It's my pleasure to announce Jackie as an administrator of AWADtalk. As a
member of this board, with her gentle approach she has helped to make this a
more friendly and pleasant place to hang around. In her new role she'll make
sure it continues to be an open community where everyone feels welcome to
contribute, communicate, and learn, without disrupting others.

Feel free to contact her if you have any concerns. Of course, I'll still be
available but you might get faster results with her.

Congratulations, Jackie!

Well, this Southern lady is shocked, that's for sure. [gasp e] Thank you, Anu, for the tremendous trust you have placed in me [oof, tugging against her chains e].
Essentially, I don't plan on doing much of anything. This is Anu's board. I have no right to impose my standards on anyone. Anything I do will be done with as careful a consideration as I am able to give, to the good of the board as a whole.

Dear Jackie: I doubt very much than any of us will regret your exercise of whatever power you now have, so long as it means you can delete potentially inflammatory posts. The board has been saddenly slow the past couple days. I hope that now it will pick up again.

The coolest part is that you get your name in red!

At least Anu chose the mostest - wonderfulest - bestest etc...

Well, anyone else would have probably raised more than a few eyebrows. I think that Jackie is probably the best person to administrate the Board, because she knows everyone and knows what the Board stands for.

Gooooo, Jackie!

Jackie's name in red?...my, my, my.

Congrats, my dear! What a delightful development! Kudos to you and Anu!...he knew there was no one better to convey their sense of love and joy for this place he created.

Now...about that new opening for the Gutter Police position...



Your Happy Epeolatrist!

Congratulations, Jackie!

Remember, Your Redness, I have always been your keen admirer and chief defender of all the things that you hold dear. The wisdom of Anu is also in my tent. You are thoughtful, caring, balanced in thought, considerate, and I've noticed that you are always willing to help those in need and I have a couple of real spicy posts I'm trying to slip by the Gutter Police and so...well, you know, drop me a PM when you get the chance.

-Milum.

PS: What kind of a-case-of-beer do you drink? Just wondering.

Congratulations Jackie on your new promotion. It's a shame you didn't get more warning - we could have had a really good party before you had to come over all sensible. Now who do we appeal to when we find you in the gutter?

Congrats, Jackie, a well-deserved promotion. Thank you Anu for giving this position to such a worthy person.

Now you just need to replace that Carpal Tunnel with Gutter Police and it'll be official.

Hi Jackie,
How are you holding up amidst these kudos and congratulations?
It is a wise choice from a wise man!

Essentially, I don't plan on doing much of anything. This is Anu's board. I have no right to impose my standards on anyone. Anything I do will be done with as careful a consideration as I am able to give, to the good of the board as a whole.
I like that very much!

Of course, it's all a plot to prove you're better red than us, isn't it?

Late, as ever, I hasten to add my $.02 :

Hurrah, Jackie! I'm not getting here much these days, but I'm glad I checked just now, to get this wonderful news.

It does seem you should get to replace your Carpal Tunnel with some other title, in honor of your exalted status.

Felicidades,

Chris

Yes Hyla and Satin, I like that - the "Administratrix".

It sounds like
And don't you forget it!

Some things are sad, and then some things are sad but necessary -and true.

I wish we had Jackie the Administrator back in power. We still have a lot of members
who flame thoughtlessly far too often. We really need someone who can point out
the error of their ways. And if they persist in error, ban them and make it stick.
