Welcoming roentarre as a moderator!

I'm happy to announce that James (roentarre) is joining us as the last of the four new moderators this month. You'll now be able to contact him, in addition to myself and all the other moderators, with any routine forum matters.

Our moderation team is now closed to new members

Congratulations James!

m8o, glad to see you lurking around. A little lonely without you guys from the early period. So many members have come and go.

I am a little neurotic at the moment. Besides my main work, I am working on 2 part time jobs. Lately, I am trying to maintain two forums: one is about food and the other one is about Buddhism.

Photography wise, I am working on several projects in order to produce some local art communities. Interestingly, I am not doing it for money :P

I will try my best

Thanks for the encouragement. I think I am aiming to moderate the "threads" not the people

All right James!

James has to be the coolest, calmest forum member around. He always finds the time to encourage aspiring photogs and seasoned vets. Of course I haven't read all 7,000+ of his post, but I've never seen him raise his voice, or say anything harsh to anyone.

He should be a Mentorator.

Mark, you are being too nice. In fact, I had lost temper on 3 occasions and it was bad enough for me to do that. After all, I can only learn to be at peace with myself first.

In pentaxforums and DPR, there are many mentors that we are keeping in touch eventhough many had gone to the canikon lands. I do know that they miss the pentax community spirit which is an anomaly in other photog communities.

As long as you do not consider the news/rumour section as a "community", the rest of the forum is pretty cool.

Great to have an Aussie on the team, especially as the forum seems to be attracting us like outback flies. Congrats, James, I know you'll do a fine job. As a fellow Buddhist allow me to say that I'm sure your contribution will be well and truly Right Work!
