So I’ve been thinking about this for a while now and I feel that I haven’t got anything to say that hasn't already been said. I try my very best to stay the hell away from any drama and for the most part I’m totally ignorant of anything to do with Slimebeast or conventions. Slimebeast remains my favourite creepypasta author of all time, and I’m deathly afraid of flying so the convention was a write-off for me since day-one unless all you guys wanna have it in the hotel down the road from my house (it’s a lovely place, but maybe a bit out of the way for some of you). Also it’s very wet in Wales, although admittedly not for the last few weeks where we seem to have accidentally ticked the box reading “Afghanistan” for our weather.

Anyway, I’m babbling. Because I’m tired and I don’t want to start work-proper. TFI Friday right?

I can’t and won’t speak for other admins but I’d like to say that I’m committed to hearing out people’s concerns and trying to address them. From what I understand the worries largely focus on Hel’s professionalism and I’m confident in Dupin’s ability to speak to Hel and I’d like to give Hel a chance to improve on these issues.

There are times I’ve dipped below the line of professionalism regarding this wikia. I consider myself a volunteer, and I value my position and I never want anyone to feel as though I’m a petty bureaucrat taking advantage of a small iota of power. Rather, I just like to feel like I’m helping a community full of people with similar interests to me. I’ve dealt with admins who have “bouncer” syndrome before and it left a bitter taste in my mouth. I don’t want to do that. Although I’m sure there are times I could have held myself to a higher standard.

I suppose what I’m trying to say is, this isn’t a sub-reddit. And I hope no one walks away thinking that we treat it like our own personal fiefdom. We're taking this seriously, and I hope that we can all put this behind us soon.

On an unrelated note, if anyone has accidentally pressed a switch somewhere that reads "set the fucking Earth on fire" can you do me a favour and put it back to where it was?

I'm very uncomfortable.
