Hey, a quick heads up. I recently discovered that the staff list hasn't been updated in ages. You can see it here.

animenewsnetwork.com/staff.php

For example, it doesn't list any of the newest staff such as Gabriella Ekens, Nick Creamer, or Rose Bridges, says Bamboo Dong still writes Shelf Life, lists Carl Kimlinger in current staff, doesn't have Jacob Chapman's updated name, and so on.

Not sure if here or the Technical section is the best place to post this, but I figured I'd let you know.

As well as the current bunch of moderators.

BTW, do you hail from Oz, Mad_Scientist? Your link is to the .au version.

No, I'm from the US, and I have no idea why it would be linking to the AU version, as it doesn't do that for me. Maybe it automatically changes it depending on location? So since you're from OZ, it appends an AU somewhere? Because looking at the link, it just shows me a .com/staff url.

It would also be nice if we could get more forum names attached to staff members. Not all staff have titles that identify them as ANN staff, and especially for the reviewers, it's nice to know who they are when they reply in-thread.

Thanks for the headsup guys! We need several contributors added to the ranks and several bios need updating. We'll get this fixed up this week.

You can hover on the avatars in the staff list to find out the forum name.

Cool, I never knew you could do that!

Just realized my last name needs updated on there too, when anyone gets a chance.

Jake's profile had the name updated but still uses "she/her" all over the place.
