Fanofthegreats Retires! 

Post#1 » by Howard Mass » Sat Feb 16, 2008 8:52 am

I would like to announce the retirement of a moderator on this forum.

Fanofthegreats who had been the moderator on the Player Comparisons and Los Angeles Lakers forum has decided to retire as a moderator.

He is currently working at a wonderful non-profit company and has a long trip there each day. When he gets home, his RealGM time is limited and we both feel he should have fun while not having to worry about moderating during that limited time.

Our hope is that down the line he can return to moderating but for now, he will have more time to himself on the forums and carry the title of Retired Moderator.

At this time, I would like to thank fanofthegreats for his service to this forum as a moderator and wish him a happy retirement with the hope that he will return in the future.

Thanks for everything FOTG.
R.I.P. Dharam Raghubir (A.K.A. Magnumt)

I do, who am I gonna call the "other guy now"? the other mods are like my homies. I've known them from their beginnings, exept for crack. crack has been around forever and is a mystery even to himself, all we know is that he occassionally lives in Texas and has a crush on Saharas, Shilohs, Maddoxs, and the other guys mom.
:lol: I may have just accidentally fullfilled the gaping hole that FOTG has left me with.

Well you need to understand the difference between a normal poster and a mod.

No it is disrespect.

You dont have to be part of this thread. So, if you dont care then you dont have to say anything. It has nothing to do with you.

FOTG has been part of this community and RealGm for years and has offered alot. We dont need " Who cares comments" from you.

I will be more than happy to announce your retirement and guess what, it wouldnt get stickied and really nobody would care.
