User blog:Akrivus/I Can't Stand This Anymore

Alright, I said I was going to retire late December or early January, but honestly I've just woken up and feel like I want to do it now.

Don't worry, I won't, but I really need to get something out.

Can we ever agree on anything? I mean seriously, considering I'm basically forced to run 6 votes and I'm not allowed to run multiple votes at one time, so what does this mean? Well here's the damn schedule. Honestly, then I have the whole thing with the bot suddenly getting kicked out of chat, so I'm not dealing with that anymore. If you want the bot back, we can vote on it starting October 16th, and when it succeeds on Halloween, it won't be going up because it'll be a month and a half until I fucken' retire!
 * now to August 7th - Chat Moderator Voting (the most hottest topic here)
 * August 7th to August 21st - Discussion Moderator Voting (because I really think that people will contest)
 * August 21st to September 4th - Content Moderator Voting (look above)
 * September 4th to September 18th - Rollback Voting (because I have a system that will blow your mind)
 * September 18th to October 2nd - Quality Review Team (you're all asking for it)
 * October 2nd to October 16th - Achievements (the thing like three users wanted)

So yeah, blowing that aside, I think the votes are over, I'm not contributing any more policies, I'm fed up with this odd form of logic where more edits means you immediately gain our trust and are skilled, and that because of that you're automatically earning a staff position. It doesn't work like that! Just because some random person with 850 edits says "I want chat mod" doesn't mean we can give him chat mod, there are other things to consider such as time zone, chat activity, etc, but we can't really take that seriously because of how small our wiki is at the moment!

Maybe I'm thinking this too politically, maybe I'm too invested in something that I know is going to die, maybe I'm just so fucking stubborn and unwilling to admit I'm wrong that I stick around here. That may very well be the case, after all I've been here since 2009 and made an account in 2011.

Honestly though, I feel like a part of this community died and at the same time I can't help but to wonder if I'm responsible, and as such I'm not sure if I'm pushing this wiki down or bringing it up.

If you need me I'll be on the Steven Universe wiki, if I don't return by Christmas, consider me retired.
