss wakemeupwhenitsover's classic "Locking" comments. Countless Duzy's...


Oh well, given the state of the boards here lately, the new Mods certainly must have a sense of humor to even have volunteered in the first place.


Good Luck!
