Community Builder: In recognition of those who have helped build the AFF community. - Issue reason: Raptor: For Continued, and prolonged service to the wider Ford Community 
Default Changes to Forum Administration Team

Good evening

It is with pleasure that we announce the appointment of two new Forum Directors to join the team along with a change in role for two of our existing (and founding) FD's.

Chucky and Philbie will take on new roles as Forum Advisers. Their input over the last 18 months and beyond (at the old site) has been invaluable in the development of this site and we look forward to their continued involvement in their new roles where their combined wisdom and experience will continue to benefit us all.

Spoolman and wulos join the team as new Forum Directors. Both of them have proven themselves to be valued contributors to this forum in a variety of roles and we look forward to their input as we move forward.

Let me add, on a personal note, that it has been an immense pleasure working with Chucky and Phil during the last several years. They have been good friends and great companions on this journey we have been on and it is a pleasure to know them both.

Please join us as we welcome the new members of the team.

Cheers
Russ

Thanx for the opportunity to help out & keep AFF as the best Ford related site on the net! Will certainly have our work cut out for us, as the standards that FM & Philbie have set are quite high (and without doubt their continued support in their new roles will be equally as important.)
At the end of the day - we're here to help fellow ford fans to be a genuine part of our community.

Great to see, having knowing most of these guys pretty well they are all very loyal and helpful to the whole AFF site and are an asset to its continued success

Considering it's all voluntry, there is a LOT of work that goes into not just the moderation duties of reading 100's of threads every week, but organisation of events and features on the forums, plus responding to queries and other administrative matters

Thanks Guys, I look forward to assisting the Admin team here at AFF in making sure our site stays in a good healthy state.
Also thanks to Phil & Chucky for their contribution in taking this site to where it is today 17,000 plus members along with many good sponsors have been added.
It’s a big achievement in a very short time from this admin team.

Ditto here!

I know the new guys will be a magnificent addition to the Forum Directors chair & as always am here to offer words of wisdom (or delusion!) when required.

Cheers,
