We have several staff changes occuring here at PistonsForum.com

Superstarov (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/5.html) has withdrawn from the staff team to focus on life away from the internet. As one of the founding staff members, Supes has been involved with almost every aspect of the board, from design to moderating, building content, planning, you name it. If you've been a member since early last season, in one way or another, you've interacted with Superstarov.

He's become a dear friend of mine, and will be a member in our new Contributors group. Rather than labelling staff as "retired", slippy (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/180.html) thought it best to celebrate the hard work and sacrifices they have made for the community and I agreed. Zoso and LanierFan will also be joining Supes as our first forum Contributors.

I'm also very proud to announce that we've added 5 members to the team this week.

Dumars4Ever (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/384.html), Jammertime (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/48.html), Dlev59 (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/404.html), linwood (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/102.html) and BillLaimbeer (http://www.pistonsforum.com/members/143.html) will be joining us as Forum Guides, sharing in the existing workload as well as adding muscle and insight towards new projects.

I'd like to thank Superstarov and other past staff members, as well as the current team, and membership for choosing to put back into our home for Pistons basketball. Active participation makes this site possible.

Does that mean there are more Staff members than usual posters :sssh: :MusicBigGrin:

actually ralphi just about everyone you see around here is staff...like that jim carrey movie.

Staff here handle a lot of the little details that make the board go. There are some staffers (besides myself) who have invested more than one hundred hours into the board besides posting to threads. Evangelism, design, maintenance, calendar and game thread content, news posting, articles, BBSC.

Because there are so many more things we would like to do going forward and some things we are doing now that could be better, it was necessary to bring in more volunteer manpower. Over time, I am confident you will find these efforts extremely useful.

We will be following up over the holidays with a "things you can do to help the forum" thread that will give everyone the chance to make a small contribution (less than 5 minutes) to keep us heading in a positive direction.

I was just wondering the other day where Superstarov was. I had not seen a post from him in a while. Thanks for your hardwork!!:)

Roscoe, I was just kidding- although I still don't know what most of the Staff members actually do... :stirthepot:

my kudos Mr Superstarov for his valued input and the incoming staff who I know will inject new features and keep the presses going...:ranger:

Woody said it, and double on the FUN part:) Thanks guys

Roscoe, dont know what I can do, please let me know. Right now I struggle with a 7 yr old HP with 62 megabytes RAM and it's slooooow. But next week I get a new HP with 1GB so I'll be flyin around going so fasssst, so let me know if you need me. :)

Will do BSA. Thank you.

Thanks for the recognition Roscoe and all.

When you work 2 jobs, and have a pregnant wife on bed rest, you have to cut back on fun-time. Hence, my retirement. And my lack of involvement around here in the past few months.

I'll be back in the future for some limited action...

Feel free to take some of the time you'd normally spend setting your fantasy hockey roster this week, getting caught up on other things. I won't mind. :MusicBigGrin:

Big fat praise to ya! May these rough time strengthen you; I hope one day you'll look back with pride of how you managed everything.

Thanks for all you've done Super :) Good to see you have your priorities in order and congrats on your forthcoming new Superstar!

Also...Roscoe...you've got some excellent new contributors! :thumb:

On behalf of everyone, thank you. We try our best.

This is still my most checked site on the net, and super has been one of the reasons.

Lucky that the "new guys" are not new at all. Won't miss a beat.

And, super, your wife has out very best wishes. Hope things are on the right track and stay that way.

You guys have done a bang-up job. Thanks.
