Yes, Salathe and VG were great as leaders, but they were the first people I spoke with privately when I came in and it was clear they needed more time for themselves to work on other things in life. I respected their choices, even though I really wanted them on board. I am confident, though, that we are moving in the right direction to building a new awesome team.

I'm going to be a Debbie Downer here and just come straight out and say I am not Dear anything to you. You have not approached others with "Dear [User]" so please don't take advantage of my sex to belittle me in a condescending tone.

In regards to your actual comment: Why reply to me? I wasn't the user that initially suggested you utilize a public poll--That was Fez's idea. You even replied to him about it already, so why rehash to me? I didn't say "Hey Artashes, I agree, you should do a public poll!!2!"

My reply was specifically towards Dan saying that it wasn't the best of ideas. I merely said it wasn't that bad as we had some awesome new mods (Village and Spencer) and of course had in-active mods. I then just stated that the worst mod had been Vizon (that I can recall) and as far as I can remember, he was not added in via a public poll. Which I was just proving to Dan that a public poll isn't the worst that's happened here when it comes to mods.
