So four years ago the Forum Mentor group was introduced and I was promoted to the staff. Four years later, I'm still a Forum Mentor and the only one of the original left still in that position.

I can't believe I've been a staff member for longer than I was a normal member. I couldn't really imagine it another way anymore. And there is really a lot I owe to my promotion, in terms of experiences, lessons and maturing. When looking back at when I was promoted, I realize I was actually still a kid. Between then and now, so much has happened. Now I'm about to start with university and I look forward to it.

This also means I've been carrying the Senior News Finder title for a year. Boy, boy, how time passes.

Thank you Black Six for promoting me and to everybody on the staff and on the site for making my job and that time worthwhile! Here's to another year!
