Thread: Significant Additions to our Moderator Team

I am pleased to announce the addition of seven new moderators that have joined the ranks of helping us Moderate this board. They are:

Rev. Lane Keister (greenbaggins)
Rev. Daniel Kok (Poimen)
Dennis McFadden (DMcFadden)
Todd Pedlar (toddpedlar)
Chris Poe (Pilgrim)
Rev. Matthew Winzer (armourbearer)
Ruben Zartman (py3ak)

I'm starting to feel like the heel on this Admin/Mod team. I am indeed privileged to add them to the team that helps set the tone within the threads and keeps this board on the tracks of Confessional Reformed theology. Please welcome them.

Why so many additions? In short, we're growing rapidly. We've recently started getting as many as four new applicants per day. The board's membership has almost doubled in the last year and a half and the number of regular visitors has shot up. By my reckoning, our traffic is now increasing at a rate of 10% per month. We're getting in front of the bow wave with some men whose hearts I am knit to because we share a common Confession in our risen Savior.

Welcome aboard gentlemen and thank you all for helping make this board what it is.

The Magnificent Seven sit high in the saddle, their steely eyes taking in each and every weapon; only seven, but they'll fight like seven hundred.

Great choices Rich!

Welcome, Gentlemen. Honored to have you.

I am delighted we are growing so fast!

There goes the neighborhood!

Congrats and blessings, gentlemen!

Congratulations to all the new moderators.



To the OP: I've noticed the spelling change on the handle "Fidelis" (v. Fideles). Latin gramattical point? Did I miss the relevant thread?

Personally I would never join a church that would have me as a member.

It's the way the Marine Motto is. I recently figured out I had been mis-spelling.

Fine upgrade to an already fine team.

That is a cool avatar! (Back to our program.)

A VERY strong group indeed.

Nobody has taught me more in my three years on the PB than Matthew Winzer and Bruce Buchanan. And since Bruce is already a mod, I am thrilled to see Matthew added.

Dennis and Ruben ooze with practical wisdom.

Daniel and Lane seem to know every in and out of Reformed confessionalism.

Congrats to Chris and Todd as well.

absolute power corrupts...almost all the time.
Big brother is now watching.

Flee!

Daniel Kok: Rich won't save you, Puritanboard! Only my new powers can do that!

Puritanboard: At what cost? You're a good person; don't do this!

Daniel Kok: I won't lose you the way I lost my last board. I am becoming more powerful than any moderator has ever dreamed of, and I'm doing it for you: to protect you.

One of you Vulcan programming-type-persons need to have "The Boys are Back in Town" playing in the background of this thread.

Will the Admins & Mods page be updated so we know this isn't a prank?

Funny you should mention that. When Rich invited me to join the moderators, I initially thought it was an AF joke.

BTW, I'm on the PB and in the middle of a meeting. I am not used to moderator powers yet, and ended up editing your post rather than quoting it. Sorry.

I have noticed a mistake in this picture. Surely Matthew Winzer is the one on the far right wearing the blue shirt (as per his Avatar).

Still getting the hang of it, eh?

Surely you made a mistake with Winzer. Not sure if he's all that confessional.
