Experts Etc

I will ask the admin if I can get mine changed to these ones I use on other forums, when I get to 5000 posts.

Beware of the bear.
Kiss my pixel.

Which reminds me ... where is @catapillar ? An expert if I ever saw one and she should have been a moderator

I've been wondering about that too. I'm pretty sure there was a sticky thread about the results of the 2018 mod elections showing Catapillar was voted in, but I can't find the thread now - I offer no view on whether there has been some airbrushing of history, except to say, it was there, I saw it, and now it isn't there...

Catapillar was outstandingly good at telling newly dx'd T1s that T1 doesn't need to involve extreme low carbing, so I wonder whether her view just didn't chime that well with the general ethos of this site.

Or maybe she just got fed up...

It does not look like @catapillar is with us anymore, as she is not in the staff list here.

Just to clarify: Catapillar hasn't logged on to the forum for some time, so never actually took up her Mod status, after the elections. There is nothing to impede Catapillar logging onto DCUK any time she chooses and I feel certain she would be welcomed back, very warmly, by anyone who knew her.

I do hope Catapillar is well, thriving and is busy, in positive ways, in her life. It would be good to see her again, but that's her prerogative.

No sorry I already took that one some years back.

Must be another glitch in the forum software then, just like the one making all those newly diagnosed type2's insulin dependent in their signature. It only says 'Expert' under your name. I think you'd best contact an admin to ask how you get it changed to the more fitting Lord High Ruler Of The Universe.
