Burn out is not a pleasant place to be. {{{{{Hugs}}}}} Please know that I owe you and FM an enormous debt of gratitude for helping me get to where I am now. <br /><br />Don't let a few grumbles negate the incredible work you have done over the years. FM is an enormous site and there's no way you can make everyone happy.<br /><br />Best to you in the new Lisa Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07530826748768737972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3200079.post-88984582690578982602011-12-23T14:46:03.839-06:002011-12-23T14:46:03.839-06:00I think the few days off have helped.

Also, I know the moderators have really stepped up and come up with some ideas, and I'm looking forward to seeing what they think now!<br /><br />So, all is well.

I don't get the feeling that anything is being 'ruined'.<br /><br />The main reason I feel I have to write a comment right now is just to let you know that I acknowledge and respect the time and effort you have put into the website.

Those of us who do hang out at the chartroom regularly do appreciate you and while I can't talk for everyone its not going to be the same without you. We'll miss you, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do.
