Stepping Down.

[Lamsey]

After some consideration I have decided to step down as a moderator on the KL Board.

Over the past few months, I have found that I just haven't been enjoying coming here at all. There is a lot of sniping, etc. that comes with the job and I accept that, but recently some fairly unpleasant stuff has been going on which severely limits the enjoyment I get from coming here - the various details are well documented around the board, so I'm not going to discuss them here.

As a result, I think it is best that I step down and become a normal member again. I have a lot of commitments to my time just now (University, part-time work, hobbies, social life, etc) and to be frank I need to cut something out. As I'm not at all enjoying moderation of this board, I feel it's the logical choice to step down.

I'll still be coming here as a member, (this isn't one of these melodramatic "I'm leaving the board because you're all horrible to me" posts ;) ), but to be honest being a moderator here just isn't for me any more, so I'm going back to yellow stars now - which 7thElement is hopefully sorting out just now.

Cheers,

Lamsey

u were a cool mod ,sorry your stepping down but it's good to get a change :) see yah when yah post


buju

peace

[Agrajag]

Well done, you have looked at your life and made a positive decision about it. You need to make changes and have the courage to do so and to explain your reasons for those changes. Few people have the self-awareness to do what you are doing. I hope to get to know you better as you stay here as a regular member. In my opinion you will enjoy yourself more, being free just to post where and what you want. Without the responsibility of being a mod.

*looks up at ceiling* "oh please god no..."

yeah lamsey doesn't make sense u get voted best mod and stepping down. but its good thatt you're acknowledging the need for more time in what matters, real life. :)

[Lilmiss]

I'd just like to say, you made a good moderator and seemed reasonably fair and just. If doing it is holding you back from personal things, and not giving you pleasure anymore, its seems like a sensible move.
Glad to hear you're sticking around though. :)

Now clench you teeth, and take a beating like the next person.

For me you will stay the nice guy Lamsey - with your "Hahaha... here is some Non
Jovi..." - Test on your show ;) That was sooo funnny ;)

And night sessions continue...

Edited: Can I please get a Moderator - I want to desperately try to help
moderating here, please ;) You are laughing, but I am offering to help you,
seriously. Oh, you sad human - you surely thinking I am crazy aren&#39;t you, but
I mean it seriously&#33;

[Livy]

Lamsey is a forum star, can i be one too. :D

Oh great&#33; :( Now you can have your topics closed and/or deleted like everyone else here, and at the same time you can browse around the senseless genital and bodily function topics that keep popping up here.

[clocker]

Cool&#33;
Does this mean that I don&#39;t HAVE to get out of your way in the Folding rankings?

[I.am]

Lamsey, that sure is a wise decision. If there was any good time then this was it. :)

Glad you will be still among us&#33; Thanks for everything&#33; :)

Btw, you aint getting any yellow stars, just get ForumStar :lol:

[Cheese]

It&#39;s a real shame to see you step down, you&#39;ve always done a sterling job here. :)

It&#39;s great that you will still be hanging around, I think I still owe you a pack of cheesy nik-naks and a can of iron-bru. :lol:

[FuNkY CaPrIcOrN]

;) The only thing I have to say is the MOD Team is losing one of the best they had.Now I have to watch them all with both my Eyes to make sure they can handle it without him. :D

[Darth Sushi]

Say it isn&#39;t so&#33; :( But at least you&#39;ll still be around. ;)

[oldmancan]

Lamsey, so much goes on that regular members don&#39;t realize, I&#39;m sure. I for one have no idea what you (all the mods) have put up with. A shame for us all that you made the decision to step down.

Thanks for all the effort. Personally, I feel I had more interaction with you before you became a mod. I certainly appreciated all the help that you provided, it&#39;s good to have someone knowledgeable that you trust. I look forward to seeing more posts from you in the future.

Best Regards

[Evil Gemini]

:beerchug:

You were a good mod.

Atleast now you dont have to worry about modding and can just sit back and watch the ride :D

[[B][O][T]]

Sad to see You step down Lamsey :(

[Rip The Jacker]

Sad to see you quit Lamsey. :(

Take care,
Jack

[VaVaVoom]

Thanks a million for everything, Lamsey.

[UKMan]

You have your reasons Lamsey and they should be respected of course. Not that i allways agreed with you, but thanks for putting up with a LOT of crap from most peeps here - including moi a couple of times - take care with yourself and good luck with everything. B)

Peace

So
after winning the who&#39;s the friendliest Mod poll
you still feel spite????? :blink:

[thewizeard]

You are making a wrong decision, in my opinion Lamsey.

[Ella]

I respect your decision, Lamsey, and have always found you the fairest, most rational and expressive mod. Good luck with life&#39;s ventures.

[Spider_dude]

i am truely upset you have decided to quit.

Sorry to see you stepping down (up?) from your position, but, as you&#39;ve said you&#39;re staying, we shant be deprived of the most important thing of all: Your continued presence here. ;)

Spend your time wisely, and see you on the board, sir. :)

[DanB]

I&#39;m sorry to see you step down Lamsey. Kinda makes sense though if you have other more important things to do though

[NightStalker]

It&#39;s sad to you step down, however, I support your statement fully.

In fugley&#39;s opinion the kid did ok - pretty even and measured in his judgements, generally for such a young cock sparrow.

But it&#39;s cool if Mr Lam can&#39;t be assed with hassle&#33;



Vote fugley&#33;&#33; - he will always contemplate and consider his position fully before producing his hypoprosfecies&#33;&#33;

[4th gen]

You shocked me quite a bit when you told me this Lamsey. I never saw it coming at all. Anyway, thanks for the time you put in on the board, keeping the peace and being one of the most knowledgable members here. I might not always have agreed with you or your decisions but it was good fun along the way.
Just remember though, stepping down as mod won&#39;t affect your truly pish pool skills :rolleyes:
