Universal Love Vicky Park has left the moderating tent.

Well done Vicky Park, thanks for an awesome mod tour of duty and all your efforts to maintain civility on the board.

 

[jmac70]

Perfect

A blessing in disguise. VP can now turn her full attention to the pressing matter of player hair-do's. Let's just say a number of our boys could do with some tonsorial guidance.

 

[FireKrakouer]

Thanks for volunteering all the time you did to making this forum a more enjoyable space for everyone, VP. Always enjoyed your sense of humour.

 

[TheBaron]

People who step up for these roles deserve to be acknowledged. Well done VP.

 

[Vicky Park]

I think I've broken the like button.

Thank you Gone Critical for your beautfiul words, I really appreciate it.

Thanks also to my (former) fellow mods, and to all you guys, for your kind words.

Being a mod these last four or so years has been 'interesting'. When in 2014 I told some girl friends that I was taking on the role, one of them said 'Are you mad? BigFooty is a testosterone fueled bullring with everybody fighting and attacking each other!'

And she was right, but only some of the time.

The rest of the time the Pies board is a big, rumbling, diverse and alive community of Pies fans, that I love to be part of. We all want the same thing, we just disagree on how to get there.

I'll miss the modding and camaraderie of the mod team. I'll miss giving TradeDraft the occasional day off, to calm him down. I'll miss waiting and watching for the latest iteration of BucksBoys/DraftBalta. I'll miss arguing with THATSGOLD and his new partner in crime, Help My Club. No, correction, I'll still be around to argue with TG and HMC.

Anyway, I'm not going anywhere, just stepping back, having lost my magic powers and my blue tracksuit.

And thanks again to all. Its mostly been fun, and its never been boring.

cheers

VP

Thank you for everything VP, you're a gem.

 

[Vicky Park]

No!!!!!!!!!!!! I will miss you Vicky Park

You are 90% Helen Mirren



And 10% Iron Lady

Could we make that 99% Helen Mirren, and 1% Iron Lady?

One of my fave people since I've been on BF. Sad to lose someone so good as a mod but great that you'll still be around.

Don't worry VP, I'll eventually get around to trying that recipe out.

She should make her way down to the club and get the messy ones straight back in order!

Especially pre photo day.

There's no one nicer on BF. Guaranteed.

When Ben Reid speaks take heed.

WalterBlaknWhte is the Ben.

But you knew that.

Ps The Ben has always bowed to your superior ways re his many few strands of hair.

Great work VP - you have always been a very calming influence on a highly emotionally charged board. In fact i think I almost invariably want to "like" anything you ever post.
Enjoy the step down from those responsible ones back to joining the rest of us minions.

However - do not for a second think that we will be tolerating any withdrawal from your sought after commentary on the assortment of hairstyles that our "boys" seem to think they can get away with.

Ben you’ve gone all soft.

Even an ex mod can whip you into shape.

Soft

 

[Quicky]

Hey Vicky, thanks for all your hard work! I don't think some people appreciate how much work can go into it! You've done a brilliant job and this place is better for it. Enjoy mod retirement aye

 

[Black_White]

Thanks for your efforts VP.
As a short term mod on another Magpie board I know how frustrating it can be.
Thankfully I never, ever, ever, added to your frustration..............
Anywhooo.....enjoy Being just another Pie tragic.

Well us Normal People don't see what happens Behind the Scenes.

So who is taking Vicky Park Place on the Mod Team?

I'll miss giving @TradeDraft the occasional day off,

So it was YOU who was doing that. Though I guess someone will be doing that Job this Season
