I have battled hard to get the right server to keep this place open, worked out with Megaman how to raise money so that no-one has to dip into his own pocket to feed it, designed the place initially myself and then with his help, finally I can't run it without him.
Now, just so that you understand, I KNOW I cannot win. I am fully aware that whatever I decide to do, some fool will take the credit for it because he has persuaded me by his actions to "act" in some manner.
I can tell you, the idiots who want to take some sort of control here that my attitude is very simply "Screw you all!" I will sweep you out of here so fast you won't even realise it has happened if I need to, whoever you are.
This is NOT a public service. This is something that I provided for you to create a community. And now we have Lord of the Flies. Except you have forgotten who has the conch.
Get with the program! Get over yourselves, or, quite simply, GET OUT!
Someone said to me "Don't blame the entire community!" Well, I never have. But those who have taken blame to themselves when none was appropriate have only themselves to blame. Those of you who are tearing this apart? You know damned well who you are. Shape up or ship out. And do it NOW!
