Welcome to the BigBlueBall Team! We’re glad you joined the fun. The Staff Room forum is where you’ll find more info about the roles of the Team Leaders, Advisors and Mentors. You can also post your questions about our policies and suggest new ways to improve the site.
We’ll be assigning permissions and reorganizing the forums over this weekend, so bear with me while we do a little shuffling around. Once this is complete, I’ll post a more formal, public announcement on the site, but in the meantime… just tell folks that good things are happening. 😉
I suggest subscribing to this forum with daily notification, so you’ll be sure to know when there are new posts.
New team members, please introduce yourself. I look forward to getting to know you better.
Thank you guys and gals.. Glad to be able to help. I’ll try my best! *Puts on mentor coat and cracks knuckles* I’m ready for this.
By the way can anybody else see this color coded names? Or just us? Like Jeff is in red and Oreo and Dave are green.
It’s good to be part of the team! I look forward to working with all of you. I can’t wait to get started.
EDIT: And Jeff, do you plan on adding that download section soon? If you are, I can get started on adding files.

No need to wait… jump in! 🙂Someguy03 wrote:And Jeff, do you plan on adding that download section soon? If you are, I can get started on adding files.The Download Section is functional, but I still need to tweak a few things before I officially announce it. There’s no problem sharing links to it or using it now though. I have to fix the footer to match the rest of the site, and I want to reformat the basic list view to show less detail and to look more list-like.Well since i’m not that well-known on here yet, i’d like to state my name, as now is displayed on my avatar, Vanessa. I am very glad to help out and i shall try my best to do a good job. Everyone else on here seems extremely nice so its an honor to help along-side all of you. 🙂 Thanks!
I suppose I’ve been around long enough that a few people here know me… Tigerblade, aka Tom. I’m also looking forward to helping out the crew here. Some pretty big changes in the last few months, and I’ve been fortunate enough to see them all happen, so I figure I’ll give back something.
Thank you so very much all for the warm welcome to the team. It’s been a pleasure posting here as long as I have and I am sure I will enjoy it even more as part of the team. Thank you for having me. I look forward to getting to know you all better.
I’m Amy Lynn and clearly I’m a bit slow as I think I’m like the last person to introduce themselves.
I don’t think I’ve ever introduced myself here, I just barged in 😛 I’m Daniel, a Web developer from New Zealand. I’m behind a few services and resources for MSN Messenger, which earnt me an MVP award. I’ll try and post here a bit more often, it’s hard finding the time but this place is really cool.
Ok, Amy, you’re not the last to introduce yourself! Well my name’s Amy too, I think most people have seen me around here and there. It’s always been a lot of fun here and I’m looking forward to more!
LOL Good one can never have enough Amy’s 😉 After all did you know the name Amy means beloved? As does the name David.
Welcome! You all have obviously given your time and efforts to BBB and I am so glad to be a part of a forum with so many great people. I look forward to meeting the new faces and getting better aquainted with the old 😀
Glad to have you all be a part of the team!
*waddles in late as usual, still wearing her bathrobe* Oh shoot…well hi there. *uncomfortable silence* But yeah, I’m here, nice to be here and all that jazz. I was all scared when I got the little email from Oreo since the only email I’ve gotten from the folks here were to the effect of “BAH! Die die die die die” or something…and even though “BAH! Die die die die die” didn’t sound like Elisa, you never know! Heheh.
But yes, I’m here and it’s lovely to finally see who I’m working with and such. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to find out. I’m pleasantly not-surprised by some of the additions, and also perplexed as to who some of these other folks are (…because I ever go outside of the community center, pfft, yeah right) But it’s good to meet you all.
Hello everyone,
Let me begin with a warning (probably not the wisest thing to do, but I will anyway): I love writing so I apologise in advance for the length of my introduction and I do hope, Jeff, that by the end of this post you’ll know more than enough about me ;).
Who am I?..
Hmm, where to begin? Well, I’m known by the alias “EvilSeph” or (originally) “Sephiroth”. You can usually find me on the MsgHelp.net forums, browsing Neowin.net, on these forums and a number of other communities. I love helping people with MSN Messenger and as such have been recognised by Microsoft as an expert for MSN Messenger (Microsoft MVP) – which is why I’m here, I like BigBlueBall and would like to give back to Jeff and his staff for all their hard work by helping out on these forums as an Advisor.
I’m quite involved with Messenger Plus! both as a community and the product as a beta tester and with Patchou, which is why I was so passionate about getting the truth out regarding the Messenger Plus! sponsor (click for post) and am sometimes involved with the odd Mess.be project (currently the Mess FAQ). I guess I’ll come out and say it – I like, no love to stick my nose into anything related to MSN Messenger as I really enjoy messing around with it and discovering new tricks to add a function or remove one etc. As you can tell, I’m really passionate about MSN Messenger.
My friends online would probably say I like to challenge authority and I agree, I do like to challenge authority but only if I strongly believe that something is wrong and should be changed. I’m pretty experienced with forum management both from a moderator point of view and an administrator point of view as well as forum software in general, IPB, phpBB, vBB, SMF etc.
A little bit about the “real” me…
My name is Warren, I am 16 years old (though some insist I’m 40 or something thanks to the way I behave and act) and I am originally from South African and am now living in Canada. I’m currently in my second year (actually, finishing) of high school and have used a computer for a couple years, been messing around with MSN Messenger for about the same amount of time I’ve been messing around with computers and I have been addicted to IRC for a few years too. My favourite subjects are English, Computer Sciences, Science (kind of…) and Math (kind of…). I enjoy listening to pretty much any type of music except country, classical, oper and western and any hardcore type of music (hardcore rap, hardcore rock etc.). I enjoy reading mystery, fantasy, horror and the occasional romance novel – actually, I enjoy reading a good book regardless of the genre and enjoy writing articles, news posts, letters, tutorials etc. My favourite sports are basketball and cricket even though I’m not the sporty type. Something most people don’t know about me, is that I enjoy singing :).
I’ve not exactly been active on this community as much as I should be as I’ve been dedicating my time to life, school and a couple projects I’m involved in or lead. Also it took me a while to post in here, as I’ve actually been checking my Hotmail daily for a formal notification from Shifter (my group lead?) regarding my status as a BigBlueBall advisor and for that I apologise – I don’t hang around the board index all that much, I usually only focus my efforts on MSN Messenger and browse the IRC section.
Not enough? I’m not really good at writing introductions so feel free to ask me any questions and I’ll edit my post if I feel an answer is needed. I apologise for the atrocious grammar and/or english, I can’t seem to type properly today 😛
Author’s note: Right, I think I should just submit/post this..or I’ll end up adding 2 more pages of ramble :p
Thanks for your time 😉
