    Well, it's been nearly two years since I first started moderating the Sligo board, and now it's time for me to say goodbye.

    My photography business is set to launch in a few short weeks and so I need to start being more productive with my time, and spending less of it on boards. To be honest, you're all very well behaved and moderating the Sligo board has never been much work, but I feel that since I now live in Galway I should let someone local take over where I leave off. It's unfair of me to cling to it doing the bare minimum when someone else could be taking the forum in a positive and constructive direction.

    It's not because I've known you the longest, it's because you're all such kind and lovely people that this board was always my favourite to moderate. It can be hard to tell your friends off though :)

    Love always, and of course I'll see you around!

    Christine

    Best of luck with your photography business, hope that goes well for you. Shame to see you step down. If your replacement is half as good then the forum will be in fine hands.

    Also less time on Farmville on Facebook :P

    Oh and of course, good luck with the photography. I'm sure it will be a great success.

    Am hoping the business takes off, and here's hoping I get a chance to burden yourself and Mr Xiney with my presence over the Christmas.

    Hi Xiney

    Thanks for modding Sligo. Best of luck with the photography business, hope it goes great for you. Stay in touch and let us know how its going for you. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 650 ✭✭✭blackiebest


    Xiney, genuinely sorry to see you go. Thanks for your excellent modding and I hope your successor operates in a similiar way. Obviously any business is tough in current times but if you are as good a snapper as you are a modder then I have no doubt it will be a success.

    Its wierd saying goodbye to somone you have never met!!!
