Members of X Marks.

It is with great pleasure that I announce. and encourage you all to join myself and all the staff, in welcoming a new member of the Forum Staff.

Effective this evening we induct Father Bill as a Forum Moderator.

For over two years Father Bill has been posting to X Marks. While not as prolific as some, each and every post he makes has shown that Father Bill truly cares about this forum and his fellow members.

If there is one word that characterizes those chosen to join the staff it would be moderate. Father Bill has shown himself to be the epitome of moderate.

I would like to thank all the Forum Moderators as they considered new staff members. Your willingness to consider members with different viewpoints and perspectives is testament to your faithful stewardship of this word we call X Marks.

Father Bill, welcome and I thank you for accepting this responsibility. To volunteer for a job knowing little of what it entails on a daily basis is a true leap of faith.
