The Admin Team are delighted to announce that Easy Money (John) has agreed to become an Admin.
John is a fine contributor to the site and is well known to many of you.
There are of course others who would make superb Admins, and we thank those who expressed an interest in helping us or suggested people you thought would be suitable. The Admin team is of course subject to changes in the same way as any other team, and those concerned can be assured that we will know where to look in the future.
We know we can assure John of you full support in his new role.

I thought you were a good admin, Raff.
Anyway, a wise promotion, John, and remember, "spare the rod; spoil the child."

 Spank softly, but carry a big paddle.
Not that I would ever raze my children that way, and I am not condoning such behavior.

pleased as punch ... another great promotion. Great choice admins.
Knock them dead John.. you'll be a damn good one. Remember though that is inversely proportional to the number of PM's you send me threatening to kick my ass back to the newbie stone-age

Actually what we are planning is to gradually promote everyone to Admin except Micky.
Then we'll get him....

hahhaah.. good thing you admins aren't again on the ball..  
want to really get me.... promote me and then let me have to deal with assholes like myself hahahha 
that's why I'd never take the job.. for all the sh*t I give you... I could never do it. You all have the damn hardest job here. Remember.. I saw what Raff went through.. I know what that job entails.

Never knew how can you be promoted to Admin, I suppose it's listening the whole archives and then you have a 1000 pages quiz about those albums to see if you really listened to them all.

Yes, we'll institute new forum rules like banning the spilling of drinks, and the use of ellipses.

That's good noose -- congratulations, EM!
Though I thought you'd indicated you thought yourself unsuited for the role -- I guess you reconsidered (?)
 Was there any bribery involved, or did Tony threaten you?
 Wait, I bet it was Bob, right? Underneath that mild-mannered exterior, lurks the savage heart of a BEAST!

As you know from your own time on the team, Peter, forum moderator is one of those tasks all of us on the team take on to one extent or another when we don the Golden Mantle.
Here's an informal photo of a moderation meeting back in the days when Raff was on the team:

Can you believe I just discovered this thread and this great comment from Antoine. I'd like to say something profound or meaningful about what a strange and bittersweet coincidence this is to find his qoute after he has moved on to a better place, but I guess I'm not up to it, just a big thanks to everyone, especially Antoine. (Rest in Peace my friend).

I know.. it still really hurts to see his posts going back through old threads.
btw... considering you have to threaten me with expulsion only once since you got promoted... I'd say you are doing one hell of job John
