I have resigned

[probinson]

Hello, fellow forum posters!

For those of you who aren't already aware or haven't noticed, I wanted to make a quick post to let you know that I have resigned from my position of supervisor here at CF.

From now on, any staff concerns should be addressed to flaglady and her capable team.

I am sorry to hear that and I hope that at some point you will reconsider. I am sure there is more to this than that but I will just say that I will pray for you and for cf. It needs a lot of prayer right now from what I am seeing. God bless you

 

[~RENEE~]

One of the very few good ones. Love you dude.

 

[irenemcg]

God bless you Pete! My prayers are with you as the Lord leads you forward from this.

 

[flyingsum0]

Sigh...another great one gone...

 

[Optimax]

Really sorry to hear that.

God bless you and guide you through those things waiting for you.

 

[Questioning Christian]

you suck anyway, good riddance

Nah, Pete!!!! Love you, man. You have done awesome on this forum. They're worse off without you!

 

[ahmunmun]

May I ask why?

You don't have to tell me if it's personal.

Well, since some have asked, and I've gotten a few PM's, I suppose I should quash the rumor mill and the conspiracy theories now before they get out of hand.

My decision to resign was mine alone. I resigned of my own free will and of my own choosing.

I resigned because I reached an impasse with senior staff on a single issue. I can not disclose what the issue was, nor the events surrounding what led to my resignation.

I do not harbor any ill will toward any of the staff. I think they are wonderful people that work very hard, doing the best job they can, but I felt very strongly about this one issue, and that it what led to my resignation.

I apologize for being so cryptic, but staff confidentiality prevents me from saying any more than that. I also do not wish to accuse nor attack any of the staff. I just wanted to try and eliminate any rumors and/or conspiracy theories surrounding my resignation.

Anyway, I hope that answers more questions than it created!

They told Pete, "run out for coffee and donuts", and Pete stood up to them and said, "You're not 'the man', and I'm not your boy! And you can stick this job!"

Handle it, bro! Handle it!

I hate to see you go, but I assume that it was an issue you and I had over one thing. If it was, I ask that you PM me and lets talk this out. I would hate to be the cause of this area losing a good moderator. I would rather leave than cause another to leave.

PM me.

God Bless

Till all are one.

Ahh Pete why didn't ya just get the coffee and donuts?

Uh, yeah... that's exactly how it went down...

Oh no, Dean. This had absolutely nothing to do with you. From what little I did see from you, I think you do an excellent job.

 

[Svt4Him]

Sorry to hear that, you did a lot of work and were always a balanced mod/sup.

Good luck to you Pete.

Spoken like a true North Carolinian.

Nah, Pete actually resigned, because you can't hold down Modship, and form your 2008 presidential exploratory committee at the same time

Can I be your veep? No ... wait ... let me handle the media. Dude, I'm sooo your Tony Snow!!

 

[Alpine]

Good. Now you can engage in debate like you used too and not with your hands tied.

 

[flaglady]

**sigh** I have to confess - it was all my fault. Pete wasn't happy being my toyboy and finally rebelled against this wonderful compliment I paid him!!







**Back in reality** For the record, I have lost a wonderful colleague who was indeed 'one of the good ones'. I already miss him dreadfully

.

But God willing, perhaps we might see him back one day - just pray on that. I'd really like it to be sooner rather than later.










Till then you're all stuck with me!!

You've just given me a swell idea!

Let's see who can come up with the most ridiculously absurd scenario surrounding why I decided to resign.

This could be interesting...
