Never really saw myself doing this- but the time has definitely come where Life has taken over everything. Starting from April 30th until June 20th, I have sixteen exams (which will give me 7 GCSEs to add to the 3 I got last year.) and they pretty much decide the next two years of my life for me and possibly beyond (to university or not to university, that is the question). So it's study time for me and this leaves little time for anything else. Including this. You probably noticed my lack of posting- though I have been lurking to check on any bad behaviour (of course, there was none ), due to the immense busy that is my life right now. It's just insane and I can't get distracted. My attention span is short enough without inflicting further fun on myself!

I just want to thank all the posters- this is a wonderful board and one of the most peaceful boards at FF. I have only ever had one problem with a member and that member stopped posting shortly after in eight months. Given that some boards have daily problems, that is quite a achievement! I am leaving you in the perfectly capable hands of Jule and I just know that the next moderator is going to be excellent.

I've had a lot of fun, guys, and you've been great. I need to give someone this great opportunity! I'll still be moderator until a new one is picked.

And don't worry, once the exams are over, I'll be posting like mental. And this has gone on forever, so I'm shutting up now.

Your mod,
Steph

Oh Steph I so didn't see this coming
I think my heart stopped for a second when I read the thread title...
I don't really know what to say right now...

but I know how it is when life is getting in the way... I myself have my finals the same time you have your exams but my way of studying for them still allows me to hang here.

I wish you good luck with your exams
I had a great time modding with you for the last two months

Well, I wasn't really expecting it myself. I just decided for definite tonight, but I've been thinking about it for a while. I just thought I'll PM the Mod Manager and get it over with, otherwise I'll chicken out!

I'll still have time to hang out here- but it'll be, like, one week I'd be free all week and the next I'd be busy all week.

Thank-you very much! Me, too Good luck with your finals, too.

Awww I'm sorry you have to leave the board Steph (well the mod place) I understand though, how 'real life' can take over our time on internet or actually over all the other things more fun than studying and that always suck (Especially when it's so hard to get away from this forum, for example, and go work lol) I will also have some exams who will come sooner than I would like
Anyway, you've been a great mod and I do hope once your exams are done you will have the time be around here again

So, good luck with your exams and everything *hugs*

I used to post on this board all the time when the show was on. This board was sooo busy back then. Good luck with your exams. I'm sure the new mod will fill your shoes just fine.
