staff Simon becomes the first chipmunk administrator!

[Sir Hugsalot 8,734]

It looks like "Blame Simon" is back on the menu, everypony 

I am very proud to announce, that @Simon will be a new administrator of MLP Forums, working with the rest of us on ensuring that the community keeps thriving with everyone making wonderful, new memories <3 

Additionally, because of that @Cash In is going to become Head of moderation, having all the necesarry skills to lead our moderation team from now on. Congratulations! 

I already had a pleasure to be his friend several years ago and I can think of no better person to receive this kind of responsibility. The day when he returned to us was a bright day for the community and the way he performs moderation duties is exactly what we are hoping our moderation would be. He's responsible, takes his duties seriously, while still being an incredibly fun person to be around  Exactly the kind of person we need in administration!

Also... he's a chipmunk! In fact, I have evidence. Check out his reaction, when the news was announced to him 

Everyone, give our new administrator a warm welcome <3

Congrats @Simon and @Cash In! 

I think a celebration is in order! 

Spoiler

Whoops, it turns out there still some glitches and bugs in my celebration programs!  Let me fix that!

There it goes, virtual cookies for everypony!

Well this is sure coincidence!  Being that on NBC's TV drama this recent Wednesday, Chief Wallace Boden was promoted as Commissioner of Chicago Firefighters.  Hearing that @Cash In being promoted as @Simon's successor as Head Moderator on the Forums, I won't do anything stupid such as cashing in dirty chips to casinos in Vegas  

To honor this change, I must quote 3 words from that Anthrax song,

Respect the Badge

Congratulations to @Simon and @Cash In on their new jobs.  Many years of Friendship to follow

A happy surprise. Way way back he was Chairman of Poniverse and always had amazing ideas. Like all pioneers, not all the ideas were a success but many were. I’m not sure if you were even in staff back then. Man. Time truly has flown.

Simon was in staff since before staff was even a thing LOL he was a poniverse chairman. 
 

But yeah, you can apply in the meta section if the applications are available. Just remember it’s a trusted role.
 

So being in good standing to the community is important as well as capable of coordinating and carrying site responsibilities.
