I'm stepping down from my staff position as global moderator, for a few reasons.

For starters, I'm just...I'm obviously not meant to be a mod. None of you are happy with me, and I'm sick of hearing the bull.
It's stressful on me. I need to act "staff appropriate" and if not I'm yelled at. Too bad, that's me. If you don't like it then shut up. I can't handle that right now. It's too much.
None of you even like me as staff. It's apparent.
I don't like any of the admins apart from Robin and Cyber. Ha, ha, HA.
A big part of this is I just don't feel like putting up with all of the stupidity and idiocy of most of the members here.

My life is way too stressed right now. And I'm already making bad decisions. To be honest with you guys, I love all(mostly) of you guys, and I love my staff position and helping everyone out. But I just can't handle the stress and everything anymore. I hope you guys will hold that special spot for me whenever I feel like coming back(who knows...).

I've been thinking this over for a while, along with...this...
I'm thinking of leaving. How long, I don't know. But I kind of think most of you would be better off without me...
(^that bit probably won't happen. Acidmods is like a drug, you're hooked and it's a

to break.)

why dont

well its up to you i guess no one can really change your mind

All I am going to say is that it's your decision. You was harsh but fair, but occasionaly you went too far withharsh bit.

Please don't leave AM all together though. You are a great help to the whole of the site. And if you do you WILL be missed.

Peace out,

Josh (H-Sauce)

Man don't leave... Sometimes you might overeact, but everybody does... You can step down from your staff position if you really find it too stressful, but definitely don't leave...

buickgnx · « **Reply #4 on:** December 23, 2008, 01:20:28 PM »

I've looked up o you the whole time I've been here. i would cry if you left us. plz don't leave

We may not talk, and I may somehow get on your nerves (I'm not sure), but I really like your presence here at AM. You have helped many.
I understand the reasons for you stepping down. I don't blame you.

Jumbo · « **Reply #6 on:** December 23, 2008, 01:25:30 PM »

Wait a sec, Your leaving AM?!?
No way!

I dont get why anyone would say

to you bud, You are an amazing moderator, No matter what people say.

Everytime I look to see whos on you are there, most active Mod here

I understand, Its a responsibility that can be tough, but honestly you got good at it. And Ive never had anything against you.
It is your decision to step down from mod but don't leave because a couple kids like to talk

.

Happy Holidays

Damn, forgot the in b4 bawwfest...

Yeah. I'm an awesome mod, I know. But whatever.
And no I was it probably wouldn't happen and I was only thinking about it, Jumbo.

DarkShot · « **Reply #9 on:** December 23, 2008, 01:37:24 PM »

Dude you better stay..

Theres always that mod who works hard and just does what they're supposed to.

Fact is that you earned your mod position and done an awesome job.

It is up to you entirely, but why leave something you worked for?

yes, this is true...
And despite what you percieve people to think of you, kicks, he's right you will be missed should any haietus be permanent...

PspKicks316 · « **Reply #11 on:** December 23, 2008, 02:08:28 PM »

I've already asked Robin(when I posted this) to demote me.

Noah, what's haietus mean? Hahaha, you finally stumped me man.

I'll stay as a mod, but take it up with Robin. Get the admins to loosen those tight ropes they've got on me, and I'll have no problem staying. It'll take away the stress they pile onto my back. That's the main reason I asked to be demoted, because of the stress they put on me(and mostly me).

Well, it look like there's nothing we can do to keep you on the staff, but I think that if you decide to join the staff again I'm sure we can put you back on if you want in the future...

I know. That's why I had no problem with this. Robin would take me back whenever, cuz I'm an awesome mod. Haha.

Not to sound like a ass, but I can't say I ever really paid attention, to anyone else while I was on the staff, sure I sort of followed the rules (LOL), but for the most part I just let everyone do what they do, so I don't know if you were a good mod or not, but I can say this the staff jobs can be very stressful. Everyone should think of it like this: The staff (Mods, Admin, Local, what-have-you) are around in order to keep things working, for the most part smoothly. The job can be very un-stressful when things do work, but very very stressful when they don't. The easiest way we can all help our staff is quit simple, first follow the rules (cept for me of course... LOL JK), the rest should be common sense (of course if common sense were common everyone would have it....), use search, respect others... The list goes on and on, but I don't have time, I guess what I'm trying to say is think before you say/type, do, or leap... That'll make it easier for the staff.

Don't leave man...I don't think we know each other really well. But every time I've been on. Especially in the PSP section you were helping out giving advice and answering questions. You may see it as nothing. But me and other modders who are below your rank, really appreciate it.

that's not fair man, and kinda insensitive.

kicks, you were without a doubt one of the best mods in the place. seriously, you always get the job done, you wont take no for an answer, and if anyone ever steps out of line, you call them on it quick snap. that's the kind of mod i like, you may get stressed from time to time and vent it on here, but like you said, your life is stressful atm, so we're not blaming you at all.

to kicks!
3 cheers!

And, damnit, I love how the biggest stress in my life just went away today...the day after I stepped down..

Oh well, I'll be back in a couple of months haha

If moderating a website is a major "stress" in your life, then good luck once you aren't living under your parents roof anymore...

I didn't say it was a major stress. It's stressful though. Not so much the job, but the people.

That's the beauty of the internet, silence is just a few clicks away, or in some cases extremely loud but favored music

Syugo · « **Reply #37 on:** December 25, 2008, 08:48:45 PM »

Why is everyone on AM a gigantic drama queen? man every month there's got to be one guy who makes a thread about leaving. If you really want to f

ing leave then just step down and leave, don't make a such a big fuss about it. Also, I better not f :censored:ing see you in like 2 months saying "Hey guys I came back

" like an enormus d :censored:che.

Overall what happens in this type of thread:
Some say "no don't do it" sincerely, and some you can tell are just trying to be nice. Then people who don't particularly like the person post giving hints to the fact.

Another thing, theres no way the internet can be "stressful". You don't have to confront anything you dont want too, theres an X on the top right (or left if your a macuser).

Oh and one more for the money: You were a medicore mod that was way to harsh, formal, and a deteriant for AM to get new members. Im kinda glad someone like Alien or Luke becoming a mod (even though there are more than enough as it is)

/rant

dslitemodder: Do NOT use religious names like that. I will not warn you again.

I just wanted to say this since I was gone at my grandparents house with no internet for the holidays.

Kicks please don't leave, of all the people I don't want to leave this site (besides cyber) your the number 1 person I want to stay. You always gave that unique feedback when somebody needed help, and kept the noobs in place. Please don't go as acidmods needs you, not as a mod but as a friend (but you can still be a mod if you want

)
