Leo Stepping Down
I have sent the Administrator and Owners notice that I will be stepping down as a Moderator. January 8th will be my last day. Be kind to each other, and don’t get caught up in the whizzing contests that usually end up in an infraction or ban.
Regards

Thank you for the work you did. You were a well balanced Mod. Really is a thankless job though. Hope you have a great 2021.

What? You aren't putting in the time for the full pension plan!
And who can blame you. Thanks for hanging in there as long as you did. As Dean said, it's a thankless job. But thanks Leo.

Leo thanks for all you did on the forum.
And yes, let's meet up next time it is convenient for you, and restrictions are hopefully off.

This is a sad day. You sir have been one of the best moderators in my time here.
But I understand, moderating takes a toll on a person,, in their time and in frustration. It's not easy keeping a herd of angry people in check.
I hope you the best with all you do in the future and hope you remain an active member.
God speed sir.

Hey Leo.... Big THANKS for all your time and efforts you put into this forum, I do believe we were lucky to have you....enjoy some time to do the important things in life now...like post something completely off the wall on many threads throughout the day...and even the next day....you will fit right in as one of us then...but some of us had to practice..others just come by it naturally.
All the best to you Sir..
