To put it simply: Good bye, and thanks for all the fish. It was nice associating with ya'll.

I will no longer be visiting these forums(or IRC chat) regularly(read: never) for unspecicified reasons. If you need to contact me for any reason feel free to do so via email, AIM, Yahoo, MSN, or IRC on network irc.rizon.net on channel #FFAAE nick ZigZagJoe.

Oyasumi.

Well, since more than just a few people are starting to ask what's going on with Joe, I'll explain it for everyone.

We decided to deop Joe on irc because of his attitude over the past few weeks, we just felt it was not representative of what a good op should be. (No offense to you Joe, if you happen to be reading this). He's not a bad person, just we have been getting too many complaints and have seen too many conversations turned sour when Joe reacted the wrong way to a joke which wasn't intended to offend him at all. We just felt this sort of behavior was unfit for a person who people look up as an operator.

If you are unclear about any of this, ask any of us and we can clarify what we believe constituted a de-op.

Anyway, we reached a decision last night regarding this behavior, and we felt that it would be in the community's best interests to deop Joe. This was by no means any sort of personal vendetta against Joe, I've worked with Joe on several projects related to OP2.

However, we had no plans to drive him from the community at all. His decision to leave was purely his own choice. If he wants to come back at any time, he is completely welcome to come back and participate in the community.

Anyway, it's been great having Joe around and hopefully we'll see him come back at some point.

Yeah, there could be other reasons as well.
From what I see he seems to have other stuff going on in his life..

If that's the case with anyone, if they have other stuff they need to deal with that first. I don't think anyone's life should revolve around OPU (or any place on the internet, for that matter).

Of course we'd like to see someone stay but if they have other, more important stuff going on in their life, internet activities should probably take a back seat.

Deleted both spirit's post and levi's post because:

1- lev's post was a bit insulting
2- spirit's post was in reference to lev's post, saying how it was insulting
