yeah, the life stuff has gotten hectic and stressful but like, not in a bad way. id rather not talk about specifics but it just means that i have a lot less free time than when i signed up for it.

rather than become absentee or try to push through it and burn out, i stepped away, exactly for the reason you say. mods and admins changing out should be boring and id counselled mods that if they don't have time or feel like they're burning out they should step away, and who would I be if I didn't take my own advice?

sorry to disappoint everyone that there's not more to this than boring nonforums stuff.



Azathoth posted:

I'm not sure what more there is to say. There's no behind the scenes forums drama behind it, if that's what you mean. I've just had a lot of life stuff happen since I became a mod/admin and forums stuff was competing for time with RL stuff. Basically I had to make a choice between either offline poo poo or forums poo poo, and I chose offline poo poo.

And so rather than trying to burn the candle at both ends and burn out, I took a step back and made the conscious decision to deprive everyone here of what would have been a spectacular meltdown. I wish I had the time to do this and offline poo poo, because I really did enjoy my time overall as a mod and admin, but that's just not in the cards.

I've only posted when people start speculating about there being something more than what I've said, as I'd prefer to not have dumb rumors floating around about me.


You did it! You did a fuckin forums tour of duty. You were able to keep both your legs. No meltdown either congratulations.
