ATS Admin/Staff Appreciation Thread

I didn't think this thread would take off that fast I have spent the last hour or so trying to convince everyone in a certain popular thread right now that they were being bamboozled.

But on Topic...TYVM for the responses to the thread. Maybe...we can meet and then exceed the post count on the Issues thread.

Man, I cannot even say how much I love the staff, and Admin, especially the mods, I have stayed on this board longer then any other just due to the fact of a caring staff..

I love this board..

sometimes after a long hard day, I love coming here and just being. Talking big talk about Alien theory's debating over politics or just freshing up on the news..

Thank you, and I appreciate being here.. Hopefully that does not put an X on my back..

Well as the resident ATS Brown Noser, I guess I have to reply eh?

I do appreciate the staff and have made a lot of friends in that department.

Keep up the good work folks!

~Keeper

In an effort to meet and then surpass the ATS Issues thread I have started a Thank You list in regards to the upcoming ATS 2010 release based on the preview. So be prepared, upon release, I perceive that this thread will be inundated with a great deal of Thank Yous, even if I am the only one that does so.

As Dekes alluded to ... were it not for You, the Members, we wouldn't be here right now.

Thank YOU!! ... one and ALL!!!

Not a day goes by where I don't learn Something from those who Make this place so Special ... You. the Members.

Thank YOU! ... One and ALL!!

I mean that, Sincerely.

We, as staff, are but merely those tasked with trying to herd You cats.


It's You folks who "keep it real" and endear Others to the same ... all the while.



Just sayin'....

Ohhh my favourite mod at the moment has to be Memoryshock! ever since he showed his amazing talent to look mind blowing dressed as a pony! the dreams have been fabulous!


Just jesting with you Mem!


Seriously though, I have no particular mod to thank, so I would just like to say thank you to all of you! you all do a great job, so keep it up!

Uh huh.
Hmm. Do I need to warn you, off topic you or maybe post ban you now?
HMPF!!!

I think DrumsRfun, purposefully excluded you from their favorite Moderators list, because you are his favorite Moderator and wanted to prompt your entry and interaction.

This is known as Moderator baiting!

The truth is, it’s very hard not to have admiration for all the Moderators here on ATS, because they contribute in so many outstanding ways. They don’t just keep the threads on topic and on track; they are often some of the most insightful posters themselves. They don’t just critique and criticize and warn, but offer great advice on how to make a thread inviting and productive and applaud too. They do an outstanding job of inspecting what ATS expects, and set a lofty example of just what that is, in their own threads and posts.

ATS would be just another site on the Internet, instead of the best site on the Internet if it weren’t for the Moderators who might not all be Super Moderators as displayed on their avatars, but are all super in ever regard.

I am going to buy a round of drinks for the entire staff now, which since time and logistics prevents the staff from geographically participating; I shall not drink for the entire staff too!

Because I am just that kind of generous and appreciative person, keep up the great work Moderators, the ATS Staff rocks!

Cheers!

You may be the resident brown noser,me,I
try bribing the staff.I always hope that they
are too busy to notice my off topic posts.

Nice idea for a thread and I really do appreciate all of the staff and their efforts in bringing ATS to us in such a great way and also I have to say a special thanks to Masqua in particular since he's been a huge help for me in my time here and I'd still feel like such a N00b if he didn't help me out from time to time.

Can we be sure that the moderators are still sane? After reading some of the stuff posted on ATS, I would most likely suffer permanent brain damage for having to read every single post....

You guys are doing good though.
