Subject: Easy Money steps down from the admin team
Date Posted: December 28 2010 at 13:44
Last week, John decided to step down from the Admin team - the combined workload of being an admin and an active member of the Jazz Rock/Fusion team became too big.
John did a great job as an admin and moderator over the past two years, and will continue to do so in the JR/F team. As such, he will keep his status of Special Collaborator.
The admin team would like to thank John for the work he did as part of our team.

I noticed he's a SC now a few days before. Thanks for everything you did as an Admin, John! Who should I write now for ProgReviewer promotions?

Oh no! There goes my spam-eradicating partner.
As they both said, thanks for all your help as an Admin.

Thanks John for your hard work and dedication, especially on the spam and bogus reviews fronts.

That's correct. He removed his admin stripes himself after he resigned, but forgot to write a thank you note - which I corrected just now.

Hey, as long as he sticks around. Sometimes you are up to being active
and sometimes you just have to step back. The money isn't really easy
around here. Last time I checked there isn't any. Most of us
participate for the fun of the music.

can't say Jody's decision was a surprise, and to be entirely truthful, I'm not really surprised John stepped down, despite his excellent work... I always thought that being a team specialist member and admin was a bit too heavy (unless you really have the hours to spare for both)
... anyway, thanks to both of them for the hard work
but you raise an important point, I think it's important to have an admin in each of the three major time frame (Europe, America and Far East) to ensure some 'round the clock presence on the site... This is why I had pressed for Trotsky to become Admin a few years back, unfortunately no-one stepped up from the far est time frame to replace him once he resigned.
------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword

Thanks a lot for the kind comments everyone. If I never got to ban you, or even threaten to ban you, don't feel slighted, I really wanted to ban every one of you, there just wasn't enough time.
I'll still be around fielding your crazy suggestions for JR and enjoying the sense of humor of this place, ...as well as watching for vast ratings manipulation conspiracies that will finally explain the crop circles, the Bermuda Triangle and the Loch Ness monster, ...ssshhhh someone is watching, ...trust no one

I noticed this a few days ago and was scratching my head - I was thinking to myself, "Wait, wasn't he an admin? I was sure both Easy Money and Easy Living were admins, maybe just Easy Living was and I got confused?". Good to know that wasn't a sign of insanity. Thanks for all the hard work John.

Nah I was just making that part up. There's only 3 Milton Babbitt fans in the world, so we have to stick together.

Thanks, EM, for all the work you did for PA!
It's always better to simplify your life, as the psychologists say. But then again, JR / fusion is not at all about simplicity . But to choose for one task and do it well is better than to spread yourself out to much and do everything half or get a burn-out. Oh well, enough unasked advices Thanks for all you did for PA thus far, as an admin and as an expert.
