Kava's Ramblings

Insights, Observations, Scenes, Thoughts, and other miscellenous and etcetera from the mind of an online nut...



Moderator No More I have a lot of loose ends to tie up still at the moment, so I'm going to keep this brief for now, though I'll come back later to reply to comments and such. I don't know when the actual mod status will be removed from my account, but I am no longer going to be a moderator on this site. No, I'm not being kicked out, it is my choice. I've been unhappy at it for quite a while now for various reasons, and it's simply time and past time really. I'll still be trying to reply to the left over PM's in my inbox when I can. I'll also be setting my PM's to friendlist only shortly so that I won't continue to receive moderator PM's in the meantime. If you want to talk to me and you're not currently on my friendlist, just reply here or something and perhaps I'll add you or PM you my aim name or something. ~Kava Edit Sunday afternoon: I went through and replied to all of the old PM's that I could. Unfortunately, while I was in the middle of doing so Saturday night, a glitch caused at least 30 or so PM's to suddenly vanish from my inbox. So to any who I didn't reply to at all, I'm really sorry. I tried. =/

	Sorry to hear you've been unhappy for some time now T__T Hopefully your choice will work out for the better then! But ooo, maybe once everything's all caught up and you're able to prop your feet up and rest, old time late late night HUGE ranty convos again? I do miss those :3

	I hope to see me around more too, Sephy. I'm not sure though how things will go. Lately I haven't been logging in hardly because I wanted to avoid Gaia entirely. Maybe after this I'll be able to get back into just enjoying the site and the friends I've made here. It's really hard to go back sometimes though, so we'll see. I hope so Kenzie. ^^ I want to concentrate on the things I still enjoy, that much is certain.

Commented on: Sun Sep 17, 2006 @ 05:56am


	YAY! I mean...sorry to see you leave the team ^^; but very glad to see that you'll be able to enjoy the site more, I can only imagine that it's more fun as a normal user than a mod, I just hope you don't leave the site completely, that would be sad. I know I don't keep up with you very often but it would be nice to keep in touch with the Kava, as whever I have spoken with you, you always seem rather thought-envoking and kind Good luck getting used to it though.

	pokes Arcane and mews ; ; chuckles at Spooty AuD: It's not my intention to do so. Hopefully I can simply get back into being more social and stay away from the 'political' aspects of the site. I think I'd enjoy that. I'm just not sure I can do it. laughs If I was good at avoiding stepping into conflicts, I'd never have got roped into being a mod in the first place. Sephy: Sounds like a plan. I'm probably going to be quiet until they actually remove the purple from my name though. ^^;;

	As unbelievable as it may sound from me, really will suck with you out of the position. But I understand the need to have some spare time, and it'll be good to probably see you around more often in general again eventually.

	This news is so gloomy for me. I'm really sad to see you leave the mod team because you've been an inspirational leader in it. You stood out from the others because your answers weren't calculated or report-like or copied & pasted. Everything I ever saw you write was written as it came to mind, personal and honest and accessible. Watching you resign just sucks for me, I've been a fan for so long, well before July. I'm happy you'll be able to shrug the stress off your shoulders more easily now, though, and I hope Gaia will go back to being the fun, stress-free place for you it was when you joined. PM me anytime, I'd love to chat. Your name won't look right not being green or purple. I've gotten a lot out of shamelessly reading your journal, amongst your many other daring, dangerous, odd and grim entries. To me, you're a LEGEND!

Commented on: Mon Sep 18, 2006 @ 07:06pm


	Purrrrple. mew Hey Arethic, maybe I'll come help you upkeep the bugs thread. :domo: curls up in the box and mews at Arcane snugs Sevi and pulls her into the box x3 Window: It's going to be odd. =/ I keep remembering things that I hadn't quite got to and then rushing back to try and finish them because I have a sinking feeling that if I don't, they'll simply never get done. Still, I won't change being me even if I'm not a moderator, and I was still contributing to this community long before becoming one. So hopefully there will still be some interesting things in this journal. I always like to give people something to think about. Too often they fail to look outside of their own viewpoint to that of others. Maybe I'll take the time now to go back and finish that Marketplace tips guide that I meant to update and kept forgetting about. @@;

	As long as Gaia stays fun. -I'd suggest that is how you became a moderator in the first place. I know that feeling of remembering things I hadn't quite got to. I'm not getting to some of them now. I've been like that for ages, but modding makes it worse. ^^ Thanks for weening me off the purple by replacing it with blue.

Commented on: Mon Sep 18, 2006 @ 11:09pm


	No more crowded inboxes for you! You can be a normie like old times XDDD Does that mean you'll be talking a lot more on the forums? :3 o.o It sucks that you've been happy for various reasons hugs but if you're happy now that's great X3

	Would be nice to have you helping with that again Kava. I know a few people seem to be interested in helping with it a bit, which I could definitely use atleast at this time. Been too busy on other personal projects sadly, been keeping me away from Gaia in whole >_o; But yes, would be very glad to see you helpin with that for sure : )

Commented on: Fri Sep 22, 2006 @ 04:49pm


	Window: Well I've always assumed that they made me a mod because I was helpful, but I dunno, sometimes I wonder. The one I realized I still hadn't got to most recently was another FMI update. Meh. And the mod who was working on it with me is also gone for the moment, so... I'll try to get to it tonight or something I guess. Kaze: I'm hoping so, but I'm hesitant to do so until they remove the purple from my name. If I post in the forums users are more likely to see me, then get upset because they can't PM me and go yell and scream about moderators who won't accept PM's. At the moment, I'm low profile, have removed myself from all forums, and am kinda waiting. Arethic: I'll see how it goes. Don't want to promise anything. Still, the bug stuff I did because I liked doing it an enjoyed it, and that was before I was a mod, and I've missed it.

	That's a surprising thing for you to say - what made you wonder if you were made a mod for a reason other than being helpful? It doesn't sound like the FMI update is anything I can help you with, but if I can do anything please let me know~

Commented on: Tue Sep 26, 2006 @ 11:54pm


	Hello. You dont know me but i figured i would say Hello. sorry about you not being a mod :/ Things like that are alot of responsibility and consumes alot of time.... lol im sure you can see that for your self tho. Well anyway it would be kool to PM i guess just to say hi, im always looking to make freinds so yea. Alright well bye, and ttyl mabey?

	Window: Eh, I'm odd sometimes and wonder odd things? Vincent: It really is and it really does. More than most people who haven't done it or something like it before tend to realize. Even those who have done something similar before tend to fail to grasp the sheer enormity that is Gaia and the scale of the numbers of people and posts, etc... that Gaia moderators have to deal with. Feel free to come back and chat s'more. ^-^

	I feel sadder now. You were one of the down-to-Gaia mods. You might not know me personally but I know I looked up to you more compared to other mods. It's true, Gaia's been through some not so 'community' feel changes now. I keep on coming back though... just hoping, just hoping the old feeling will come back. That the community will stop being a drama fest and the admins/devs would plan things out and not to mention ask the users personally if they'd like something before they give it to us. -Nods- I understand about the not so good things in life. It's hard to get by with that burden, the emotional stress. -Gives a big giant hug- I'll still always look up to you, and I look forward to any helpful topics or community events you help in. -Gives a cookie- Hope to see you around and doing better soon.

	ahh that sucks. atleast you still have the people who love you even if you are not a mod. I still look up to you because being a mod is a big responsibility and you were able to handle it.

Commented on: Sat Nov 08, 2008 @ 06:02pm
