Morning folks, I recently decided to step down from the mod role - it's been a fairly quiet spell by all accounts but I've had days where I've been responding to PMs well into the early hours when my battle with the snooze button is only a few hours away. In the last couple of weeks the free time has pretty much disappeared altogether. I misjudged my available time more than the time required and did so from a desire to contribute something back to this wonderful forum. For those who haven't noticed my absence, carry on. Be good, and be nice to Nines - he's a great guy. If you're having a spat, try to sort it out yourself because it does take time to sort out. If you have a complaint then follow the procedures. You're all clever people and decent ones at that so play nicely if possible. Thanks, sorry and see you all soon, Matt
Thanks for your efforts, Matt .................. they were appreciated. Only when someone becomes a 'mod' do you realise how much effort it takes. It can often be a 'no win situation' but it does have it's rewarding points as well. Cheers to you, Aussie
Hi Matt Thanks, you have had such a difficult time over the last few months, a difficulty we could not have imagined...and you and 999s handled it so well. Many thanks and best wishes Beth
Thanks for everything Matt. I enjoyed our time together, albeit far too briefly. It's only once you take on the role that you come to realise what all the Mods before you have had to deal with, and the amount of work you need to put in. Thank you for your kind words and I hope to see you back posting on here again soon. Nines
As an ex-mod myself, I know all about the time pressures of the role behind the scenes, Matt, so you're pushing against an open door as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for all your efforts. I echo that sentiment that members must take responsibility to self-moderate and not let spats and handbags develop into anything more.
No need to apologize mate. Thanks for your efforts during a difficult time for the board and the club in general. All the best, TIMK
Thanks Matt & I know with your issues off the board it must have been a bit of a struggle. Hope it all works out for you mate and as everyone else says, please continue to post. Thanks for all the hard work mate, much appreciated. Hope I didn't give you too much to do ?
