Contemplation can be a wonderful thing.
When you have time to sit down and think over a lot of things which are happening around you and look for reasons why, a calm mind finally zeroes in on the answers. And once the pieces start to fall in, you realise. Sometimes that realisation hits you hard. It was one of those moments about 10-11 minutes ago. And instead of making a new thread for it, I just decided to bump this old thread - the best way I have of connecting with my online family here. I have turned my badge in. Thanks to all who voted for me during the elections, and an even bigger thanks to all the other Mods who trained and supported me through all these times since then. It wasn't exactly fun while it lasted ("endurable" would be a better choice of word for it), and I have no regrets.

Are you leaving or just not moderating anymore.
You leave and you die.

I hope that only means that V had relinquished his moderating responsibilities, and intends to continue to frequent the boards as a valuable and knowledgeable contributor.
However, if he is relinquishing his responsibilities due to the frustration of moderating an increasingly hostile board, he has only himself and the other moderation staff to blame. For too long, a kangaroo court has taken it upon themselves to vet and chastise new members, driving away potential assets to the forum. The moderation staff could have prevented this at any time, but chose not to, letting a handful of people make the determination of who would and who would not be accepted into the community. Enough is enough. I joined this board to discuss the horror genre, not to get involved in a juvenile popularity contest. And I'm not going anywhere. If the moderators don't step up and do their jobs, I expect there to be more animosity until the kangaroo court is disbanded.

Then go to the horror film section and talk about it. It's beneath the general column on the main index if you don't know. Plenty of people ignore general and only talk in the movies/games/books/art sections. Don't talk bs about our mods here, this is V's thread.

Maybe he just doesn't have the time to fulfill his responsibilities? He has a real life.

Regardless of what you do and how you choose to interact with the folks on this board, your remain my friend, V. Thanks for all you've done. Whatever happens, let's keep up a spirit of openness, civility, curiosity and fun and promote justice over antagonism and tolerance over douchery.
