Modpost - Something of an explanation.
Hey there, guys.
First off, let me start by saying that no one is in trouble, and I'm not here to have a yell at the comm as a whole. I know I haven't been around very much, for a very long time; now that I think I know what's going on, I imagine an explanation is owed as to why.
Those who know me on a personal level know that my health has always been terrible; my respiratory system has been weak since I was a kid, and I was recently diagnosed with something that's going to be life-threatening if it turns out to not be treatable. I'm currently being treated now; however, the standard course of drugs is not doing anything, as far as the doctors can tell, outside of affecting my mental state and altering my behavior in ways that I don't like. As of this week, they've stepped up my treatment; mentally, this is not going very well, and emotionally I'm pretty much a complete basket case right now.
Physically speaking, I am not well. Mentally speaking, I am not well.
I'm not saying that I'm leaving the community; I still enjoy playing with all of you, and I want to continue to do so. However, I do want to make it clear that I am currently seeking out potential replacements for myself as a mod. I don't think I can continue running this community in the state I'm in right now, and it's unfair to continue to claim ownership to something that I do not have the resources, mental or physical, to run properly.
I will not be stepping down until a suitable replacement is found and I've helped them to settle in as best I can, but I do want to let you know that such a time is coming when I will no longer be a mod here.
I apologize for all the silence, and everything I have failed to do; I likely won't be around much for the next little while, but know that I do love you guys and I really appreciate everything you've done for me just by being here.
