Goodbye, And Thanks For All The Fish!

[AB Editor]

Dear All,

After 8 or 9 years (I honestly can't remember) of looking after, moderating and editing The AnswerBank in some capacity, I am moving on to pastures new.

I've enjoyed watching the site change over the years, from the frankly wild and lawless place I inherited to the fairly well-rounded site we have now (with a lot of silliness in between).

It has been a pleasure serving the community and I look forward to seeing how it grows and changes in the future. My last day of tyranny will be Friday 30th June.

Naturally, we're not leaving you Edless. In fact, the current Spare Editor will be stepping up to fill in my role (but you know, better). She will be taking up the AB Editor account and using that as their main form of communication with you, our dear readers.

The new Ed has lots of exciting things planned, and I am looking forward to enjoying them as a member.

Yes, I'll be signing up as a regular after I leave so I can check in on the usual troublemakers :)

I am sure there's something I've missed, so please feel free to ask questions below.

So , youv'e cleaned up dodge city and your off now ?

[MargoTester]

Dear Ed I wish you all the very best in your new career, you'll be missed. Hope you've got Spare Ed well trained!

[Mamyalynne]

I wish you luck in pastures new and am glad you'll still be popping in to join in all the fun.

Thanks for your Edship thus far ♥

[Smowball]

Oh no, what a shame! Will be sorry to see you go.You've done a great job xx

[MargoTester]

PS - were you 'angling' for a compliment

[AB Editor]

Bazile, exactly that.

Margo, she's the better, younger model.

Thank you Mamya, thanks for all your help :)

[Samuraisan]

Good luck Ed, hope everything goes well for you.

[AB Editor]

Smowball - thank you.

Margo, of course. Smow fell for it hook line and sinker :P

[mushroom25]

.....any chance you could fix the site for IE users before you go, is there? :-0

[AB Editor]

Samuraisan - me too, or I'll have to come back as the tea boy.

[gness]

Good luck in your new pastures, Ed......be happy and thank you...Gx

p.s. Will we have to guess which new member is you?..... ;-)

[Bazile]

crikey - a best answer from the Ed - thanks :-)

[AB Editor]
