Well, this really shouldn't come as a surprise to some. I'm stepping down too.
Recently, I've gotten some slack over a post I made over on our Discord server. I acknowledge that I was not in the right mindset to say what I did, nor did all of my points get conveyed properly. I've apologized for it (repeatedly), but it seems as though some still don't see it that way. I can admit I was a bit passive-aggressive in some of my responses, but I would argue that there has been FAR more rudeness coming from your end.
I've already been becoming increasingly less interested in interacting with the community due to how every day it seems like someone's butthurt about something. The problem is that it's my job to be there when that happens.
I do not like coming around here anymore. Even before this whole ordeal, I grew more accustomed to other communities I can actually get behind. I still thought of this place as "okay" at best, but I didn't consider resigning until the events of yesterday and today.
I sincerely am not trying to make it sound like I'm placing the blame entirely on this specific community. That being said, though, I honestly feel like I don't mesh with it at all, anymore. I'd much rather move on to a community that's accepting of who I am instead of constantly dealing with one that pins the blame on me for every little thing that happens on our end. Basic respect towards the staff is something that I genuinely feel is nonexistent.
Can we be doing things better? Definitely. Have we f***ed things up before? Absolutely. But none of these excuse beating us over the head and calling our skill worthless when we TRY to make things better.
Will I come back some day? Maybe, but as for now I'm fed up. If you bump into me somewhere else feel free to say "hi," but I'm personally done trying to sail this sinking ship.
Fare thee well.
