Heh, about 4 long stressful years eh? There's something I've never gotten with you though and it's this criticism of which you speak of. It's not your main reason but it keeps being brought up and I don't understand exactly why it has affected you to such extravagance. I still don't know the details behind it but someone of your virtues and amiableness, I expected a toughened heart to the voice of hatred and an enlightened mind to the illusions of life, atleast without a breaking point. You enjoy what you do, you have true passion in keeping the VCMP community on a whole running and you have good and positive critics to praise. Don't "praise" the bad criticism by bringing up all that old shit, discouraging yourself not to go on. Praise the
honest good criticism and continue to do what you love. When you're happy with yourself with what you did, no matter if you don't even get appreciated, you can still smile inside that "I did all that and Im proud to contribute to the public".
So you retiring because of balancing time. Well that is a tragedy, you built this community for so long, you've left a big impression on us all, you've made us who we are today as Brian implied. I wish you all the best in your studies but no goodbye for you. We'll catch you later
