User blog:NeonSpotlight/Stepping down

Hello, as many of you know I am NeonSpotlight, a Bureaucrat and Admin on the wiki and also the oldest (account age-wise) editor that is still active. For the last year or so the actual amount that I edit has been dwindling down to nowadays I don't even edit during patch time, something that used to be something I'd look forward to. This blog's purpose is for me to tell everyone that I am stepping down as 'crat/admin all the way down to being a regular user (with rollback).

In short I've lost the passion that I once had. Years of dealing with drama, politics and basically constantly having to act a certain way "because I'm a 'crat" or having other people act differently around me because of my rights has taken its toll to the point some days I don't even want to join Chat just so I won't have to deal with any of it. I miss the days back when I could just come on to the wiki and have fun just editing and talking with people as equals.

With that said I'll still be around, I'm not going anywhere, I'm just going to try and rediscover what it was that made me want to be an admin in the first place. I am keeping admin rights on my bot, User:Neon's Toy, for cases of extreme emergency where another mod or admin is nowhere to be found, but don't expect me to just whip it out all the time. For all intents and purposes I will just be regular user with 3+ years of wiki/mod+ experience.

tl;dr: I'm going on break from being an admin to go on some hippy spirit guide quest thing to find myself and rediscover my passion as an editor
