CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

In light of recent events, I feel like extending a few words of gratitude to those who are constantly pouring their hard work into the maintaining and safety of CAA. The goal of this thread is meant as a means of encouragement. It's simple: Each user post a few of your own words encouragement related to the CAA staff.

You guys rock. Maintaining a site like this must not be easy, but you are willing to pour the effort and time into making this one of the cleanest, safest, best places on the web. And while it may be a thankless job sometimes, that doesn't mean we aren't thankful. Keep up the good work, and don't give up the good fight!

thanks so much for maintaining the site, and trying your hardest to keep it up and going!!

good jeeoouurrbbb!!

Who?

Oh, yeah. I like them, even if I am afraid of them.*


*no, not really.

Indeed, you guys are the greatest. What more can be said?

Thanks Guys!!!

"Safe? Who said anything about safe? "Course the mods aren't safe. But they're good."

Admin/Mod Appreciation Thread

Another one of these?*





*just kidding, you rule

I could start singing somthing about you guys being the air beneath my wings...but I won't. Thanks for the kind words guys. We "lurve" you guys. (rip off a girl I know on YIM) You know who you are.

I have to agree... ^_^ The Lord really has been working with all of you to make this site safe and fun for its users. Though you're not perfect (and who is?), you're all doing a great job. Keep it up for His glory.

I agree. Temporarily shutting down the site was sharp thinking. A great big thank you from the Bard to all of the staff here. You are so greatly appreciated both for what you do as your duty to the CAA and for just being the wonderful people you are. God bless you.

Thanks for all the great things you do for this forum and its members! I'll pray that God will bless you and direct your paths.

*raises glass of rootbeer* A TOAST TO OUR MOST TOTALLY AWESHOME MODDIES! and ADMINIES! ^_^ (I like the long e sound..sorry it is not meant to be derogatory)

ANYWHOOOOOOO!

You are guys are awesome, and you do a FANTASTICAL JOB!

Hooray a-for admins n' mods!!

I know I don't interact with you a lot, but thank you to all the guys and gals in blue and red for maintaining this wonderful site. May God bless the lot of you.

You guys definitely deserve all the appreciation this site has to offer right now...I can't thank you enough for what you guys did today, and what you've done in the past in order to keep this site alive! I know you all work so hard, but know that you're all doing a fantastic job in the positions in which you have been placed, and we all thank you from the bottoms of our hearts! Great job mods, you really knocked 'em out!

These threads crop up from time to time, and all I can say about them is... Its been far too long since we had one!

And here is a song that I have addapted from HMS Pinafore by Gilbert and Sullivan:

CAPT. You are the Mods of the CAA;
ALL. And a right good Mods, too!
CAPT. you're very, very good,
And be it understood,
you command a right good site,
ALL. they're very, very good,
And be it understood,
they command a right good site.
CAPT. Though the site sometimes goes down,
Mith fixes it without a frown,
And gets it back up by 3:00;
they're never known to quail
At the furry of a troll,
And they're never, never sick at sea!
ALL. What, never?
CAPT. No, never!
ALL. What, never?
CAPT. Well... Hardly ever!
ALL. they're hardly ever sick at sea!
Then give three cheers, and one cheer more,
For the hardy Mods of the CAA!

Yes, fantastic job the mods/admins are dewing....er, doing.

And here are a few ancient quotes I dug up to prove they are appreciative-worthy:

You guys really are awesome. In terms of troll control, I am very grateful for all your hard work to keep this place clean and fun. You all do so much to keep this community together, and for that, you deserve this:

Yeah!

Thank God for you guys! Especially considering that "impending doom" on Saturday. Yeah, right, like we're gonna have any "impending doom" with you guys around!

I would say that the Mods here do a superb job

Generally I appreciate but do not respond to these threads, but then an opportunity for pedantic sarcasm emerged.

Steeltemplar wrote:I would say that the Mods here do a superb job

But what? Did we do something wrong?

I am a proud admin on my own site, and I know how it feels to be an admin. you do a ton of work, and then usually, people never give you gratitude. so that's why I say.

hug each admin you can find. they deserve it!

My parents have pastored a church in the past, and seeing just how much hard work goes into the ministry (especially when dealing with people) gives me a somewhat broader view on just how much of a job the mods here have to deal with. With that, you guys are probably in my prayers the most.

You guys are the best team of moderators and admins on any site I've been to. CAA is a truly great community. No where else have I seen such comradery with such a large number of members. You guys keep things nice and orderly here putting the banhammer down on trolls quickly, moderating threads, keeping the site up (well most of the time;)) and answering questions. You're all awesome and have built a great thing here, keep it up we all truly appreciate it.

Wow, Steve. That right there would be all I want from Santa this year.

That aside, I think it's pretty self evident that the mods rock. There are many reasons for that, but the first one is "because" and the second one is that "Osaka says it's true" and the third is that they take a lot of burden and heat for just doing a fabulous job of protecting this site and its members. Y'all=teh roxxors.

I hate all mods. I hate all admins. I only like myself. I especially don't like Gypsy. She's dumb. And mean. And...uh...mean.

And Shatterheart? What a dolt. If you cloned him 5 billion times, he might have enough intelligence to tie his shoe, if he didn't drool all over himself first.

Ashley? Feh. Texans mean about as much to me as a festering bowl of dog snot...

Ooh! Zilch, you had better watch out, Gypsy, Shatterheart and Lightbringer all know where you live, and You just messed with texas, so I will give you about 48 hours befor Ash has driven to the frosty north to whoop you into eternity. Have a nice 2 days Zilch. Have a nice 2 days.

You know all those things you told yourself that you wanted to do one day. Tommorrow is that day.

Two days? As soon as Gypsy finds out, I don't think he'll last two minutes.
