I can no longer sustain the level of activity needed to run SoylentNews, and so I have resigned as leader.
In the end, I was literally begging people to step back and let the site "just run" for a few days while I caught up... alas, to no effect. Issues must be resolved "right here and right now" continuously throughout my day with no end in sight.
NCommander has taken over as project lead - he has access to everything from the registrar down. I understand he has a different vision for the project, which will soon be revealed.
I'm sorry to leave like this, but there's really nothing for it. I'm going back to my AI studies, which happen at a more leisurely pace.

(And yes, this was an amicable transfer of power. There's no hard feelings on my side.)

You are a Firestarter. You provided the spark of motivation when we needed it most. You stoked the spark into one helluva fire. Your decision was to do this for all of us. I thank you for that. I wish you the best on all your future endeavors.
