Possible takeovers aside; Welcome to the Team, Recherche! Much kudos to you for volunteering your time. I have every faith that you'll do the community proud.

[Longhaul 6,986]

Congratulations to @The Recherche, an honor well deserved.

[Tacodidra 61,389]

Congratulations! You deserve it!

[Leere 8,291]

Congratulations @The Recherche!

[Guest]

Hey @The Recherche, we only became friends recently but I have to say you've been a truly good person in this community. You've been one of the few who restored even a fraction of my interest in this place. You've always been engaging, outgoing and friendly. You deserve this more than you realize. Your small contributions all add up, and I want you to know that you've been good to me and many others.

I'm proud of you for what you've accomplished and I know you'll use your position to further aid the community. The appointment of someone like you brings me confidence that the staff are trying to pick the best people for the job.

Here's to you, and may your future be bright.

[MangoFoalix 25,038]

Congratulations @The Recherche

[Guest]

It's been great to watch you grow, Rech! It is an absolute treat to have you onboard, and I am very much looking forward to keeping things in order with you.

Dark Horse is not exaggerating a single word in regards to your effect on the community here. I have not seen such an engaged and beloved friend that has taken the core values of this forum to heart more than you since I have been here and that's certainly saying something. Here's to your coming success!

And happy birthday!

[Rikifive 24,230]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHH-h---- *cough* *cough* *intense coughing* *ahem*..

Sorry about that 

Oh I just wanted to say how awesome these news are-- not awesome actually, but FABULOUS!!  

Glad to see you in the staff @The Recherche!  It's always great to see you around and think about it - now you'll be able to officially yell at me in a FASHIONABLE way!  I hope you'll stay there for a long time - don't make me sad please! 

[DJ Wolfe 5,349]

Congratulations! @The Recherche   

 

[Libra 11,691]

Good job @The Recherche! the folks at MLPF certainly picked a great member to be on their sectional staff, i wish them the best of luck with this responsibility, and i have faith theyll do mlpf proud.

[The Recherche 29,969]

Let me tell you something Dark Pone... this introduction is absolutely glorious~! It definitely exceeded my expectations!

With that aside, thank you all so much for your support so far! I won't lie to you; the prospect of becoming a moderator can be kinda intimidating... but I must say that it has been going very well so far! This Forum has been an absolute pleasure to frequent in these brief 3 months, and it will be my utmost pleasure to serve you all in these coming months! With that said, there will be quite a bit of work for me to do in the coming days and weeks. Wish me luck, guys and gals~!

I must say, though; none of this would be possible if it weren't for @Sunset Rose. Back when she was just getting settled in on her role, I had just congratulated her on this achievement.  Not very long afterword and with a bit of conversing, she had told me that there was a mild staff shortage... needless to say, this piqued my interest. Since I'll be graduating High School relatively soon, so I was interested in what it meant to be a Moderator. To cut a long story short, I applied for  the position, went through some interviews, eventually gained the position... and everything that has happened afterward is history!

With that said, thank you so much, Rosie~! I couldn't be in the position I am without you!

[Jeric 46,864]

Best announcement ever. Just saying. 

So here's the deal, I recall seeing that @The Recherche applied and I looked at his app. I actually was reading it and thinking back to the many posts of his I stumbled on since he joined and thought, "Slam friggen dunk guys! This one is for real." I don't just look for intelligence, level-headed qualities, and poise, I also look for decent empathy driven people. The application certainly showcased all of these attributes. When I got to the age part I was impressed at his maturity even further. At his age, I don't believe I was nearly as focused and mature as he is. Having a few casual conversations, I can say that his community presence and his application are completely genuine. The kid is the real deal and it pleases me to no end that he is joining this team. 

It will also be nice to have another Rarity fan to troll Sunset Rose, but that is just a bonus. This is a phenomenal hire, and perhaps the best glowing praise is what @Key Sharkz said above. He'll be the first to tell you that he is one of the most vocal community members and has has always fought and advocated for the community along with holding the staff to a high standard of conduct. If you get his acknowledgement, you know you are doing something right. Beyond Equestria is one of the most challenging areas to moderate, because you need to try and keep it civil, while also allowing all sides to have a voice while never allowing bias to cloud your judgement. I have a lot of trust that the BE team has another qualified community driven staffer to watch over it. 

