Spotty - Spotty is one of our long-term staff, who first joined the team as a General Helper in 2011 and was then promoted to global moderator in 2012. Spotty has been a huge supporter of CS since the early days, and we soon got to know her beautiful artwork she was frequently submitting to the fanart gallery. Since joining the mod team, she's also made some extra special contributions as an occasional pet & item artist. We'll really miss having her around, but life is too busy for Spotty these days so she's having to hang up her mod gloves. We hope she'll still visit when she finds a spare minute

Mem - previously known as Kaizoku - Kaizoku joined the General Helpers team in early 2014, and has put many generous hours into helping countless members get started on CS. If you posted an introduction in the past year there's a good chance Kaizoku welcomed you to the site, as she made a special effort to see that no-one went ignored. Kaizoku (now known as Mem) will be moving on this month to focus on her schooling and other interests, but hopefully she'll keep visiting CS as a member

New Staff:
Berkshire will be joining the Official Artist team this month! Berkshire has been contributing tons of gorgeous pets and items as a Guest Artist for the past year, and we're happy to welcome her to the team so she can keep sharing her art with us all

Staff job openings:
We've had several retirements this year so we expect to open applications for new moderators and General Helpers sometime in June. Keep an eye out for a news post/announcement about this

Please join me in thanking Spotty and Mem for all their contributions to CS, and please make Berkshire welcome as our newest team member
