(Re)tired


Creamy Arty

1,597 views

Alright, so I'm going to try and keep this simple, being a fan of brevity where possible with this sort of thing, but we'll just have to see what happens.

 

 

Following BronyCon, either the Wednesday or Friday after, I'm resigning from my position as an administrator. Before rumors begin floating around or the truth becomes mangled in a game of Telephone, let me make a few things clear here. I'm not resigning due to any conflicts with the staff or grudges with any of them individually or collectively; I like them. This has nothing to do with any particular member or group of members either. This decision is entirely arbitrary. A decision I've made with only my best interests in mind. Don't ask me for any more clarification than that. I've already discussed this with those I cared to.

 

The reason I'm bothering to post this is I don't want you to message me about any more concerns pertaining to the forum or staff. Those will go promptly into the trash. I'll wrap up what outstanding projects/requests I have before me now, which is the main reason I'm still listed as an admin. Ask someone else if you need something.

 

 

edit: Woo, 'bout damn time.

I'm very sorry to hear this. But dude, you did so much as an admin and moderator. You should be proud of all you accomplished! I hope you decide to stick around the forums, at least. :)

Well, this is quite the development. Will you still participate in running the friday night movies/episodes?

And I wish you luck in whatever endevour you become involved in next.

I'm sorry to hear that, Artemis, :(.  But hey, as Destiny mentioned, you should definitely be proud of what you have accomplished and I too hope you stay on the forums, :)

Arty, you have been a countless source of inspiration as a staff member. I don't know anyone who hasn't wanted to make you proud, both on staff and off staff. You are a fantastic friend to me and I can't wait to go shooting with you some day. You've earned this rest, so enjoy it man :)

So long as you don't drop off the face of earth. Otherwise I'll have to hunt you down :P

Even though I somewhat felt you didn't like me, I always had hella respect for you :D

 

You were my favorite admin before Aquila became an admin, and I do hope you stick around after you resign, man.

You were always the most hard-working admin. Sad to hear you're retiring, and I wish you the best of luck. :) I'll always cherish the one warning point you gave me.

I've already talked to you about this many times so I feel like a broken record making this comment, but that doesn't matter because what I'm saying is true.
 
I love you, man, as a friend. I truly do. You're like a brother to me. You were one of the people who responded to my introduction thread here. While we might not have really gotten to know each other until we were both in staff, our friendship is far more meaningful and important than being in the staff ever will be. The staff may have brought us together, but our friendship is what will keep us together. 
 
I am sad to see you step down from the staff, but in all honesty I find it difficult to be very sad at all because I know we're still going to talk all the time on Skype. You are who you are, and whether or not you're an admin honestly doesn't matter to me. You're Arty, and while you may be leaving the staff here you will always be my friend.

btw, if anyone still tries to send you any staff things, feel free to add me to the conversation and I'll take care of it.

You shouldn't keep doing something which you currently can't do. It won't be fair to either you or the other staff members, i reckon.

Artemis, it has been a pleasure working with you as a fellow staffer and will continue to be until you officially step down. I'm aware of some of what you're dealing with and I admire you for agreeing to stay on as admin through Bronycon.  Thanks for the hard work you've put into this site and for being a friend as well.  :)

You've been a model admin, your rest will be well deserved.

 

Now the question is... how long now until all of the people that were around while I was on staff are gone? ^^;

 

Seven left, once Arty is gone. :o

Yes. That's where my staff tenure began, and it's a separate entity from the forum these days. I'll be able to give it more attention than I have in a long time, something that's been on my mind a lot.

You've been an awesome Admin on these forums, you've done a lot. Hate to see you step down. Hope ya stick around the forums though.  :squee:

You are one of the admins I have had the most respect for so seeing you go is a bit dissapointing but understandable. We all have lives and you have done quite a bit, it is nice to know that it is nothing personal and good luck with everything.
