Announcing my retirement as moderator

[Distracted]

It's been fun, guys, but everything must eventually come to an end. I've just given Elessar my notice as moderator and story poster. I sincerely hope whoever he finds to take my place is a better fit for the site. I'll post the chapters I have, and then I need to move on for personal reasons. Be well. God bless you all.

[Elessar]

I'll be holding down the fort for now, Chris thank you for so many years of service and friendship this place rose on the backs of volunteers and it wouldn't have been around to see nearly 7 years go by if it weren't for dedication and the thankless, tireless efforts of so many like Dis.

[Weeble]

I'll miss you lady, thanks for the help and encouragement as I learned to put together stories..

[CX]

Kind of sad at the thought of you not posting anymore stories.

[Alelou]

Good luck, Distracted. You have been tireless in your efforts and I know we all appreciate it.

Hope you'll pop back in as a member if we're still here, especially to let us know when your book is available!

[Distracted]

Of course. Thanks.

You have been great in your efforts in moderating this site. Personally I would like to thank you for all the hours you spend in not only posting the stories, but in many occassions have beta-ed them as well. You have a sharp eye when it comes to good story telling.

But most of all, I like to thank you for your friendship to the members of this site and your kindness and friendship towards me. Thanx. [insert flower-slimie here].

[Asso]

Of course, I wish you every luck, you deserve it.
But, frankly, my sadness is too strong.
So it ends an era.
Your "Enterprise Fifth Season" was not only beautiful, but also made me realize that "there was hope" for Trip and T'Pol.
You've been here "all along", you are the Vestal of this site.
Yes, it ends an era.

But it is necessary that the torch of Trip and T'Pol remains well alive!

Let me add my appreciation and thanks for all you have done for this site and for me.

[Kevin Thomas Riley]

All good things... now where I have I heard that before?

[dialee]

THANK YOU! You will certainly be missed.

Also, hope you won't need to be so distracted anymore.

[putaro]

Thanks for all the fish Dis! Your hard work and your fics have been appreciated. Don't feel like you have to hide out just because you're not moderating, though.

[Cogito]

It's hard to imagine finding somebody who is a 'better fit for the site' as you put it, because you've been the heart and soul of the site for as long as I've been here. I hope your personal reasons will involve lots of gratifying and rewarding story writing in whatever genre has taken your interest. I know you'll be writing somewhere because I don't believe a talent such as yours will allow itself to be ignored for long. Thanks for your hard work over the years as a moderator, and even more thanks for the hours of reading pleasure you've given me. I think I may have mentioned that it was your story - or rather, your extended series of stories - that first interested me in Enterprise fanfiction. They say you never forget your first time, and I never will.

No Greater Love

Don't be a stranger, y'hear?

[Distracted]

Aw. Y'all are gonna make me cry.

Thanks for the encouragement. I truly appreciate everyone's friendship, and I'm not going anywhere. I'm still a member, just not an administrator any more. Thanks everybody for your understanding.

[Alelou]

Oh, yay! We'll be seein' you around then! Assuming the site stays in business, anyway.
