I just got a little shock!
I just refreshed the forum main page (as it had been sitting there idle for about 10 minutes while I chatted on IRC and played Xbox :D)
And up comes a little pop-up telling me I have a PM, which didn’t surprise me, I do get them from time to time (honest), and then I read the title: “Interested in being a part of our staff?“
I was incredibly surprised, but honoured, so I said yes. And that is the simple story of how I became a Moderator/Staff Member on UbuntuForums.org
