I owe everyone a bit of an explanation

It has come to my attention that some of my posts lately have been on the annoying side, and I think I owe everyone an explanation.

See, I was once a forum administrator long ago.  DZComposer (then called Double Zero) was a newbie on my board.  And I looked after the users, and the health of our forum.  Now that I'm an ordinary user here, the role is reversed.  DZComposer has been extraordinarily helpful and kind to me, and made me feel most welcome.

DZ faced a real headache with underlying administrative drama (which, despite being quiet on the surface, has been said to be messy underneath), and he became deeply concerned for the health of the SFO forums.  It seemed to be triggered by my presence.  I felt bad for his hardship, and I wanted to help.  So, when faced with dilemmas, I try to think of constructive solutions.  In this case, I turned to polling, education, and civil discussion.  I'm the type of person who wants to make the world a better place if I can, so I could barely be apathetic to this situation.

I know it seems that I'm discussing the same topic on multiple threads, and that seems to be annoying.  To be honest, I also wish it weren't raised so often.  But it's my understanding that this situation has been fairly serious.  If there's important work to be done, I am often willing to risk a degree of annoyance to do it.  And I do this not only to help enlighten people, but also because I couldn't simply sit by while DZ was working so hard himself over something that was related to my presence to begin with.

Anyway, I hope to allow this all to wind down as soon as the underlying source of drama and DZ's headache finally fade.  For all his hard work, he deserves better.

Mutual respect goes a long way towards civility, and as I have said before, I believe this is one reason why this community is seemingly more successful than other English-language Star Fox sites.

This is why I love this place, and why I am honored to lead this community. We have our ups and downs, but we always come through them without major damage.

Thank you for being accepting.

Well, I'm a late (as always) to find out about all this stuffs, but, I liked all the polls, gave me a quick something to do if nothing was happening, also just saying, I particularily liked the poll about irregular citrus fruit...
