No, you shouldn't go. You're great! Now, maybe the answer is letting go of the moderator duties? Its a tough job, and you wind up being the target of criticism (both constructive and not). Overall, you've done a fantastic job of it, but I understand if you're tired of it.

So my advice is, retire the mod duties, take a vacation, and then come back to your Org family. You are loved, as is obvious by the repsonses you've gotten on here. We've already lost way too many good people.

I don't think you should leave. You are very popular here and seem like a great person. You're knowledge of old school would be greatly missed not to mention all the fantastic pictures. Maybe you should consider limiting yourself to a couple of hours a week (that's what I do) but don't leave.

Why would you go, Dansa? Because you feel that it's time, because you've been here too long, because you want to pursue other interests, etc?

In my experience, it's hard to give up on the org. Falling away from it seems to be a natural process. You find the posts/people less amusing than you used to, you find something else to fill up your time, and so on and so forth...

Whatever decision you make, I hope it brings you peace. And if you do go, like everyone else is saying, rest assured you will be deeply and sorely missed...
I mean, like, where is the sun?

A break is always good.

Dej, Im in total agreement with Supes... u 'cant spin this nasty joint' - it would simply not be the same without ya. Sure, things would go on...but it WOULD NOT be the same.

However, u have your own life outside of this wonderful, hilarious, magical, mysterious, joy-fantastic, fucked-up place called the org - and I respect u if u wanna go grab it. Take a break girl, lawd knows u deserve it. U should take the whole summer off from here, and go do Dansa stuff!

We loves u chile!

Deja, nobody said you had to come here everyday. lol.

Sure, take a break, but don't leave. You are a cool chick and give us something to giggle at every now and again. We need as many old school orgers as we can. The newbies are taking over. shake

So, stay in the family. You know we love you.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

hi, dahlings! grouphug

ya'll are probably wonderin where the hell i've been for the past few days--my internet got shut off cuz i was late payin the bill. i got the chit turned back on today, so i'm fine now. biggrin anyway, while i was without any 'net i spent much of my time at home watchin dvds, sleepin and thinkin about a lotta things. one of the things that crossed my mind is that i've been a member of the org for 5 years now.

eek 5 friggin years, yo. that's a helluva long time. eek

and i've been thinkin about...retiring from the org. yes, that's right--hangin up my badge, my pix, all my sexxy org banners n'all that. i don't spend as much time here as i used to--i'm usually busy workin on graphics for my livejournal stuff, doodling, hoppin on the bus to go somewhere or watchin some of my dvds.


and no, i ain't leaving yet...i still gotta go and think if i should go and truly retire from this place. if i did, i'd seriously miss you guys (yeah chico, even you rolleyes). if i do wind up retiring from org-dom i'd leave my account up (don't want no stankin newbies to steal my name n'shit shake) and i'd pop up on occasion to check the news n'stuff...but bein here almost everyday has worn this Dansa out.

....sooooo, whatcha think? should i retire? and if i do, will you visit me in the orgers' retirement home? you'll know where i am, i'll be in the room with the stereo on..."head" will be on full-blast, of course. mr.green




But you would hook me up with the name, right? You shouldn't retire you are one of the first people that I saw on this board. Besides you have the dopest name around, kick name

You should not go. You are one of the bright spots on here. In an era of mods havin serious issues as to how they moderate. It was nice to see you stay level headed after all the shit you have been put through. People tend to forget how you were talked about on quaidbowl and how you never carried a grudge. If it were me i would have bombed on em. Anyways if you do leave take care. The wizard always got a li'l magic for ya.
