66639, Stepping down...
Posted by delrica, Mon Apr-02-07 07:14 AM
Peace fam.

This has been a rough year thus far and I don't feel that I can serve as your moderator in the capacity that I used to.

I log on at a minimal basis and that's usually when someone has asked for something to be deleted, or because I remember that Okayplayer.com is something I'm supposed to be actively participating in.

That's a disservice to myself and the rest of you.

Not sure if I'll be back at all, but I know that as of today, I will be stepping down as Freestyle's moderator.

Thanks for the fun times, the frustrating times and all that fall in between.

Peace.
66640, wow.

Honestly man. Peace peace peace and more peace to you. It's been an honor and a lesson in having someone of your poetic caliber be a mod here. I really wish you didn't feel like you had to step down. That's me being selfish though. Many blessings your way. Peace.

I understand how personal matters can impact performance... I hope things get better for you and yours soon.

Also...

Know that your presence as both peer and moderator is and was nothing short of inspirational. You were fair-minded, even-keeled, and never showed a shred of ego in your moderating duties. I always felt encouraged by you, and looked to your handling of conflict as setting the standard for mods.

Your successor will have big shoes to fill.
