Retiring from combat duty

It's always a shame to see a good ship retire, even if it is a yankee one(jk). Anyways jokes aside, you'll be missed as a moderator Monitor. You did a damn good job as one, but with that being said it'll be nice to still see you around NS.

Aww, I see that you got the IE Role and Color.

Still, all the best to whatever you do, Monitor! You have always been a great Mod, and it will be no surprise that you will be a great Issue Editor as well! ^^

When did that change? It was red like an hour ago.

Midnight UK time I reckon.

You did a darn good job as a mod. I wish you luck in your issue writing.

You're safely ensconced in NS Sport now, Monitor. There is no total escape from here on in.

Of course the Sherpas will stick around, even if they are totally tanking this World Cup because I didn't RP.

I've been doing some thinking about how I spend my time on NS, and I've decided that I'm ready to retire from my post as a moderator. There's a certain amount of conflict inherent in modding, and I want to be able to enjoy NS as a player without that negativity.

I edited a few issues during my time as a mod, and I hope to edit more in the future, so I'm requesting a transfer to issues editor rather than completely leaving the site staff.

You were one of the good ones Monitor. Your even keel in Moderation matters will be missed. I appreciate your contributions to keeping this site an enjoyable place, and I'm glad to see you'll still be sticking around.

I wish you all the best.

You're actually someone I had on my radar as a long-term prospect if we ever needed more NSG mods when you weren't too busy with RL.

We will remember you USS Monitor. Have fun with the issues.

To be fair, he did get the Modhood for 13 seconds.

I enjoyed your presence. I am happy to hear you'll still be around.

Thank you for your service Monitor. You made NS a better place.

...Except for that one time you gave us Ebola.

Good luck!
May the waves not be too high for you...

The waves don't tend to be too bad in dry dock.

May you have a long career as a museum ship Monitor.

Godspeed. May the seas be fair and the winds be gentle. I wish you the best.

Your service to NationStates will not be forgotten. :salute:

You've been a credit to the site and the mod team, Monitor. Hope your retirement doesn't leave you too bored

They needn't worry, they're in good company.
