My resignation.
Nov 3 2008, 7:50 PM EST
People of Big Boy Battles, the last two years have been some of the greatest and most exciting of my life. However, the site hs interfered with my life too much. It has really become something I need to force myself to update. I have decided to resign the site to Comic-lover#1. I leave you with quite a mess. You have my deep apologies, and the rest of 2008 will probably have to go to cleaning up the site. I've thought and made my decision. You may try to persuade me, but my decision is like a boulder-it will take many strong people to move me. Goodbye, and thank you. ~Catnip, founder of Big Boy Battles. 2 out of 3 found this valuable.

And with this resignation, one of Wetpaint's greatest leaders and pioneers is gone. You will be remembered for your loyalty to this site and the members that make it up. Goodbye, friend.

"And with this resignation, one of Wetpaint's greatest leaders and pioneers is gone. You will be remembered for your loyalty to this site and the members that make it up. Goodbye, friend."You took the words right out of my mouth DL. We will miss you Catnip, I guess there is no turning you back now, is there? Anyways, thanks for all you've done here, you've made this site a great success, and you were always nice and a very good friend towards me, and everyone here that I can think of! Goodbye. We'll never forget you. ~ Johnnygun, your friend. 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

In the few months that I have been on this site, I have enjoyed your presence. You have really helped all of us with any problem that we faced. You are one of the best wiki creators of all time. And if there is no changing your mind... then I guess this is goodbye.Jake33 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Come on! You can't just leave. Sure, you said that it will take strong people to move you. If there's anyone, there's me. I've known you, and been on the site, for a long time. (Not exactly, but more then other members...). I see you on AIM a lot.. Why can't you update then? Sure, you're busy. But...Comic-Lover isn't nearly as active as you are. He rarely does anything. Now, I'm not trying to put him down, I'm just saying that he's not leader material. He also hasn't even done anything since October 12...Trust me, leaving BBB is something you will regret.But if I can't change our mind, then bye. 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Turnabout, you made some extremely good points. And if comiclover can't do it, then Catnip could always hand it to someone else. But, if a website is interfering with your personal life, then you definitely have to give one or the other up. I going to safely assume he doesn't want to give up his life, so this is the only way.

I can't go on with the site. It's like a weight pulling me down. That's a bad metaphor, considering I'm giving the weight to Comic-lover#1, but that's not my point. Also, none of you have even given Comic-lover#1 a chance to lead! Why would you immediately decide he's not leader material? Because he's always in my shadow? This is his chance to show you what he can be. Besides, he's done a lot more than the likes of you, Turnabout. Who else do you suggest should get the site? I'm too afrad they'll break the tradition. I want someone who will continue to push the site as is. I don't want "major change". For the most part, I want there to be very little difference between miner and Comic-lover#1's leading styles. Besides, Johnnygun, Darkluigi, Flying_Piggy, Bleak, Natasia, and many more people are right behind him. He's not alone. He could do it alone, but he's not. He's got safety nets. Comic-lover#1 will not fail you. I promise. 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Well.... I guess this is goodbye. Somehow I knew this was coming. But seriously, I am not quite sure if you are truely leaving. You have said you would many, many times yet you always come back (reminds me of someone) so I hope this is another one of those.You are one the greatest leaders on Wetpaint. One of the funniest, thoughtful people I have ever talked to. I will miss that. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Catnip, you were (and still are) a great leader. Everyone here will miss you deeply. If you think resigning is the better choice then by all means do it. We won't force you to stay. Even so, I hope that your choice will resolve the problem.Goodbye, friend. 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

I will miss you an awful lot, Catnip. You were like a wise elder, giving support and advice, knowing what to do, and encouraging people. You're also funny. But before you leave, I have 1 off-topic question. Can you please make me part of the staff?Sincerely, ~GooglePlax188~ 2 out of 3 found this valuable. Do you? |

Just because you say "No offense" doesn't mean that there isn't any.
