for NationStates' newest forum moderator, Euroslavia!
http://www.thisisthelife.com/photos/experiences/opening-champagne.jpg
Chances are, you've seen his work before. He's worked hard on the stickies and been generally helpful as you've noticed -- since many of you have suggested him as a possible new moderator both on the forums and in our Suggest a New Mod campaign.
Best of luck!

Certainly have my vote of support. (Hope that isn't a detriment ...)

Congratulations? I'm not gonna congratulate him! I am, like, totally miserable.
How is he going to have time to help the rest of us the way he used to if he's stuck firmly under Reppy's thumb?
There we go, now he's got a suitably obnoxious pretitle! "The 'Fetching Reploid Seductions a Danish' lands of Uraslave"! ... and further on, "Uraslave, you have much to learn of the arts of Bastard Moderating. Come to the Bastard side, and become my apprentice. I promise you that you'll become stronger, more bastardly, and better equipped to cope with the daily trials the sheep put forward to stymie you."
You know what'll happen? 'The sheep look up, and are not fed.'
Oh, please, won't somebody think of the children?
If the maw of the Modcave ingests Crazy Girl as well, I am going to start writing short posts! That'll show yer!

What do you mean, this is a public board?
Erm...
I didn't mean that, guys. I was just joking. Honest!...?

Nonono! Check the new mod process list (http://repprodthemod.blogspot.com/2005/08/ah-ritual-hazing.html)! We still haven't gotten to the "-[violet] pesters Jolt" part of the list! =p
And that doesn't even include the GM initiation rituals! (Yeah, I remember Coggy's court jester posts back when.) I thought "The Immortal Shogunate and Affiliated Territories" or "The Ordinance-Enabled Karmic Hegemony" were bad enough, but "The Incredibly Brilliant, Modalicious, and Above All, MODEST Goddess-Empress"?! In Mod's name, who thinks up these pretitles? ;) And then there are of course the signs that a new mod will be chosen:
1) Jolt starts acting up. (the time warp & profiles)
2) An old mod retires. (In this case, Myrth.)
3) I post something sensible (in this case, a religion debate).
4) My pretitle changes. (Check my nation. Link in the sig.)
5) A rule is persistently ignored. (All the off-topic threads & threads going over 2000 posts.)
...And others, but [violet] will kill me for revealing them. :D

.....Oh wait, this is a public board! I'm not supposed to reveal my true identity.
However, it may interest you to know that Myrth went inactive just around the time I started posting prolifically.... ;)
Congrats Euro. I voted for ya. So... will you hand over your territories in E2 to me or not?! ;)
Seriously though. Congratulations, and try not to abuse the powers of mod too much.
Wow. You're being rightly hono(u)red, Euro'. I can't think of anyone else who deserves it (of course I would say that; it's fun to have a ally who is a mod). Anyway, congrats, again.

....Or more, depending on his internet connection. :D
And I've also wondered why although most of the mods bear titles reading "NationStates Moderator Team", Coggy is "NationStates Game Mod", and Karma is "NationStates Mod Squad"? And then Myrth was "Teh 1337 m0dz0r", but Myrth is Myrth.... ;)

If memory serves, that's a holdover from the beta of the move to Jolt. (Yes, the mods got to play on a Nationstates that had maybe 18 users total! And we were allowed to totally screw with our nations' stats! My population was 31.337 billion!) At the time, we could alter our forum titles, but for some reason this was removed when the move actually happened.
