Well , I've been a moderator here since Septemberish (not entirely sure when I started ...) last year and feel that the end of the year is a reasonable time to step down . I will still be a regular member of ausmini next year , just not a moderator for the following reasons ,
Firstly as a lot of you are aware from my avatar we are expecting a brother or sister for the little dude in April . That means getting the house ready again for a newborn along with moving the little dude out of the nursery into another bedroom which has yet to be decorated so I'm going to be busy .
Secondly , while I honestly believe the 4 current mods are working well together , some fresh ideas and enthusiasm would help so I'm stepping down and we're bringing in two new mods . I'll still be around as a mod till the end of December to help show the new mods the ropes and ensure a smooth changeover .
Thirdly , I want to go back to being able to post whatever I want without having to think about whether I've modded someone for posting a similar thing recently
I'd like to thank everyone who's supported me both publicly in the forums and privately through PM's throughout my time as a mod .
Last night the current mods had a discussion about some new mods , we came up with 4 names and voted to choose the two we felt were the best for the positions . Pete (pristic) and Nick (1018cc) are the two new mods who will have their mod-ness activated soon , good luck guy's .
) all the best.
