I would like to thank Laurie for volunteering to help out on the site.
She assures me that she will plan her trips around the Forum carefully. Will occasionally be respectful and most of all will cook breakfast for the team....
On a serious note please thank her. Staff keep this place safe for you and it is hard work at times.

Ladies! Ladies! Can I wake up first?
I just got out of bed and haven't even drank my first cup of coffee. What a surprise to find on my computer this morning. Can't a girl have time to wake up and get dressed?
Thank you folks. I'm hoping I can do a good job for everyone here.
Hugs,
Laurie

Yay! The "Greeter" title is now official. Moderating and greeting are so important. I have quit clubs after the first visit because the established members ignored newcomers. Not here, thanks to Laurie and others who welcomed me in so warmly (and who appropriately groaned at my puns).
Thank you, Laurie.

Has been how it goes as long as I have been on the forum too Stephanie. Part of the reason I started greeting and helping people when I did was because of that fact. New members need us just as much as ones who have been here years who are still having issues too. Hugs

Thank you Stephanie, Saying hi to the new comer is pretty important. I like to personalize it a little as I think it helps. What fun is it to join a site if you are not sincerely welcomed into it?

Laurie I always thought your job was to scare people away. Will you be like the traveling moderator, with your command center in your truck, zapping the rouge members with your laser beam of instant makeover?

Oh I hear you Megan. That is pretty much my feeling once I saw my appointment this morning. Yes, though I asked for the job it is not w/o a little trepidation that I wonder if I can measure up to the expectations of the job. All I can say is that I'll try. I have a lot to learn.
Thanks Megan,

Laurie, I am glad to see you misspelling other people's names beside mine. Megan, how did you get on her misspell list? You musta been a bad, bad girl. You should be safe unless you are around her and hear a dog bark. Just sayin!
Anyway Laurel, did they at least give you some training wheels? I wish you luck. You are gonna need it. I will make sure of that.
Yours truly,

OMG I did get it wrong didn't I?
Sorry Megan (aka MeganJames2) I truly did not realize I had made the mistake. I thought I had double checked it before. Since what's her name so tactfully pointed out my mistake I see that I am mistaken about that too and I have been spelling it incorrectly several times elsewhere. Leave it to her to catch me in error , ugh. I had been thinking there was an H in there somewhere.
Miss Minny Whowho - You best behave. I have your address and other personal information about you. I don't need the "powers of mod" to get to you, young lady.

Alas Jess though I have been designated a moderator I lack the skills and more imortantly the experience to do the job at the moment. Cindy or Susan or who ever does such things needs a moderator badge with training wheels for the likes of me. It's going to be a challenge.

Laurie, I'm so pleased with this news. You have been/continue to be a great resource of support. Just the sort of mod we need.
Say goodbye to unoffical greeter. I think I speak for everybody when I say you are now THE official greeter. Now let's get out their and welcome some newbies!

Thank you Jane,
Alas I agree I can no longer use my stock greeting. I'll just have to find another. I'll think of something.
As for being "The official greeter" oh no, hunh ugh. Greeting is still a function of my new job but we have two Official designated greeters. Those are Kendra and Kathy Lauren and they are doing a fine job of it too.
Heck, I still need training on how to post the standard new user links and information.
Hugs,
Laurie

Since you're now on the inside maybe you could lobby the higher ups to create an "official greeter" classification. Or even an official "unofficial greeter" designation since the position is currently vacant. As you know I do my fair share of greeting too. We're counting on you girl!

There is a greeter title though a badge hasn't been made for it yet. If somebody wants, they could use the custom title field to set a greeter title.

If anyone would like to be an official greeter just PM me and we can have a talk about it. Of course unofficial greeters are always needed and being a good member sort of suggests that we all try and say hello to new people who are often nervous and feeling a bit lost.
I still remember my first greeting and it made me feel safe and welcome when I was a very lonely and confused person.

Thanks Denni, (we should talk more)
Clyde has a place of honor on my desk in his pretty new jar. I offered to return him to his rightful owner, but That Woman wants no part of what is left of this upstanding symbol. She's content to have used the parts of him she wanted and to toss the rest casually aside. At least I've preserved what's left and given him a proper place of honor.
That Woman Miny or Moanycah can be so insensitive when she's playing with her new toys.

Congrats Sister!!!
I just noticed your new title!!!! I hope you have already received your de-coder ring, wall certificate and business cards as well as the riot baton, stun gun and tear gas grenades that will help you quell the fiascos that erupt now and again over important thread issues like: Why does my pet hamster keep mis-gendering me when I am obviously wearing a woman's watch and semi androgynous clothing???
I will try to behave in a civilized manner if I know you are watching because I don't want to be at the business end of a stun gun!!!! ZAP!!!! :)!!!! If you aren't around though, I will be up to my usual shenanigans!!!
Hugs!!!

Lol Ashley.
No they haven't issued me any of that good stuff yet but the did give me a few more buttons, a list of questionable posts to look at, and the taught me the secret hand shake. Then they pointed me at a forum, kicked me out the door and said go forth and learn, grasshopper. Dang if I didn't get lost. This place has no maps or gps and most of the roads are two muddy tracks. I get stuck a lot. *SIGH*

I would like to thank Laurie for volunteering to help out on the site.
She assures me that she will plan her trips around the Forum carefully. Will occasionally be respectful and most of all will cook breakfast for the team....
On a serious note please thank her. Staff keep this place safe for you and it is hard work at times.
