Man I go away for a few days climbing and another of our guru's hangs up his blue jacket... :thumbdown:

Seriously though, as Rad say's, work and other events get in the way of our hobby, and there's nothing wrong with that...

You have been a shining light to all new members on HD and what you don't know about AG, really is'nt worth knowing...
Keep in touch man... :thumbup:

I like your new lavender, purple, mauve jacket also...

MR, RD,

I think MR's avatar needs some updating. From now on, shouldn't it be chewing on a pink rubber duck? And how did you get your dog so far as to set its teeth in rubber duck? Is your dog female with a grudge?

RE: purple 'n stuff:

How about "mentor emeritus" as a title for those who have served and are now semi retired?

And purple is a very good regal/royal color.

The reason, is because they are no longer moderators of any forums. In phpbb, 'the team' is simply a list of all persons who have some form of moderation capabilities.

Admin and global moderators, are of course moderators.

The mentor team, has been given moderation rights in the 'Q/A with mentors' forum. That is why they show up on the team.

I guess if we needed to have the retired peeps, show up on 'the team', I guess we can make a special forum for them, ('The Geriatric forum' would be about right for blanik, lol), and then make them moderators of that.

However, as of stepping down, they have specifically asked to have the responsibilities of day to day site administration removed from their shoulders, thus have joined a different section of 'the team'.

Thanks for the explination Husker. I just seen 3 purple jackets in the list and assumed they should all be there.
('The Geriatric forum' would be about right for blanik, lol),
He's one of the 3 showing up still on the list. And yes it would. :lol:

Edit: Looks like they are gone now. Never Mind.

Be kind to the geriatrics, I have an idea I am not all that much younger than Blanik.

Feels that way sometimes anyway.
