Over the course of four and a half years we've had a great legacy of administrators for the site including @carbonfibah, @julez, @lissa110, @AlphaSnake, @Phantom, @Strwrsbob, and myself. Each has risen through the ranks showing leadership qualities that become noticed and utilized. They excel in each facet of their responsibilities and are incredibly supportive of the website and community we have established here. Each and every one of them has poured heart and soul and immense amounts of time into bettering the website to make it the best Zombies community out there. It is because of these legacy administrators that the site has become what it has today. Unfortunately, these great administrators come and go as circumstances change and life decisions are made. Or, we experience (or expect) an increase in site usage. Either way, these kinds of circumstances require that members step up to fulfill the role of an administrator.
Now, don't worry, neither myself or @Strwrsbob will be leaving anytime soon. We intend to stick it out well through Treyarch's next game and into next year. But, seeing as how we are expecting an increase in site usage here in the coming months, we have determined that it is appropriate to appoint an additional administrator. Of course, we haven't totally just randomly picked someone from our current staff or even from the forum members. That would just be silly. No, there has been one staff member in particular who has really stepped up and done a considerable amount for the site. Our resident Technical Support Guru has done some amazing things for the site including Forum transfers to new forum software, numerous fantastic plugin installations such as the brains feature, the mention system (which I've shown in this post), and most recently the CoDz Leaderboard. In addition to that he has been working on another large project for the site, which we should be unveiling in the next month or so. Essentially, he has already been a fully fledged administrator in everything except color.
I imagine most of you are already aware who this is by now, but for those who aren't, I would like to formally introduce you all to @Hells Warrrior, AKA Craig. I am extremely grateful to everything he has done for the site and the amazing guy he really is. This site would not be here today in its current form without his efforts. As such, I officially welcome him into the ranks of Administrators and wish him the best in everything he continues to pursue. I also ask that all of you give him a large round of applause and congratulations for this achievement. We look forward to continuing to work with him and all of the future projects we have in store. As I mentioned before, keep an eye out for a big announcement regarding the progression of the site here in about a month.
Until then, keep on zombie slayers!
