As many of you have noticed over the years, I'm pretty careful about what, or how much, I disclose about my personal life. And, I rarely disclose things about moderating the board.
However, if I plan to be away for an extended period of time, I do like to inform folks, so they know the plans.
One of my kids is getting married on Saturday. I'm not sure how much I'll be on the board this Thursday or Friday (7/10, 7/11), but it will be less than the norm. I may check the board a time or two on Saturday, from my phone, but it's more likely that I will be totally off the board on Saturday.
On Sunday, after dealing with the next-day breakfast gathering, and dealing with relatives, I'm headed off on vacation for nearly 2 weeks, so I'll probably be off the board that day as well. I'll be checking the board at times during my vacation (mostly mornings or late evenings), but will not be around anything like my normal amount.
I was concerned about being away from the board for an extended period so soon after the On3 - Rivals merger. However, things have been surprisingly stable on this board with regards to that.
The BWI guys know that I'll be away, and will be checking the board more than usual.
If you need something attended to, but there's no rush on it being addressed/you receiving a response, just tag me in the post. (To do so, type @Tom McAndrew)
If politics breaks out in a thread, or other inappropriate content is posted, or you need something dealt with in a more immediate timeframe (issues with your subscription, problems accessing parts of the site, issues with the merger, etc.) tag one or more of the BWI guys -- Greg Pickel, Nate Bauer, or Ryan Snyder. (To do so, type @GregPickel, @NateBauer, @RyanSnyder)
Have fun over the next two weeks, and as best as possible, behave. Here's hoping that while I'm away, things will run smoothly on the board, and there will be lots of positive news for PSU athletics (as well as my favorite pro teams
)
