It is my great pleasure to announce that Dan will be helping the rest of the staff at Codex with some moderation tasks. We have just promoted him to Super Moderator. In addition, he will be aiding us in maintaining some projects we are throwing together that should help users find their way around Codex much more smoothly. Dan is more than capable to handle the position. I'm looking forward to seeing some great ideas and work from Dan and I know it is a step forward for Codex!

Congratulations Dan!

[Dan]

Thanks, Hydro.

As some of you may or may not know - I've been working closely with the administration for some time now, both with the future of Codex and the renovation. I have also been closely working to act as a quality assurance tester for applications such as Abrosia.

Thanks for the promotion and I can assure you this is a step forward for Codex and the future of the community preserved here.

Hello Dan, as a concerned member of the community, I hope to see some anti-racist action in your moderation ^__^.

Spoiler

On that topic, and I'm not trying to take from Dan's promotion, but are there any non-white smods [to represent the underrepresented minorities]?

Arman

Yeah because our current staff obviously discriminate against racial minorities here.

[Adam]

Wow you joined in '05 and have <100 posts.

Not insulting you, it's just an observation not usually made. o,o.

Btw, "Sadeghi"? Are you Iranian?

I joined in 05 and up until like a week ago I had 120 some posts...Got anything more to say?

[ArticTheTiger]

enough about expiry dates and post stamps, we're talking dan here! Congrats danman you're awesome.

[Noitidart]

Hahahaha stm you're too funny

[Dan]

Naw, that's not what I'm implying at all. I just think it's rather remarkable that there still exist people on the board who have, on numerous occasions in the last few years, openly called for the death of people based on race and sexual orientation.

This is what I mean, as a concerned member of the community, by bringing up the need for anti-racist action by the moderators.

If any racist and/or derogatory material (whether that be images, text, speech, etc) is posted on the boards, it will be removed as soon as it is seen by a moderator. The easiest way to let a moderator know is by the Report button - use it!

Cheers for all the congratulations guys!

While I, a veteran member, have been willing to put up with it, I doubt new members will find it too welcoming and will not have the patience that I've had with the reactionaries on the board and just leave.

Well it's already against the rules it's just that we haven't really had any moderators since the restructuring and the admins have had more important things to focus on. Now we can just get Dan to deal with all that crap.

For a while I never got on that's all. Like a week or two ago when I remembered Neopets, I remembered Neocodex and started being active again . It's all good, and you're pretty good, I am Iranian, well, half anyway ! Well this topic is for Dan so let's talk about him! He's been popping up everywhere lately so he's doing a good job keeping on top of things.

Did Dan just jump from programmer to smod? Or was he a mod?

Anyways, congrats Dan

Programmers are mods (in the programming section).

You can check the Moderating Team list for all the sections which people have powers in.

[Mr. Hobo]

Well I meant pink-tag global mod

Congrats on the promotion, I hope you can outlive the previous ones.
