Crap Happens. I made a mistake. it was a large mistake and I ended up hurting people in the process. People I cared about, and people I did'nt mean to hurt in the process. I refuse to defend myself against these accusations because they are true. To those people, and they know how they are, I'm sorry.
Along with the above issue, I've been flooded with RL work, and it's been affecting my online time and prescene as a whole, keeping up with things, while trying to get work done and get to needed things on the main site. This has kind of offically killed my mood for doing much for this site, period. It is not this issue, as the mixture of my hectic RL and trying to run a website in a poor manner because of the hecticity.
The following final changes will be made by me in the following Week:
The 'Annoying banner ad' (Something I needed to put up, since it comes from the guy who currently hosts FUS for us.) at the top of the forum needs to remain up at least a month, then it'll dissapear. 'Artist of the Moment' and 'Issue of the Week' will be removed from the main page. 'Episode of the Moment' will become 'Random SatAM Episode' and randomize on a page load. Also, the Archie 'Additions' won't be happening. Once I am sure I'm done with my work, control will be handed over to 'Chief'. What he does after this is none of my bussiness, but I probably would'nt expect any massive changes, unless he has something in store. I'm still going to act as the 'host' for the site on it's current space, but I can't promise what may happen when the host's time runs out (Which, still isn't for two years, so theres no immediate concern.). Ideally, I would want Chief , or, someone's on Chief's behalf, to get his own host, and I'd transfer the satamfans.com domain over to him at some point.
It's been nice guys, but it's not fair folks are leaving because of me and my stupid actions, or are suffering due to my prescene as the site's head or having anything to do with the site, because of those stupid actions. Moreover, leave these guys alone, they have every reason to be upset.
~Rocky/Daniel.

I still have no clue what's going on, so I suppose any comment I make can't really take the full extent of this into account, so I guess the only thing I can say is Goodbye, Rocky.

Alright so.. I should make a post here.
I'm not going to mention anything about my takeover, or the reasons behind it so don't bother asking. This post will be short as it is mostly just my quick post to give members some idea of what to see.
Right now nothing is going to change too much in till I can figure things out fully on the site. But one big change will be staff changes right off the bat. As some of you might see Morgan is now a forum Admin, she knows a lot about sites and the forum. There will be some other staff changes but you will see those as they come.
The layout might change slightly on the forum, and on the site but... Nothing as of right now.
Anyways, I'll give you more news as I settle stuff in.
As for Rocky,
It was great to work with you sir. You are a good friend, and helped me out when needed. I look foreword to the future and hopefully working with you again. Thank you.

Another note, a good friend of mine who knows a lot about sites and boards agreed to help me out a bit to start with. You will see a new admin under the name of "Puss". Puss knows a lot and agreed to help me, so don't be suprised by a random new admin for now.

Hi, I'm the new admin! I actually signed up a while ago and became friends with Chief in the meantime. Sorry I didn't post much. I'm not sure what's going on but far be it from me to get involved with board politics.
I guess I'll just wait for Chief to get his FTP information and we'll go from there. Don't worry, we won't let anything bad happen to the site.

I just wanted to tell you that the hardest thing I've faced
Wasn't the teasing or the pain
It was convincing myself I wasn't stupid, strange, or lame
And helping others do the same.

It strikes me that whatever happened, most of us are never going to know, so it's hard to know the appropriate manner with which to approach your leaving, Rocky. So I'll say this: good luck to you in the future Rocky, congratulations Chief on your new position, welcome puss and congatulations to those of you who make the new power structure.
I look forward to seeing how the place continues from here on in.

No..I'm pretty sure theres an ED page in the works, so you guys can get all the lurid details then.
I'm not coming back when I hand control over to Chief, so thats all there is to it.

These are strange times; new here, I have no place among them but that of an observer....
Still, Rocky, no matter your infractions, I wish you well in your efforts, and hopefully nothing lingers to plague you. I believe that everyone involved in whatever issue that has passed deserves at least a time of thought and clearer conscience and judgement in time.
As for yourself, Chief, I welcome you in some of your new efforts. Just what running this area demands, I do not know, but in the joint light of your cooperation with this new administrator, I feel the site will be in capable hands. I wish you luck.
Puss, it appears you are known by some of the seniors here. Your presence is encouraging, and hopefully you find the reformed community fascinating to contend and communicate with. As with Chief, I wish you luck, and equal welcome.

Whenever I finish the last bits and details I need to.. these are largely updating the E-mails pointing to 'RockyCoon@satamfans.com' around the site (Though I've think I've gotten most of them..., save for some of the system ones, like the Oekaki, etc.). I've said 'A week', but I'll probably more along the lines of 'a day or two' at this rate.

Where do we stand in the money side of things? How much will it cost to keep this place running when the whole takeover business kicks in?

Rocky,
It's sad to see you go. Even though I am relatively new here I know this site owes a lot to you; mainly its success and survival. Best of luck to you in RL.
To Chief and the other new admins,
I am sure you guys will be great. Chief I have seen you around since I became a member so its good to know you will still be with us. As for Puss, I haven't seen you before, but there is nothing wrong with new faces, I am sure you will be a great admin.

It's going to be different without you Rocky, and knowing that Chief is going to be in charge, we all know he'll do a great job in keeping the site under control. Puss, like the others said, welcome aboard, I've only seen you here maybe once or twice, but hey, it's good to see new people come here now and then.

Well, this is unexpected. I leave for a week and when I come back everything's gone haywire. I don't know anything about what happened, so I'll just say goodbye and good luck to those who are leaving, and a hearty welcome to those who are new.

It may not have turned out quite as planned but you've made some good changes to this place. I'm another one of the ignorant, but whatever happened best of luck to you with your future endeavors, Rocky.

John will be paying for our new host so thats why you will see him as admin. I'm not sure how much admin related stuff he will do if any, however he will be paying for the site for now. Atleast to keep us up and running.
