After receiving some great applications, we have made our decision, and can reveal that we have selected three members to become part of the Admin crew here on PCM.daily: Ian Butler, Jesleyh and TheManxMissile. All three have been active members across the whole site, who have been involved in a number of initiatives here already.
Ian Butler has made a name for himself in the Stories part of the forum in particular, including involvement with the 'Writer's Block' magazine, and he will be taking on Pellizotti2's role in charge of our WeeklyNews segment.
Jesleyh - the 'bookies favourite' for the job - is somebody who has already been involved with PCM.daily work as part of our database team for a number of months. His allround PCM knowledge will certainly be beneficial now that he is an admin!
And last but not least, TheManxMissile impressed with an application full of different ideas and suggestions for improving the website, some of which he will now be taking responsibility for. For example, one thing that this site has always lacked in the past is some form of PCM Online Championship!
It was good to see the amount of interest there was in an administrator's role, with the position of writing the WeeklyNews seeming to be highly coveted. It also seems that mresuperstar might need to look in to a bodyguard, as a number of applicants wanted to do the sort of things that he is currently doing! At the end of the day it isn't only the administrators who make this site what it is, and there are plenty of ways to contribute outside of being an admin.
But for now, congratulations and good luck to the three who have been chosen! |
