A Resignation

from the not-kim-jung-un dept.

I can no longer sustain the level of activity needed to run SoylentNews, and so I have resigned as leader.

In the end, I was literally begging people to step back and let the site "just run" for a few days while I caught up... alas, to no effect. Issues must be resolved "right here and right now" continuously throughout my day with no end in sight.

NCommander has taken over as project lead - he has access to everything from the registrar down. I understand he has a different vision for the project, which will soon be revealed.

I'm sorry to leave like this, but there's really nothing for it. I'm going back to my AI studies, which happen at a more leisurely pace.

(And yes, this was an amicable transfer of power. There's no hard feelings on my side.)

    It's a very worrying thing to read, but (I hope) we all still hope the best for you and the site. I know I'll still be logging in a week from now.

    Don't cock it up then. :P
