Thanks very much for your time @Sean Reedman

Congrats @Phillip Speer

Congratulations. Brilliant choice. 

Fantastic choice, congrats @Phillip Speer. Thanks for your excellent and prolonged service and invaluable contribution @Sean Reedman.

Shame to see you go @Sean Reedman! Enjoy the well deserved time off!

Congrats @Phillip Speer, a brilliant choice!

Thanks for your amazing support other the years, @Sean Reedman. It was a pleasure having you as DCRM. Welcome, @Phillip Speer.

Thanks for the countless hours and service you've given @Sean Reedman, your assistance has been invaluable to many!

Great choice bringing in @Phillip Speer, congratulations on the new role which I know you'll do a similarly fantastic job.

Thank you for the time as DCRM Sean. Phillip, enjoy your new role, excellent appointment! ? 

Phillip, you have some big boots to fill! Congrats on your appointment.

Sean, saying "second to none efforts" wouldn't come close to justifying the amount of time you have put into the division over the last decade. Thank you and good luck in your future ventures!

Splendid choice in @Phillip Speer, a most level headed fella and we know that the stationery will be well cared for in his experienced hands ?

As for @Sean Reedman, he had more than 10 years as an Important Person in this Division. He was Staff when I joined 16 years ago. Who could forget his infamous BBQ in June 2005 when the whole of Chelveston disappeared under a cloud of dense black smoke? (We have aerial photos as proof).  He will be missed.

Thanks for your kind comments and I wish Phil every success in the role - there comes a time when change is needed and a different view and now is that time.

Hopefully I may now get time to fly a bit more and enjoy Vatsim for what it is or more big BBQ  fires ? 

I have enjoyed my time in the role , always dealt with people fairly and based on clear evidence and also tried to guide anyone referred to me down the right route so they don’t return.

In such large networks there will always be people who don’t get on , this is the same in the workplace so my message is , be tolerant , be professional and inclusive even with those that frustrate as there are some things you can’t change , enjoy the hobby and always think before you speak , write or broadcast on the network.

I will be around if anyone needs help or advice  regarding the CRM process via email.

Thanks once again for the kind words

Sad to see you go Sean, enjoy the other side of the Network now!

Fantastic choice @Phillip Speer, see you around!

Thanks everyone for the wishes.  Sean has been around as DCRM pretty much my whole VATSIM life so will be strange to stand in his shoes.  'i hope to be up to speed reasonably quickly and hopefully I don't have to speak to any of you as it means everythings running smootly.  I can ony echo Sean's advise at this stage about thinking before you speak/act.
Thanks Sean for all your years of volunteering and working for the division.
