From Sodor Island Forums
Ryan is the forum's second Administrator, taking over from Fat Hatt officially earlier in 2006.
RYAN'S HISTORY AS A SiF MEMBER
Ryan first registered with SiF on the 5/4/03 when the board was in it's first official premises of Bboy.com, and although not a founding member, is well known as one of the few early SiF members who still frequent the board.
As well as being the current Administrator, Ryan is also the longest serving active staff member on the board, having begun his tenure in September 2003, when he was part of the first SiF staff intake to appoint moderators. Throughout this time, he has been involved with the Extended Railway Series evaluations prior to the appointment of an official committee, as well as the general running of the board.
He is a keen writer and high on creativity. He has contributed a great deal of volumes to the Extended Railway Series library; as well as being the first official Independent Series writer with his series (now co-written with Christopher Signore) The Laggan Railway, as well as a number of short fan-fiction and parody pieces. As well as this, Ryan has been known to play several roles within Sodor Island's extensive media library, as well as writing a number of scripts for the Sodor Studios redubbing group.
