Default Moderator standing down

After seven years of diligent service as our 'night watchman' Dragrad is standing down as a club moderator.

Many of you will know his work ethic and attention to detail is enormous and I certainly owe him a huge debt of gratitude for all that he has done over the years to keep the club tidy and on track, but differing styles and approaches of moderation have resulted in his decision to step down at this time.

Andrew enjoy your new found freedom from the boards, you are a tough act to follow sir.

Sad news indeed Andrew will be sorely missed "upstairs" His moderating will be missed as he spoke as he felt Hope he sticks around, after all, he hasn't passed away Know the feeling after moderating

Moderation is a thankless task.

Efficiency looks like over zealousness, inefficiency looks like friendship.

Dragrad has been entirely consistent and professional - for that he deserves huge plaudits.

It's very difficult to be both consistent and adaptive/progressive, harder than most could imagine - worth thinking about.

I hope the nightwatchman will be sticking around in a contributory role

Although not having met 'Dragrad', I have corresponded many times with you on a number of times with regards to furthering the club items. I sincerely hope you are not going into complete retirement. Hope you are going to stay around the club still. And best wishes for your more relaxed future.
