Michael
Have to admit, Haiko no longer bein who he's always been does seem a bit strange still since I always associated here and him as kinda bein the same thing lol  Have always associated you and here, too tho so you becoming the administrator seems like the natural choice. I remember bein confused bout something with CJ fairly soon after becoming a member here, looked around, spotted one of your posts, emailed you asking you about it and you were nice enough to explain it to me and made me feel better bout it. (umm am sure you wouldn't remember that lol but stood out in my mind at the time)
So... Congratulations 
Haiko
Think the gold color is a perfect match for ya and hope to still see you round here. Am not sure what you've got planned next but wish ya all the best with it. Hope you take some time to just enjoy yourself and rest up a bit before movin on to whatever it is you'll be doin next. |

I have seen many forums sold and after a few months become unrecognizable so I was a bit worried but with Michael now at the helm I am confident my fears can be put to rest

Yes, Haiko sure knows how to write an attention-getting line—talk about panic attack! I bet whatever he does will outrank ABW in Google. 
Michael, a very hearty congrats to you! Knowing the reins were transferred to your very capable hands turned the shock of cold water into a very pleasant warm one.

Congrats Michael. Good choice to Admin ABW as you have always been one of the best on ABW at great 'customer service' to merchants and affiliates.

I know that Michael is well respected on this forum. Congratulations Michael.
If Haiko isn't going to be the 'boss' then Michael is a pretty damn good alternative.

Congratulations all around!
To Haiko, for beginning his new endeavor and for leaving us all in good hands.
And to Michael, for stepping up and ensuring ABW will move forward with the same purpose.

Well on the upside Haiko I hope you'll have time for a long over due holiday now and travel around the world a bit and see if you can't find your way to Thailand for a week or 300
Its been an honour to have been a witness to your success with ABW!
Cheers

As much as I hate to see Haiko go, I'm very happy and relieved to know Michael will be filling his shoes. Feels way right to me! 
Congratulations Michael! This is a well-deserved honor. You have my (and I'm sure all of our) absolute support.
Haiko, ABW wouldn't be the same without you. Sure hope you'll remain active!

oh no.... yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiikes!!!!
I have to adjust to change.... lol!!! However, thinking logically....Haiko still gives some of the best hugs EVER and as long as he is still giving out hugs.. I can make peace with this... and Michael, we all know you are completely awesome... so it is a pleasure to see someone so deserving step up to the "Grand Poobah" position!

An excellent choice for the admin of Abestweb. I've known Michael for years and he has always been consistent in his role here as a moderator and in his efforts to help others. It is comforting to know that Abestweb is in such good hands and will continue be the great forum it has been since I joined back in 2002.

Hi Aiko,
It's hard to see you leaving. I think the new forum admin will do the same thing as you did. You made a great job! Keep that up, I wish you all the best with all your endeavors.

I'm late on this news, but happy to hear that Michael's the new Admin and that they didn't bring someone in from iNet...
Good luck in your new role, Michael. And Haiko, best of luck with whatever new venture you're taking on! Hope to see you around here still.
