Please welcome the two newest members of the dgrin moderator team:

Steve Cavigliano (Sporting goods) and ian408 (Accessories). Please make their lives as miserable as you've made the rest of ours. :evil


Seriously, if you have any questions about those forums, please don't hesitate to send a PM to the moderators and I'm sure they'll be more than glad to reply with a solid :dunno


:rolleyes


Welcome to the team, guys! :clap

    Baldy told me not to tell but it's been grating on me for some time now.
    My options are on a sligthly accelerated vesting schedule but they are paid
    out in 'dinner'. What's that? He said something about :eat but I didn't catch
    that.

    Please welcome our newest moderator - Humungus.

    We decided we needed someone in a different time zone to help out while the rest of us were sleeping.

    Humungus will co-mod the Wide Angle forum with me, and will likely take on additional challenges as time goes on.

    Welcome gus! clap.gif

    Can't believe I missed the announcements.

    Congrats to everyone, too many to list here but you know who you are.

    This board has been up and running for about two weeks since the original announcement, so we know the first picked were a good call.

    Then we move on to Gus....It's only been a few days, and the boards haven't blown up yet. My guess is he is still in training & they haven't given him access to the LAZER yet. I'll say a small prayer for everyone. May god have mercy on us.

    You guys picked some winners!

    Congrats again clap.gifclap.gifclap.gif

    actually, we pick the people who offer the biggest bribes. shhhh....don't tell anyone. We want them to think it's based on talent and expertise. :uhoh

    Hey, no fair picking on us AARP members :lol

    Yeah, the reflexes have slowed a bit and the senses are dulled, but all you have to do is take a ride with me and you'll see that I still have that killer instinct and am a true road warrior lol3.gif

    Thanks, and I see this morning that I have become your first mate over at the flea market. Hey, do we get a cut of all the sales over there? I think it's time we started some sort of perks policy... that and we need some big neon lights and a loud announcer, something like crazy Eddy... lol3.gif

    Thanks Ian. You are under some misinformation. The quest quarters are for Nikon shooters. I do have room for Canonites in my garage though. :D
