After 5 years I have decided to leave my role as Community Moderator at the InvisionFree and ZetaBoards service.
My reasons for doing so are simply that over the last year or so I have been committing less and less time and effort to my role and felt that I really no longer deserved to be in the position that I was. I had fallen out of touch with other staff members and more importantly I had fallen out of touch with the community itself.
I have many, many good memories of my time at InvisionFree and ZetaBoards and can honestly say that the staff there are a fantastic bunch of people who all put in a lot of time and effort to provide a fabulous free service.
I will still be hanging around the support boards, and will continue to take a keen interest in how the newest service, ZetaBoards, evolves. There is no way that after 5 years I could simply go cold turkey! Who knows, maybe I will become more active or maybe I will fade away.

I’ve already told the InvisionFree staff, but had forgotton to say it to anyone that reads this.
I started my new job on monday, and as a consequence, i have a rather limited amount of spare time. I don’t even have a computer at the new house i’m living in, as there wasn’t enough space. Until I can get a laptop or something sorted out, don’t expect to see me around much.
Job is going well though, living with three cool guys, two of which i work in the same department as. The rest of the industrial placements are cool too, so it looks like it will be a great year.
Plus, i basically just make websites all day long, and get to use photoshop etc. pretty sweet deal if you ask me!

Well, i’m done with exams. They didn’t go so well though… hohum, I guess i will just have to wait and see.
In other news, I have a new house for when i start work (at least, we have a house on hold, not signed any documents or anything yet) which means i won’t see most of my friends properly for another year, as i start work quite soon after most people finish university. I can come back at weekends, as long as I have a car (otherwise it is reasonably expensive to keep on travelling back and forth - especially if i will be going out when i am back home). I am still going to stick around at university for a couple of weeks. I don’t have much else to do really, so I may as well make as much of the £900 rent count…
What else.. hmm, well i’ll be unsuspended from InvisionFree sometime today or tomorrow i think, will have to check in a minute. to be fair, it didn’t really help me all that much, as it was just frustrating to see things that I could not deal with, and also to get emails informing me that i had a PM, which i couldn’t check. Oh well…
Well, thats me out for another few weeks!

I was speaking with Brandon today, and he mentioned that IF3 was in the works. Yes, thats right, IF3.
Ok, i lie. So shoot me.
On an unrelated note, I updated the Mood Changer to now allow me to write a sentance or so about my mood, and it displays that on the image. Using PHP to create images has been pretty interesting (although i’ve only done relativly basic things with it).
