Due to circumstances beyond my control, I reluctantly decided to retire/semi-retire from Misplaced Pages a few days ago. The reason for this was simply frustration. Leading up my decision, I made some legal edits on some articles (which were then criticized unfairly). I took this personally as the edits were very much to the rules and I was fed up with being criticized for EVERYTHING I seemed to do. Fair enough, sometimes I got it wrong, I admit to that and I'm grateful for when this is brought to my attention. However, I researched these edits making sure that it was legal in relation to the Misplaced Pages editing policy. | |||

It's fair to also say that the current ] in which I was nominator all got a bit too much and it was either a fight or flight moment (with me choosing the latter). ] messaged me and I suddenly felt a pang of guilt, remorse and regret for abandoning the article and to those who helped me with it. Today, I recieved a message from Brianboulton: | |||

{{cquote|''While I can understand some of your frustration over the image issues that have arisen during your current FAC, your action in walking away in a huff, leaving others to resolve the problem, looks infantile (as do the stupid rants you have mercifully blanked, about "image nazis", etc). Misplaced Pages image policy was not invented by Jappalang; however, he is one of the few who understands the intricacies of this difficult area. If you work with him, instead of taking ridiculous offence, you will find he will do his best to help you maximise image usage within the highly restrictive Misplaced Pages code. He is a great potential ally, who performs enormously valuable (and largely unthanked) services on behalf of the encyclopedia. Also, I would ask that you give some consideration to the editors who have given of their time and energies to helping you over the Holloway article. I won't be holding my breath for your return to editing, but if/when you do so, I hope it will be with a more mature frame of mind than you are showing at the moment.|20px|20px|}} | |||

With this in mind I will see through the FAC. I am very sorry to those who I left in the lurch as you have helped me so much. I'm determined to score my first FA if it kills me! Hissy fit over... | |||
