Resignation -
This has been a great forum for me to post on and cut my teeth on as a moderator. I really enjoyed meeting many of you at the gathering we had on Feb. 28th at the Rose Garden. I am resigning as a moderator here and I doubt I will post here very often, who knows about elsewhere? I am simply not sure. There is a good group of people that run this site but we have one resounding difference that I can't get past - the issue of minors moderating.

Please understand this is nothing personal against L4L - he is a good kid. I just do not think minors should moderate; they don’t use good judgment on a consistent basis and other moderators end up cleaning up the mess the make. I simply don’t have time to clean up after anyone but my own child and myself. That is a big enough job already.

Best of luck to all of you.
Blazer Outsider


FORK! I am DONE!

Obviously, I wish you'd reconsider and wait to talk to the admin that is in charge of moderators.

I'm sure a workable solution can be had.

Dan

consider this my "resignation" too. And unlike BO, I'm not gonna sugar coat it.

It IS because a minor is a Mod. It IS because he left because he said he didn't want people to think he needed to be in control (only to RETURN)..it IS because he is behind the exodus. It IS because he was once banned from BBB.net, it IS because he recently had his Moderator powers removed, and now is a Mod again.

You ask Schilly, and you can ask BO, I said that within a week he'd be a Mod again.

so good riddance.

I also will be stepping down as a moderator. It really has been fun and I will miss you all (some I know I will see elsewhere). Without going into details and pointing too many fingers I will echo BlazerOutsiders sentiments, as she really summed it up best.

Again thanks.

Retro - stay in touch via e-mail and please still post the article about the party we had Feb. 28th. If there is anything you need from me to help with that, let me know.

Folks I am not trying to FLAME out here. That is not the intent at all and I do encourage you all to post away!

Stay in touch...

HOWIE is worried that the ship might have a hole in it!

I didn't even realize that there was a problem. Blazer Outsider and Hap Shaughnessy please reconsider. I need someone to keep in in line when I want to trade Wells for Stackhouse!

amazing that one person can cause so much drama , but i agree im over all that BS of quitting mod then coming back , losing it getting it back blah blah pity though , it was going so well. i think its obvious someone needs to quit being a mod and earn some respect instead.

I would to address this in a short post:

For those of you that do not like me, tell me here. I have only been wanting to help this community as best as I can, but it does seem that there are a couple people here that do not want me moderating for whatever reason(s) they have.

Hap Shaughnessy is bitter at me and will not even try to talk to me about this. He thinks that I am controlling, yet all that I did was merge his thread to the game thread a little while ago. All he posted was, 'god, i hate the suns', so I moved it to the game thread where it belongs and notified him in a private message. He must not like someone younger than him correcting him, or else he wouldn't have a problem with me.

If the general consensus here is for me to not moderate, I will step down. I have no problem with that. But to accuse me of being power-hungry is absolutely crazy.

Like I mentioned before, let's get things out in the open. Whoever does not like me, or my moderating, please tell me here.

I only want to help this community, but it seems as if I am tearing it apart.

L4L - this is not about liking you. I like you. I know you care about this place. Everyone does. You are missing the point, my friend. And the issues with Hap - well I don't even think it is appropriate to go into here but, hey, I am not editing a thing.

I hear it is smoother to take the high road!

I do understand your reasons. You are leaving because there are underaged people here working as moderators. I know you aren't leaving just because of me, you've made that clear.

I do wish the best for you in whatever you decide to do.

id like to know how many times u have lost mod status and regained it?
i think twice since we been here ?
its not about desire to do the right thing, nobody doubts u have heart - but its obvious something is very wrong here.
