I am very happy to announce that, following my
Farewell to ganjbakhash, 2 members have come forward and have volunteered to become board Moderators here. I have also had discussions with a third, who has also agreed to serve.
baz is quite new here, but has a background in the telecommunications industry. Members will know from his posts that he also runs his own services. He has kindly agreed to Moderate on the
03 and 0845 concurrent call call-through board, and to assist Graham on the
Roaming & callback services board.
davegr has been with us for longer, and also has some sort of telecommunications experience. He has kind agreed to Moderate on the
PAYG Mobile International Calling Service board, and also the
Top-up Calling Service for Virgin Media Fixed Lines board.
In fairness to dgr, I should say that he does not have a Virgin Media landline himself, but he has been making use of the service from his O2 Simplicity contract.
Some experience of using the service seems better to me than leaving the board without a Moderator.
yoursinlove has been with us for some time. He does not have the background of the other 2 volunteers, but his lack of outside experience and knowledge is more than made up for by his keenness to serve. He has kindly agreed to Moderate on the
Irish callthrough services board, and on the
Text-through service for all networks board.
I should like to pay special tribute to his enthusiasm, as he left the choice of boards to me to decide, and was not put off when I made this selection for him, even though he has not had experience of using the services himself. I know that he has already been reading up on them avidly ( and he has sent me very probing questions about the Text-through service for all networks, which I have forwarded to Mikael to answer. )
I give my warm welcome to all three, and would ask members to do so likewise. Please help all of them to settle in to their new jobs, and to 'learn the ropes'.
