NigelFt Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 My dear AVEN friends. No doubt you aware of several admods resigning recently. It is with much sadness that I am announcing my resignation as an administrator as well. There are a number of reasons, which I prefer not to go into for the moment, but suffice to say one of them is my mental health; I find myself increasingly lacking the energy required, which in turn has severely affected my ability to commit fully to the forum. I still have a warm affection for the place; I have learnt a great deal, and found some close friends, but I feel the time has come to pass the baton on. I will still be a member, though just not a fully active one. Those who know me from my days when I ran the London meets are more than welcome to stay in touch. I am happy to pass on my personal contact details via PM. I want to thank all of those who first elected me as a moderator all that time ago. I hoped I have served you well. Thank you for listening. And please, go safely. Link to post Share on other sites
