Thanks to all and sundry. Like the other moderators, I did my best to not let my personal opinions influence my decision making, and for the most part I do believe I was successful. I would attribute this to the guidance of the other moderators and administrators, and to the bottle of Tullamore Dew in my desk(2nd drawer down, right side.)

Who’s gonna keep me bat-shitting all over myself from now on??? 🙂

Thanks for all you’ve done, **Czarcasm** and I’m glad you’re still with us.

Does this mean the incessant Czarcasm hecklings are a thing of the past? Tightly clenched fists, resignation-demand riots; angry mobs threatening to storm the steps of administrative headquarters lest he step down?

What are posters expected to do now with all the spare time?

I’m glad you’re going to continue to post **Czarcasm.** I’d make a chicken joke, but since I’m about, Ah say, about as sharp as a bowlin’ ball, I got nothin’.

**Czarcasm** –

Thank you.

You’ve done very well, over these many years.

I’m grateful for your work.

You’ve been a Mod since…99? Yes?

It’s a darn shame that **Cecil** and **TubaDiva** will now have to take you out back of the barn, & give you the Old Yeller treatment, like all the other retired Mods.

(Yes, I’m kidding.)

😃

Again, my thanks.

**Czarcasm** , good luck on your new life.  
It seems like moderators move in sets of two..who else is retiring?

Do you live next to **flatlined**? Should we call you Carl?

I hear members do even better when they are banned..or..retire.

So if **Czarcasm** tells posters what to do in a thread, will he get warned for senior modding?
