You little ripper, Sharkey!

And thank you for the joy and the honesty and the intelligence and the humour and the sheer open-heartedness/mindedness you bring to the Sphere, not to mention the bloody good poems!

Thank you all so much for these kind words. It came as a surprise, a nice one, to be asked. The sphere and the people I've met here have made such a positive impact on my life in the last couple of years. l'll try my best to do a good job, so bear with me as I work out what all these new buttons do...

Mark

Noooooooooooooooooooo!

Oh okay. I'll get used to it. Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, now, young feller.

Nothing will change, Mr C, certainly not for you. You never need to be moderated, epitome of moderation that you are. And I promise to use my powers for good. (Have I already made that joke?)

Jayne, what do all the new buttons do?

Hey Mark, well done for stepping up! And good luck with the unruly mob in non-Met, you know how averse we are to rules and regularity.

Big congrats, Mark. Non-met (also) has a pretty strong tradition of moderators. One in particular helped me out quite a bit when I first joined. Do I have to salute you now? (I will if you drop a completely inappropriate Pixies reference into a crit here and there.)

Mark, congratulations on this more than moderate new appointment!
