Congratulations Badbear

[BadBear]

Thanks . I don't spend a lot of time on reddit, I mainly use it as a newsfeed. I don't find it very good for actual discussion. I hadn't seen those threads til they got linked here, surprisingly sane and rational, for reddit. Though I don't think there's a lot of crossover between reddit users and forum users. which is what drives most of the complaints.

I do think I'm pretty good at what I do. I had my doubts about being an admin, but I think I've stepped up and done well.

As for it being nepotism, we're not friends (not for any specific reason, we just don't really talk about things non-forum related), certainly not relatives. Colleagues would be a much more accurate description.

I don't like how reddit is being moderated by the exact same people as bitcointalk.
Not that I would use reddit anyway, but I doubt that it's good for the bitcoin community.

Most of all, I do believe that it would be in the best interest of bitcointalk if its mods were concentrating on it alone and not be distracted by other forums.
We already lack moderation in parts of the forum and complaints about recovery of accounts seem to indicate that there's more manpower needed for this task.

Then again, for you personally reddit may be a nice distraction from what you have here, so congratulations anyway.

Good for you. I am sure that there is no conflict between here and reddit. You have a lot of experience with Bitcoin and have done us a great service as administrator.

I might be late but congratulation BadBear. I have never had a direct conversation with BadBear on the board but I know he is a good and active user of this board. It is good that he became one of the newest moderator or /r/bitcoin.
