Lacuna is being promoted to Admin Assistant this month! Lacuna demonstrated excellent leadership abilities and dedication in both her past roles as a Roleplay Moderator and a Global Moderator, so we know she'll do well in her new role. Well done Lacuna!

Jack is hanging up his Oekaki Mod hat so he can move into the Global Moderators team this month! Congrats Jack

Metallic Dragon and Drizzle both re-joined the Global Mod team a few months ago, after each taking a brief retirement. We're a little late on the welcome-back party, but aren't we happy to see them back where they belong

Sadly we do have one retirement to announce this month too.
PitchBlack first joined the oekaki mod team way back in 2011! It's always tough to farewell long-term staff, but after all those years of service PitchBlack has earned a decent break and we wish her all the best

Let's offer our congratulations to the successful new team members, to those who got promoted, and wish our retiring staff all the best for the future!
