Welcome to our New Moderator, Merlin! - sgloer - 11-12-2018
Darrin (aka Merlin) has volunteered to help Shotojuku out with keeping this community a friendly and organized place. Please give him a warm welcome to the moderator ranks!

Great to have you, Merlin!

Welcome to your new role Merlin!

Thanks!
I figure that instead of complaining about all the spammers and scammers we've been getting lately, it was time to step up and help take care of the problem. Plus considering how much I'm on the boards anyway, it seemed like a no-brainer particularly given how the forum was short-handed on the mod front.

How exactly does he profit? Are they paying him some fantastic amount of money to moderate? If so, I'm happy to step up and help as well! If I'd have known that I could become rich being a moderator of a free forum, I'd have done it years ago!!!

The only profit that a moderator can expect is the satisfaction when removing the spammers and scammers from the message board. That and being able to help the community by moving messages around and cleaning up mistaken posts and such when necessary.
