Thanks, but I stepped down to allow the team to grow. (I can't comment too much. One of the new Admins takes everything way too personally. This post may end up being deleted as well.) Sadly it appears that the Admin team is no longer growing in a positive direction.

Pete stepped down for personal reasons -- positive reasons, and I am happy for him. The only thing I can say about his is that they were good reasons, and that the main reason is that his life took a really positive turn. :) I really miss him and his humor.

Oddly, it is Jens that is supposed to be retired. xD I guess he can't stay away from DCW. He needs to retire for his personal life growth, but I can't say I am not happy that he is still contributing. DCW needs a Bureaucrat that will resist the changes being made to it at this stage.

I am not too sure about Andi. He's retired, but I was hoping that he would come back and contribute from time to time. I was encouraging it. The spirit of teamwork and tolerance is no longer in DCW, I feel. I hope it will not affect the work I did with Andi. Andi's contribs were much appreciated as and when he made them.

Ivan... I think Ivan is still around, but he may have been banned for being underaged. He's definitely under 13, but he is more mature than that. Maybe he's hiding because of his age?

Nic. Ah. :) My favourite joking partner. I miss joking with him. He's fun to have around. I believe I see signs that his work is catching up with him, so if he is still active, he may not be for much longer. Nic was grooming DevSharma to share the graphics work with him. It is too much work for one person.

Nmtan is also busy with his personal life, so the last of the old team may be leaving soon, if he has not already. Our resident coding addict, and personally, a rock to depend on. I requested Nmtan to groom Rianza33 to share his coding work, but I don't know if she has the interest for it. It isn't necessary for her to learn it, but there needs to be someone who can take over when (definitely "when", not "if") Nmtan retires.

I am going to miss the old team.

I haven't decided as yet if I will continue to be active, as a normal contributor. I guess it depends on the atmosphere.

The two of you were under consideration for Admin, but you sort of failed a couple of tests. lol

I believe I covered everything? And then some, I think. lol Good luck reading this. It may be deleted. =D
