Welcome Onboard To The New ubercharged Editors
There are a few extra people who can actually post stuff to the front page now. Up until recently we’ve had a bunch of contributors, but all their stuff goes into a big “Pending Review” bin when they post it until after I’ve reviewed it; removed all the critical things they say about me; added train god propaganda; and then it gets posted once I’m OK with it.
Which is all fine when I’m not busy, and I’m watching the site multiple times a day.
But when work picks up on me, and I’m not online as much, things tend to get backlogged a bit (as it has been recently).
So, I’ve promoted these guys to be able to do that as well:
Basically, I looked to see who’s been around for a while, writes decent posts that don’t need much revision, and who know how things work on ubercharged.
So Congrats guys, glad to have you help out
There is still an “admin” level above that for creating new logins etc, which is still just me being the bottleneck (so don’t hound those guys about getting on the site!). And yes, I know I’ve got a bunch of contributor applications piling up in my inbox (again), and yes, I will get around to responding to them soon. Promise!
(This has actually been in place for a few weeks, but I’ve been slack about getting around to telling everyone.)

So can the readers expect posts to be put up onto the site a good bit faster?

True fact; I only read Madlep’s e-mail about this about 15 days after he sent it.
Another true fact; I’ve done absolutely nothing with the power given to me so far.
YET ANOTHER true fact; I still have this warm and fuzzy feeling that I could completely screw over this site and edit everyone’s articles to simply praise me at any moment. Thanks, Madlep!

automated database backups FTW
The most anyone could do is annoy me for a day till I restore
