From Consul Kir Taldrya Katarn: Ben is an invaluable asset to Clan Taldryan, and more specifically House Dinaari. His dedication, loyalty, and work ethic go above and beyond. He has a bright future in Clan Taldryan and the Brotherhood. I'll leave the more specific details to his Quaestor, I just wanted to add a few comments as well. Congratulations Ben, you deserve it!

From Quaestor Shadow Taldrya: For the better part of 8 months Ben has served under me as Aedile to House Dinaari and has been doing an amazing job since day one. I think the first thing I ever asked of him was to learn PHP so he can add pages and features to the Dinaari site and he did it right away. He worked his ass off so we could have one of the most comprehensive websites in the entire DB.

On the site he has coded be a number of informational pages and fictional pages. Most notibly would be the Dinaari History and Code and the IRC Step-by-Step outline, which has been a huge help for new recruits from Taldryan. He also created images for the step-by-step outline and updates the sites menu and background images. All of which is helpful in keeping new APPs and getting them the information they need quickly and cleanly.

Unlike myself, Ben has kept up his weekly reports to keep the House informed of the workings of myself, the clan and the rest of the DB. Without his weekly reports most people wouldn't have a clue as I just recently started to do reports again... (took a 6 month break :P) Just the other day he informed me that as a change of pace once every month or so he'll even do MS Paint reports, and Ben is legendary for his MS Paint skills - so I can't wait to see what he comes up with for that.

IRC is probably my favorite tool for communicating with the rest of the DB and I can always find Ben online waiting to talk to me about new ideas or new competitions or even for games of Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy. He never really changes to "away" but if he's around there's always a way to get his attention for something. I even let him take on the new APPs for talking as I both scare and hate new people... too annoying for me :P

All this and more is what Ben does as Aedile of Dinaari and I can't think of any Aedile who has done more or done it as well. Ben more than deserves this award and my thanks for 8 months of outstanding service. Thank you again, Ben, and Merry Christmas.
