It's been a good run, but all good things must come to an end.
As you can see from the title, I'm stepping down from my position as a Calc Group Member. Frankly, this decision was motivated by a few factors, so please allow me to yap a little.
First of all, powerscaling just doesn't really hit for me anymore. To me, it's become more and more of an occasional hobby at best. Not really something I actually wanna put a ton of time into.
Second, I've honestly become more... jaded with the site. A lot of things have happened, or maybe even not happened, that just leave a really bad taste in my mouth. Things that I've fought against, time and time again, only for nothing to change. People who are still here or worse still, still staff members, despite having no business to be as such. Problematic individuals for one reason or another are just not actually dealt with. Rules that let people get away with too much and miss the point of a community by letting vile things run amok. Hell, even just people getting way too caught up in agendas and killing the site's purpose in broad daylight. At least, that's what I got out of it as time has gone on.
I could go on and on, but the point is, with all this stuff along with my own declining interest in powerscaling as a way to dedicate my time, I see no reason to stick around. And so, I won't.
That said, I've made a ton of great memories too, despite what I've said. I've gotten to know people that I talk with and plan to continue talking with outside the wiki. And to those people, I'm eternally grateful for letting me into your lives.
Also, I'd like to apologize to @DemonGodMitchAubin, for I was named his successor, but couldn't live up to the task.
And well... I honestly don't have much to say, so the yap session will end, as will my tenure as a VS Battles Wiki Staff Member. Will I return someday? Maybe, but probably not, if I had to guess. But closing the book on one chapter of my life is not a bad thing. You live and learn. It just means another chapter can begin, and with many plans for my future on the horizon, I plan to weave an even greater tale.
I'll see y'all around, be it tomorrow, or in many years. I'll be waiting, at the far edge of time.
