Hey guys. I'm sure a lot of you saw this coming, with my activity rapidly dwindling down. I saw a reflection of that in my feedback, and in general. I take into account everything, and after judging how much time I have to devote to the site AND the job of being an admin, I came to the conclusion I can't do both. I have entirely too many responsibilities when I come online, and as a result, no real chance to roleplay. When I joined this site, I was an idiot newb with little idea of how everything worked around here. I made mistakes and pissed people off, made friends, had many rp adventures and somehow made it to where I am today. As I think about the old days, I find myself missing them sorely. I miss having time to actually enjoy the site instead of being burdened by nothing but responsibility. I know a fair amount of you counted on me, and I feel awful if I'm letting you down. However, at the end of the day, this is a site to have fun in. The moment it becomes a job, is the moment it's ruined. I have a real job with extensive responsibilities, and I recently got a promotion which means even more responsibilities. SWRP also got blocked from my work place. Combined, this leaves me with the choice to be an admin or a member. I've said this countless times, but I'm a roleplayer before I'm an admin. This is exactly why I'm choosing to relinquish my role as an admin in favor of being able to spare time to jump into the story and be a member again.
I know I held onto the position longer than I should have, but I didn't want to let Brandon down. He truly needed the help, but now that things are more stable, I know it's the right time for me to finally step down. I'll definitely continue to be here whenever I can and help out. I want to be able to love this site again, like I used to when I was a regular member and when there was little expected of me. With my job draining me completely every day, it's hard to come home and have even more responsibilities waiting on a roleplaying forum. I really hope to be able to jump back into rp and have fun like I used to again.
It's been amazing working with the staff, and you guys are the best! Don't miss me too much :)
Brandon, don't cry.
