    Default Welcome New Staff to DP!

    Welcome Jon to the dp.com staff. He'll sheriff the Photography Forum, and even while outside the photog forum, he's due all respect/courtesy/attention in the performance of his duties, or otherwise, as any other staff member.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Well don Jon - best wishes for your duties, I mod elsewhere and I know it's a sometimes onerous task.

    Good luck...

    I've been a mod before... it's a thankless task with an incredible work load but since they're starting you off slowly with just one forum to patrol, you should be able to also have a life offline...

    mayyyyyyyyyyybe...

    again, good luck...

    I guess it was too much to ask to designate someone who is not a conservative Republican as a staff member.

    Jon's a moderate-centrist with no idea which of the two parties he is aligned.


    And I have his SOLEMN PROMISE to NEVER moderate the Photography Forum based on his POLITICAL LEANINGS.

    Congrats Jon. Being a mod isn't easy. You need a thick skin sometimes.
