User blog:Dargoo Faust/Retirement



Well, it's certainly been a ride with this wiki.

It's honestly hard to part ways with the site that got me into versus debating and some of my current favorite series, as well as my hobby of writing, however it would be worse to continue pretending that my attention isn't massively directed in other places, and it'd be a disservice for me to continue as an administrator here despite not contributing much to the rules, regulations, or even general content on this site.

So, this isn't really a goodbye from me to this wiki as much as this is pointing out the obvious. My wealth of activity here ended fairly early in 2018 with the Fate Tourney, with the occasional unfinished project after that.

I don't make any promises to post content here as I've repeatedly tried and failed at that, so if I ever feel like writing up a battle, I will do so. And if I ever feel like finishing an old battle or the often requested Fate Tourney, I will do so. If I see a battle that interests me here and feel like voting, I will do so. However, that is not a guarantee in the slightest.

Naturally I'll be demoting myself to a regular user or "Self-Retired Bureaucrat", getting the cool name and comment color.

Some callouts:


 * Appelmonkey: One of the first people I got to know on this wiki over chat, and the person I'd consider responsible for drawing me in proper with a shared interest in SCP. Thank you for introducing me to this wonderful site, and thank you for being a wonderful friend during my time here. I look forward to talking on discord every now and then. Your work on this site has kept it alive and well, and in my opinion keeps it from being a dilapidated mess with your upkeep of pages that will honestly never have battles again.


 * WS: Again, someone who voted on many of my early battles and gave me motivation to continue writing here despite my horrible attention span in regards to writing shit out before moving on to other works. Also a great mate for streaming stuff at night and talking FGO. I'll probably be talking with ya on discord for a while to come, although this is a bittersweet goodbye on the site where we first met.


 * Leo: You have introduced me into many series and authors that have become favorites of mine for years to come (Looking at you, Brandon Sanderson), and give love and life to works of fiction that wouldn't receive it much from other places. Your writing is easily one of the best on the wiki, and is filled with a depth and complexity that I strive to achieve when writing random thoughts in my notebook. I look forward to keeping in contact on the discord and debating the quality of VSBW.

Goodbye, and thank you, Deadliest Fiction Wiki!
