Dis is your 'at. You will take care of it. You will eat it. You will sleep on it- no, wait, sorry. ^_^;

Weirdly enough, there is precedent for 'PG leaves and hands their hat on to someone else'. We argued it out before, and Cassie made a very good PG. So I feel comfortable saying that Zingenmir can wear the Hat with pride a gruelling sense of duty.

Since July herself made peace with Tomash, I think you're overreacting, and I'm sad to lose one of the few voices of reasoned dissent we had in this.

I hope you'll repent of that last wish of suffering on others. I don't think it's healthy or helpful for anyone.

May time bring you perspective and healing.

I'm sorry to see you go. I'll miss you grumping into the chat to grumble about philosophy and Japanese.

That said, though, I have to ask, what more would you have us do that we aren't already doing? I know what happened to JulyFlame was horrible, at least as much as I can know without being directly involved, but the PPC is essentially a direct democracy. The only real response we have to things like this is community consensus. Given that almost all of us probably have different ideas on what "strong action" is and when and how to apply it, and with the waters further muddied by even July saying Tomash doesn't need to be banned (not saying that's the only issue, just the most prominent one) how can we move any faster or more strongly than we already are?

I don't mean to sound accusatory or put you on the spot to try to fix the community's problems, I just want to understand. If there really is something wrong with the way we do things that's driven two respected members of the community away, I'd like to at least get some idea of what it is. I haven't seen it in six years here, so if there's something to see I'm not likely to see it on my own, and with July gone and you leaving, this is basically my last chance to ask about it.

Whether you choose to respond or not, or even read this post, I hope you do well wherever you wind up in life.
Good luck.

...Then there's throwing every single person who even happened to be present for the discussion out on their ear, regardless of what they actually said or did.

I just want to say that your leaving has been noticed.

I also want to say that your impact on this community will not be forgotten.

Thank you. That is all.

Mind telling us who the new Discord owner is? Because now we're down to a whopping one mod and have no way to appoint new ones.
