    Hmm, thank you!
    Though I really think I only deserve it because of my relatively early join date, and maybe for spamming in the Backroom.

    Good choice not to include Reverend Joe, look, he always complains anyway.

    But seriously, if I get it, why doesn't Tribesman? I mean his posts usually make even more sense than mine even if some people don't particularly like his style. Just saying since the years pass by and he keeps being a normal member. Or did he explicitly not want it like that HOF award?

    Well, you make a point, but Tribesman is also really provocative. I think quite a number of .org members would be offended by his Senior membership; there was quite a stir with Gawain's and Rabbit's memberships, of I do recall.

    Then again, I must also admit that the conservative members tend (slightly... ) to be more intelligent, open-minded and contributive. Of course, I could be biased because the vast majority of my friends, in real life, are further right than me, mainly in regards to trusting private institutions.

    Almost forgot Fragony, mia muca from Dutchiestan. He's like Tribesie's archnenemy when it comes to certain issues but I like them both. He also joined two months after me so he is a real senior.

    Concerning left and right members I consider myself neither which allows me to like them both and I think both groups have their pros and cons which is exactly why I would never definitely side with either and this should also not be of any concern concerning senior membership, org ranks aren't subject to one off-topic subforum or whatever the members posting in it think.

    Thank you to the Shadowy Cabal of hooded figures that gave me a bump in rank.

    I want to thank all the people, mostly in the Throne Room, who've made my time at the Org a pleasure.

    So this means I'm on the short list for the next round?

    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    The promotions the last years signalizes a change in what just "senior member" means as the title used to be awarded to someone who had done alot TW related, am I right?

    Anyhow and either way, congrats.

    Congrats to all new senior members.

    To those feeling they didn't deserve their promotion, I actually thought most of the names on the list already were senior members, so you must be doing something right.

    The promotions are generally given to people who contribute positively to the Org as a whole. That can take many forms, including things that are not related to TW specifically, since the Org has many aspects which do not relate directly to the TW games.