 

 

 

 

[Sparklefan1234 173,388]

Congratulations, @The Recherche! 

 

[Wannabrony 11,640]

Oh. My. God. This is amazing!!!!

I usually don't spam "!", but just for once I will!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DJ, I'm so proud of you, you're amazing, you deserve every bit of this, I cannot be happier for you, best of luck moving forward in the position!!! I hope you don't forget this friend you made basking in the glory of being staff!!!!! You've achieved so much and been so nice to all of you, there is no better candidate for this position. Dark Horse, you made a great choice.

Congrats again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edited June 9, 2018 by Wannabrony
Used "your" instead of "you're". I'm a sin now.

[ZethaPonderer 2,200]

Huh? Well now. Didn't expect this. Congratulations @The Recherche.

[UglyBTD 589]

I've only been here a week and I still think this is awesome. 

A well deserved honor for a very honorary [and stylish] pone. 

[Totally Nyx 36,230]

Congrats @The Recherche and good luck!

You're damn right it was~!

Jokes aside, thank you so much for your kind words, Jeric! I won't lie to you; puberty was not kind to me. If you met me when I was 12, and then met me again today... you wouldn't think I was the same person. While I hate to toot my own horn, I think a lot of my attitude was born out of my adolescent immaturity. In other words, the idiotic posts I made, the debates I was asking to lose, the overall piece of garbage that I was... probably molded me into a better person that I would be otherwise. They say the best teacher is experience, and I completely agree with that.

My mother has always said that I have been 90 since I was 8. While this is obvious hyperbole, I agree with her on some level; I only occasionally get along with my peers. I'm not sure why, but I've always had an easier time talking to adults than to folks my own age, even when I was going through my angst phase. Most of the adults I have spoken to throughout my youth up to now have been impressed with my character, and while I hate to stroke my ego once again... perhaps it was building up to something like this all along.

Regardless, I'm absolutely honored to join you and the many other staff!  While Beyond Equestria can be quite a hostile environment... my years of making a fool of myself are over, and I intend to keep it that way.

[King of Canterlot 9,603]

It's official, Rarity is our new overlord, time to hand over the key to my closet and let her do her thing  

But really, holy cow, this is really really cool! I never expected something like this to happen, but it's all the better that it did, because your probably the most qualified person to be on staff (well, at least in my head you are) 

Maybe Pinkie Pie will drop by later and give you a cake, as this is a birthday present definitely worth celebrating!  

[CheeryFox 23,822]

Congrats to thee--yeeeeeeeee! 

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,162]

I apologize for not commenting sooner; yesterday kicked my butt something fierce and I was just whipped. ^^;

In any case; my congrats to you @The Recherche! I don't have the experience with you that Rosie has, but I could tell that you has maturity beyond your years from what I saw of you. Having a fellow like you contribute to Beyond Equestria will be immensely helpful, and I feel we will truly benefit from your presence; and having @Sunset Rose as a teacher never hurts.

Congrats my friend; congrats! ^^

[Prometheus 3,038]

Wow, major congrats my dude, @The Recherche!

It's honestly astounding how far you've come in your short time here, especially all the support you've amassed and how much of an impact you've made here. Honestly, you deserve each bit of praise you get lad, you're one of the soundest blokes on here and I'm glad you're getting the love you deserve. 

 

[Nightfall Thunder 1,937]

Congratulations on becoming staff! 

You've been nothing but nice to me and everypony I have seen you communicate with, as well as being very active. I don't think there are many more qualified to be staff than you! 

Good luck with your staff role, I hope it goes well! 

[Alexshy 14,709]

Congratulations @The Recherche!!! Stay fabulous

I truly extend mine hope, thou shan't be disappointed, which is possible methinks due to high friendliness of the place. Dost not take personal offense, if 't be true somepony treateth thee worse than deserved, merely because of thy moderator position. Takest this with a grain of salt, in case befalleth. Thou can trust somepony with over 7 years mod experience, other places are not that nice, moderating thither is herding cats alike (zero profit and thou art going around scratched always). Thus consider thyself lucky, becoming a mod at an overly friendly board Mine wish of best of luck upon thee and thy newly obtained duties *giggles*.

 

[碇 シンジン 27,433]

Post looks like that on my phone but congrats to Recherche on sectional, looks like the staff has become one step closer becoming fully Rarified.
