[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Welcome Kuiper To The Staff!

Posted: 6/7/2001 4:50:08 PM EDT

Wanted to make a quick announcement that Kuiper has been added as a staff member of AR15.Com and will now be wielding supreme power. Well, maybe not supreme, but lets just say he went from a shooting blanks to carrying live ammo!

He's done a tremendous job as a moderator and has been a part of things for many years now. We look forward to the added help in regulating accounts and keeping trouble makers off the forums.

I'm sure everyone who has been here can recognize his hard work, patience, and open mindedness. So from all of us, congrats and welcome aboard!

Congratulations Kuiper. Well deserved.
GoatBoy can I have Kuipers old office? It's much closer to the window overlooking the beach. [:D]

You gave a foreigner the keys to AR15.com!!! Better watch out, I bet he's in cahoots with the UN...

Congrats Kuiper, you deserve it!

Besides, who else is gonna be there to lock threads when all us N. Americans are asleep?!

Congrats Kuiper!

Thanks all, basicly not much is gonna change for me. I'd still be moderating on the same level as I did up till now. With the added possibility to terminate accounts, something I dont take lightly. Even if this is the internet, there's some real life people behind the consoles.

I hope to keep this site the best firearms site online.

Right, that was the nice part.

Striker, no way I am giving up my office. That is unless a deal can be made where I'd be moving my office up the beach so you can see me having all the fun while you are working inside [:D)

Thanks all

Kuiper

I'm glad he helped recently in pulling the plug on the toads doing their self promo here.

He saw they were violating the forums conduct code as well. Unfortunately another Mod took the heat for it.

That was not the case and I actually feel as I have been the one having to hand down most of the punishments myself. Seeing as there were only 3 people with the rights to ban these guys, I felt a need to upgrade the power base with a proven moderator.

I'm gonna "untack" this and let it stand for itself. Again, I'm very happy to have you on the team and I have no doubt that you will continue the great work that EdSr and DonR have been doing.

Hey GB.. What ever happened to DonR. Is he ok? (haven't seen him here in ages)

Congrats [beer][<]:)]

I hear a good moderator is paid in excess of $250/hr, not bad [:D]
