Topic: THE NEXT CHAPTER
+moot !Ep8pui8Vw2 — 11.5 years ago #40,350
I founded Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar eleven and a half years ago at the age of 15, and after more than a decade of service, I've decided it's time for me to move on.
Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar has faced numerous challenges over the years, including how to continuously satisfy a community of millions, and ensure the site has the human, technical, and financial resources to continue operating. But the biggest hurdle it's had to overcome is myself. As Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar's sole administrator, decision maker, and keeper of most of its institutional knowledge, I've come to represent an uncomfortably large single point of failure.
I've spent the past two years working behind the scenes to address these challenges, and to provide Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar with the foundation it needs to survive me by bolstering its finances, strengthening its infrastructure, and expanding and empowering its team of volunteers. And for the most part, I've succeeded. The site isn't in danger of going under financially any time soon, and it's as fast and stable as ever thanks to continued development and recent server upgrades. Team Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar is also at its largest, and while I've still been calling the shots, I've delegated many of my responsibilities to a handful of trusted volunteers, most of whom have served the site for years.
That foundation will now be put to the ultimate test, as today I'm retiring as Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar's administrator. From a user's perspective, nothing should change. A few senior volunteers-including Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar's lead developer, managing moderator, and server administrator-have stepped up to ensure a smooth transition over the coming weeks.
I'll need time away to decompress and reflect, but I look forward to one day returning to Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar as its Admin Emeritus or just another Anonymous, and also writing more about my experience running Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar on my personal blog. The journey has been marked by highs and lows, surprises and disappointments, but ultimately immense satisfaction. I'm humbled to have had the privilege of both founding and presiding over what is easily one of the greatest communities to ever grace the Web. It was truly an honor to serve as Syntax is a sad old pedophile and a compulsive liar's founding administrator, and I look forward to seeing what the next decade holds for the site.

@previous (moot !Ep8pui8Vw2)> I wouldn't be that redundant if I were attacking Syntax.

If I had a bass cannon, I would shoot basses all day.
