Doesn't work, even though he currently is still a game moderator. No returning to previous safe points, my dear Herp. It is in the past now.

That said, I'm leaving moderation. It's been a nice, exact four years. But lately I had some RL hickups, and the motivation is not there anymore (and neither is the time). So from what was essentially a break (from especially Game Moderating), I now quit. Maybe I'll find something else to do on NS, maybe not. We'll see. I don't even know myself. But those feeder regions look very interesting :P

I always liked to be able to make my own conscious choices. And this seems like a good moment for me (though such things are probably never a good moment for others). But that should not distract in the end. Rather this way than completely burned out. Maybe in a few years, things change in my life, I have not burned my bridges :)

Do not start chanting "Four more years! Four more years!". This is NS Moderation, not the US Presidency :P

Sorry to hear this. You've done well, and I hope you'll go back to the mod team someday.
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’

As someone from Europe, I have a bit of an affinity with the European mods. There aren't many of them (Sedge, OT, Arch, CG, you and maybe Kat). It's sad to lose someone from this small group. You'll be missed - it's just so baaaad to see you go.

Thanks for your service, Blaat.

If you have the time, swing by the Restaurant. We'll hook you up with some RP to give you a breath of fresh air ;)

There's nothing like a bit of addiction to keep people around.

And if you feel the serious need for a break- well, remember our doors are always open. Take a month or three to tend to RL, and maybe we'll see you on the other side :)
