I'm really sad about your decision but I'm sure that you have your reasons and I accept that. It will be strange though, not to have you as a mod anymore.
I just want to tell you that you and Kate were a great team and you were an awesome mod. Thank you for the great job you did and for making this board a place where I felt welcome right away and that is like a second home.
We might lose you as a mod but we won't lose you as a friend, and that's what is most important.
See, you're not the only one who is sappy.
