I owe all of you an apology

I owe everyone an apology for leaving the forum unattended for so long. I don't like talking about my personal life, so I never discussed my reasons for leaving with anyone. I had a lot to deal with when I left, including my mother being ill much of the time. I pretty much drafted yass and paul as admins, which was unfair both to them and to the board, but at the time I was desperate to have a couple of additional admins to look after things in my absence. They had very different personalities, and while that of course made for friction, I thought that might also serve to help keep things in balance, which it did for while, but it was also extremely unfair to yass because she ended up bearing the brunt of responsibility here, whereas paul began using the forum for his personal venting and vendetta ground, and I strongly suspect for other, worse things.

Contrary to what someone began communicating to certain people here as well as posting on the forum, I have never, ever been on drugs, and I have never, ever been C.I.A. or anything like that. Someone must have jumped at the opportunity to slander me while I was away from the forum, as part of an agenda to sabotage and take over the forum. I only looked in on the forum occasionally, barely skimming a few threads every few weeks, and I did not realize the extent of what was going on. If I had realized what was happening sooner, I would have come back sooner.

I think yass and I have managed to clean up the mess in what has been a long, exhausting week for both of us, and the dust is settling now. I hope that we can now get the focus of the forum back to researching and discussing things other than the forum, though discussing the forum itself is welcome when it is not done merely to slander the admins or the board.

Hi Petunia, I like the interface change better.
I was too pale before.
