RikerChick 5 Posted July 16, 2003 This is just to let everyone know that I've decided to step down as a mod. This has nothing to do with the board, I love this place so much and I'll still be here as a regular member. I've just decided that I need to spend less time online and more time with my kids. With two very young kids it's hard for me to devote the time needed to be as good of a mod as I'd like to be. So I'm just regular folk again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chataeya 0 Posted July 16, 2003 :lol: This is so sad. But I do understand. Please spend the time you need to with them as they grow up quickly. This I know, as my 18 year old has now left, and I am starting to feel that Empty Nest sydrone. :lol: :lol: My 10 year old is now living with my Mother, and my 6 year old wants to be with her. Soon, they will be back at school here, as they start Aug. 7th. So, Yes, the house is empty. :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Riaan 0 Posted July 16, 2003 Sorry to hear you're stepping down RikerChick. You were doing such a great job as a Mod. Glad you'll still be around as one of us "regular" folks. Childern grow and change so fast. You need to spend as much time with them as possible. Family DOES come first. I can probably speak for all the members: Give your children big fat hugs and kisses from all of us on the board! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ddillard 2 Posted July 17, 2003 Just an FYI for everyone. It has been decided that RC will continue to have MOD ability in the chat room, and I will continue to support any decision that she makes there. She will be under no obligation to use the controls, but they will remain at her disposal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
