User blog:Joe Devaney/This is goodbye... for now at least

As a regular contributor and chat moderator of this site for several years, I just want everyone to know that I will be taking a break starting tomorrow. At first, I completely understood this cleanup process, but now a lot of categories that I love are set to be purged and it is simply too much, esepcially with my new college year having recently started. Therefore, I need to get away and think because I am overwhelmed. I have cleaned up my profile to make sure I don't get any distracting notifications. By the time I return, this will likely no longer be the wiki I have grown to like over the years. If that is indeed the case, I shall resign from my position as a chat moderator. If any of you believe I'm overreacting, then you're free to believe that. However, with all the stress I've been getting recently, I believe this is the right decision. Sometimes, you have to know when you break something off, shake hands and walk away.
