    Please take a moment to congratulate and welcome HTMLSpinnr and Paradox as the new moderators for the Gen III 2010 Prius forums!

    As PriusChat continues to grow, it will be very important to have moderators who can keep the discussion focused and can take care of keeping the place clean :eek:.

    I've been lucky to have 3 great sidekicks over the last 6 years who have helped make PriusChat the wonderful site it is today. Evan, Tony, and Tideland will continue to be "overlord" moderators of the whole site, but we felt it was time to bring in some fresh, I mean, new blood.

    Wish them luck! They have no idea what they just signed up for!:welcome:

    Whew! Welcome guys. The huge response to the Prius III has really pushed out post numbers into the stratosphere and we're glad to have you on board to help keep the ship keel down!

    Congrats and welcome to your new positions, guys.
    I'm pretty new here, but I've come across your helpful and informative posts already.
    I'm expecting my new (and first) Prius in the next month or two, so hopefully
    I too will be able to offer some help and info to others who seek it.

    I like that.

    I have to admit that it's kind of nice knowing that there's one less forum I have to pay as much attention to. I was planning on digging out my old graphs of PriusChat growth to see what it looks like this past year. Probably curving straight up.

    Congratulations to the both of you. I'm sure it due (in no small part) to your thoughtful, insightful posts. Now to amend your "titles" to include moderator, or super moderator, or Alpha Wolf Squadron Moderator (or something like that).

    I hope you both hired an agent and lawyer to strike a decent deal with Danny. Like a complimentary floor mat set every two years.

    You've both made superb contributions to PC and certainly deserve this promotion. Congrats!

    Mark & Rick: Congratulations are in order, but "Thank you" is the more appropriate response, I think!

    You guys are great for PriusChat, and I'm very glad you've both agreed to take on this very valuable role.

    Note my title - already changed, though I'll miss "I've owned all three generations" :(

    Another interesting note - Sub-forum mods have Orange text in their names. Global mods have Green, and site admins (Danny) have Red.
