The moderation team have long respected Chris' views and contributions here on the WipEoutZone forum, not to mention his recent input regarding what's been a difficult period for the community.

So a couple of days back I suggested to the mod' team that we see if Chris would be interested in joining us and help to spread the workload. Truth be told, Jay had suggested him some months back, but as I was in the process of going nuts at the time I completely forgot.

Being a man who doesn't take his decision lightly, Chris took a day or so to decide once I'd asked him, but he's stepped forward tonight and bravely accepted the responsibility.

Please join me in welcoming SaturnReturn/Chris to the moderation team - I'm sure he will continue to contribute in a positive fashion on the site, as well as offering a balanced and even hand when it comes to moderation duties.
