Hey there, This post is to let you know that @kersploosh@sh.itjust.works and myself have recently been appointed as admins here by @TheDude@sh.itjust.works to help them and @imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works with moderation.

We’ve been meaning to introduce ourselves for a while, but hadn’t taken the time just yet, here it is.

I’ll be posting more about me as a comment below because this is getting long already.

Bonjour,

@TheDude nous a récemment ajouté, @kersploosh et moi comme admins dans le but d’aider l’équipe (@TheDude et @imaqtpie) avec la modération du site.

Ça fait un moment que nous voulions faire ce post pour s’introduire, alors voilà.

Je vais écrire un peu plus d’info à mon sujet dans un commentaire ci-bas.

    English intro

    About me as a person: 

    I’m a network engineer with a focus on large enterprise and ISP networks.
    As such, my superhero power is simply being calmer than most people during a crisis, outages or other dumpster fires…
    That and tying knots in ropes with my bare toes, which sadly doesn’t come up as often as the first, but at least now you know.

    I’m from Québec and I speak French at home.  I’m also fluent in English, feel free to reach out to me in French or English either on here, DMs, reports, etc.   My hobbies include (in no particular order) mini painting, 3d printing, home automation, self-hosting, video games, hiking, camping, and a few other things.  My username is inspired by Planescape: Torment which is still my all-time favourite CRPG. 

    About me as an admin: 

    So far, my time as an admin here has mostly been spent on removing Spam, CSAM, or otherwise  harmful or illegal content. 

    As an admin… I feel like curating what fits in a specific community, as in being off-topic or not, is likely out of my scope and would rather leave that to community mods whenever possible. Abusive content is another story.

    While I don’t plan on removing content or banning users that I merely disagree with, I think a minimum of civility should be expected.  I have no qualms removing slurs, racism, transphobia, death threats, etc. 

    But really, it’s about you: 

    All of this is about making this place more enjoyable for you. 

    I’ve already interacted with a few of you, either through recent reports (which I try to reply when I can) or from my time before that, and I try to be mostly reasonable and helpful. 

    See you around.
