  1. I wanted to formally make this post announcing that I will be stepping down as Administrator of the Moderation Team. At this point in time I no longer feel like I can effectively hold this position and drive the server in a positive direction. Once my successor is chosen I will be handing over the reigns. When I first came back to the server, I was immediately filled with nostalgia and excited for all that I had missed and all the possibilities that I could see before me. I got to talk to friends that I had not spoken in over 8 years and I really enjoyed myself. When I came across my least favorite aspect of the server, locked doors, I decided to rejoin Moderation, a team I had not been a part of since I was swiftly removed from Global Moderator in 2011 for building a casino out of world edit. In that time there were many areas of the server I found myself passionate to work on. I built systems which I feel greatly improved how moderation functioned and tried to set precedents of transparency and open communication between the team and the community. That being said, as I climbed from Moderator, to Management to Administrator I became more and more disconnected from the community and the passion I once had. I had bit off more than I could chew and found myself with a hand in seemingly every team. I didn’t have strong enough support systems in place, both on Administration and on the team. At the end of the day, this was my fault and could have been easily prevented if I had asked for more help and not taken so much responsibility on, but at the end of the day I was not up for the task. While I feel like I may have had a strong start, at this point in time I feel like the longer I stay on as Administrator, I am contributing to a stagnation we have seen time and time again on staff. I have fallen short on my duties, often leaving players on read for days at a time, failing to be more active in my communication and my transparency with players which was one of my driving passions behind joining Management and Administration. I have also failed the community in making this a safe place for everyone who comes to the server. While I have improved my efforts over the past two months to more quickly handle reports over safety concerns, this does not excuse the fact that there were times where I did not make decisions quick enough or stalled on reports and I apologize for anyone who may have been hurt by these inactions or indecisiveness. In the past three months I began playing on an alt account, and I saw many areas of the server that needed improvement. I got to experience the server through a new player's perspective but that experience made me realize that I am not the right person for the job. The server, and Moderation needs an administrator with fresh eyes, passion and a desire to make strong changes. Stagnation is a constant threat for Administrators and the server and it's time for me to take a step back and allow changes to be made. Now comes the question of what comes next, I plan to stay on the team and guide the transition process for bringing on a new Moderation Administrator. To the best of my abilities carry out the duties of this role until my successor is chosen. I don’t want to leave the server, but I feel like after almost two full years I need to take my first real break. I will be stepping down from Moderation once my replacement is picked and then focus more on content creation, finally finishing the website update and overall pushing to improve advertising, new player outreach and player retention, on the Community team if they will still have me. I still have a lot of love for this server, but I believe this is the best step for myself personally, for the moderation team, and the server as a whole. Once a new Admin is chosen, I will be returning to my role as Chairmen of the Ex-GM Team. Its been fun. - BasketWeaver/Anore
