Newest Promotions

[Revenga]

It's hard to believe this community is nearly 9 years old already, and since we're announcing some new promotions today, I'd like to begin by thanking everybody who held these positions before:

 

President/Owner, Vice President, Board of Directors, Administrative Manager, Administrative Officers, Executive Officers, Technical Director, Technical Administrator, Account Administrator, Marketing Administrator, Event Coordinator, Web Administrator, Community Enforcers, Community Advisors, and last but far from least, Legends.

 

Because of the dedication and work you all put into this place, we are where we are today, and we were where we were when others were in these roles before you, with you, and after you. It's amazing to think how much this community has evolved and we really appreciate the things you've done for us. So many of you we can't thank enough for going above and beyond to do things you knew were right or good for the community without being asked, even though it might have required more work, more time, and more effort. But that's ultimately what makes this place run smoothly. Thank you all for dedicating so much time and energy to SG, and ZM for those who were here when it was still ZM.

 

Many of you may not have seen some of the titles above in years, and some of the newer members may not have seen them before at all. But I think it's important to know how this community got to where it is today, and with the anniversary of our forums approaching shortly, this is a great time to thank those individuals for everything they have done for us. We would not be here if it wasn't for those who built this place in the beginning, so take a moment to appreciate that history that got us where we are. We've had many great higher up teams over the years, and we have a great one now as well. Thank you all.

 

With that being said, here are the promotions we are announcing today:
