We are delighted to announce that John, Figgis, has been promoted from moderator to an administrator of The Hub :Party:

This means all three of us are now exactly the same in terms of our roles, and visually. This is how it should always have been really as that’s how we work anyway. John is a really important part of this team and so we wanted you all to think of him as an equal and felt the colour/ rank thing was getting in the way.

So will you notice any difference? No. It just means John can now see a few more buttons, look at more info and authorise new members. He’ll soon get bored of the novelty :lol:

On a personal note I want to say Bruce and I really value John’s contribution to this forum and we love him being part of this team. One thing the three of us have never, ever done here is have a cross word or argument or anything but a lovely calm and relaxed time managing this place. John is an absolute pleasure to work with and someone we both trust implicitly (despite his questionable penchant for violence towards his staff ;) )

So congratulations John and thank the lord you gave us a good excuse to ditch the orange colour on our names :D :Luv Ya:

Well done, John.
Did notice the change in colour to your name yesterday.
Have had so many laugh out loud moments from your writing.
Congratulations on your promotion to opening batsman.
Cheers, :thumbsup:

Thing is, while there may be extra buttons to push I'll adopt the philosophy which has served me well so far: don't push any buttons until you know what they do and even then avoid pushing them by burying your bonce in the sand until such time as someone else comes along to do it :thumbsup:

Any road up, as Cath said on another thread, you lot need barely any "moderating" anyway, so the buttons will likely remain unpushed for the foreseeable.

Well done Figgis, many congratulations.
Did you by any chance partake of a swift gin or three to celebrate?

Well done, wise decision, though I’d kinda thought he was already there. Nice to have it confirmed.
Well done John. Now your the Magnificent 3. :thumbsup:

A swift gin? Sorry, I don't understand the concept. Several, certainly :thumbsup: ;)
