Fuzzy...in #63 is quite correct.
He speaks from inside knowledge of 'the other side' - just exactly how and what the Admins and Mods do/say about all facets of the site and its community.
There IS no agenda....and none of us can even pilot the black helicopters you see in the sky.
We have one role....and that is to maintain and promote the site and its community [that might have conjunctions but it is still just one thing]. Part of that is keeping a watchful eye on any potential over exuberance on the part of one or another of its/our members. We try to nip flames in the bud.
The issue with public actions such as 'departures' is there will always be public speculation as to a cause, which is almost always wrong. Communications are continued in private, particularly when others may be getting the wrong end of the stick and voicing such and thus ADDING to the 'conspiracy theorem'.
The most common reason for people to move on and/or stop skinning is that life is transient...and people's interests change.
Is Fuzzy Logic less devoted to the skinning community because he resigned from Modding? No. He, like several others is simply burnt out from coping with some of the silliness shown by people...silliness we are often obliged to respond to?
Of course, I've been doing 'this' the longest....and others are incredulous as to how I survive/put up with it/cope....answer is I'm too stupid to know how to chuck it in...
Bottom line...there IS no conspiracy other than a bunch of long-time members conspiring to devote their time and effort to the betterment of this community....
