This is the User talk page of User:Essjay, who has left Misplaced Pages. Further discussion of the issues raised by Essjay's departure and surrounding events may be appropriately held in Misplaced Pages project space, such as the Community Noticeboard or the Village pump, but do not belong on the user talk page of a departed user. See also Essjay controversy and the archived discussion at User:Essjay/RFC. Previous versions of this page may be viewed by clicking the "history" tab at the top of the page. |
R E T I R E D
My comments here will be short and to the point: I'm no longer taking part here. I have received an astounding amount of support, especially by email, but it's time to go. I tried to walk away in August, and managed to do so for quite a while, but I eventually came back, because of the many requests I received urging me to return. Many of you have written to ask me to not leave, to not give up what I have here, but I'm afraid it's time to make a clean break.
I ask that the first steward to see this message please remove my various flags from this wiki, as well as from Meta, Commons, and Wikiquote, and remove the bot flags from my bots, which of course will no longer be running. My tools will be taken down shortly. I had planned to delete my user-space myself, but I don't want anyone to think I was going on a rampage, so instead, I ask that one or more administrators who are friends please delete the 288 pages that form my userspace (leaving only my userpage and this talk page).
I've enjoyed my time here, and done much good work; my time, however, is over, and leaving is the best thing for me and for Misplaced Pages. I walk away happy to be free to go about other things. I hope others will refocus the energy they have spent the past few days in defending and denouncing me to make something here at Misplaced Pages better.
With love to all who have been my friends here, Essjay (Talk) 03:17, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
