Fanofthegreats Retires! 

Post#1 » by Howard Mass » Sat Feb 16, 2008 8:51 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.

take a couple of seasons, play some softball, then make your triumphant comeback . . . looking forward to it.
