Tendering my letter of resignation
submitted over 9 years ago by abdadaI will rip you a new one if you don't use the sidebar & search.

After realizing that the job of a moderator of /r/DIY_eJuice includes wading through thousands of posts a day involving imgur links of handchecks, clone requests, and spam from Asian dating sites, I realized this isn't the job for me.

All I wanted to do was censor people and ban people, but it appears being a moderator means doing actual work and not just clicking the censor or ban button.

As of 12:15PM CST today, I must resign my position and pass the torch to those who have nothing better to do with their time.

Thank you all for the memories, the gifts, the cheering crowds and the tears of joy I received from the endless work I've put in these few short hours.

I hope you all accept my abdication from the throne, but feel free to bow and worship me whenever we cross paths.

Walking on roses,

A.B. Dada

Ex-Moderator and overload

I apologize for my misstep. Will a blood sacrifice save face?

At least you will now have more time to be a dick to people in ecr.

Y'know.. /u/abdada is a dick. No doubt about it. But I think that's fine. I love him dearly and his contributions to the community and getting the idea of Deeper DIY going has really changed the game for me. And honestly, if he was gone you can't say you wouldn't miss the shit out of him. He's so entertaining. And genuinely helpful too.

He's a personality around here, that's for sure. And I love it. I'd be bored without him around.

I've been writing online for almost 30 years and I've played every possible character personality imaginable.

This one works best because the people who matter will notice and have better retention.

Since I don't charge for my knowledge, I need to profit somehow from sharing. Reputation is a form of profit.

Doors open, I'll take it.

True that, my man. I respect the hell out of your work and your assistance. And I always love to see a good ass-tearing when somebody doesn't read the damn sidebar :)

edit - lmao I love that you get downvoted 90% of the times you post.. buncha salty fuckers.

Does.... Does this mean I have to cancel my FW order? Or should I have just stuck with McCormicks new line?

I feel lost now...

You can't cancel anyway, nor can you cancel the auto-bill that will happen monthly.

It's for your own good, trust in the overlords.

Great now we're gonna have to go back to "measuring." Just when I thought I'd be able to make a meaningful contribution.

I'll just post this recipe here.

You know that one down the road it's got the couches and the guys sitting around in the affliction shirts and flat brimmed hats making it look super cool.

by Granpa_Strangeover 9 years ago

Omg I LOVE that place! Though that guy in the affliction shirt always tells me to get a different mod every time I'm in there even though I just walked outside to make a phone call... I can't afford to spend a couple hundred bucks whenever I walk in the door.

You had a good run while it lasted. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say you will be missed and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

As an subreddit Overlord, you shared with us your fears, dreams, and hopes for the future. We all, even if for only a brief moment in time, bonded together and believed we could collectively be better than what we were. You impelled us to seek forth and find it within ourselves to wield our true potential.

For that you will never be forgotten.

We just planned to make him a mod, all of his posts were pure improv, and frankly some of the best shit I've ever read.

Sad to hear. Are you still going to be unofficially ripping people new ones for being terribad? That's half the fun of being here.

The Lord (Leo) has granted me the willpower and fortitude to carry the torch of shitcommenting to the 4 corners of the world and even Reddit.

If an anus must be ripped, by the Leo's mercy I shall be the one tearing a gape the size of the average vaper into them.
