Please say hello and a word of welcome to our new moderator. I'm happy to have him aboard. All my help left, and good help is hard to find. But, we found him.

Best of luck to you, MadMonkey. I must be a tyrrant chasing off all those other people. But, the truth of the matter is I wanted you here all along. Make yourself at home.

TexasToest: As you know, I have had trouble accessing this board since the addition of embedded vidoes and my internet problems, plus due to my workload now and having limited time on the site these days, I was unable to keep up with this board and give it the attention it deserves. That is the reason I left my position here and I thought you understood that. It wasn't because you were a tyrant.

I think you have done an exemplary job of being the Main Mod here. You have brought this board to life since you took it over. You have an amazing love of music and have an incredible knowledge of it, and have added to this board a vast array of different musical styles and tastes. That's why I suggested that you take the board from me in the first place.

To be honest, I was a little upset and hurt by your post.

Also, the way you worded your post, it almost gives the implication that we didn't agree with you wanting Mad Monkey here and that is simply NOT true. You never even mentioned adding him as a mod to me. I would have wholeheartedly agreed!

I enjoyed being a part of this board for the time I was involved here, and I thank you for having me here.

Mad Monkey: Welcome and congrats on being a new mod on this board. I'm sure you will make a wonderful addition and be a good support to Texas Toest and give this board the attention it deserves. Thanks for stepping up! </b>
