Gears! Please don't retire. Drama is drama. Just stay out of it. Please! RedThunder 21:02, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Keep in touch RT. Gears of War 2 21:03, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
I, too, second the motion that you don't retire, just avoid drama and work on what you like to work on. Useight (talk) 21:08, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Gimme one good reason should stay. (RIP Jeff) Gears of War 2 21:20, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Here's more than one:
  • It's possible to stay away from drama
  • You have other editors who still support you
  • You will be a good admin in the future
  • You can take a break instead of leaving
  • Try adopting users and helping them out, it avoids drama
  • We could always use more articles

You see, yesterday, I learned the hard way that I would have never been an admin, even though I have a freakshly huge edit count. People are simply against most of my abitions(not like being an admin). Also, I'm like 12! I need to focus on middle school and then getting into a High School. People like Keeper 76 and Metros just steem me up, and thus, one day, I would have cursed some one out again and then wouldve been blocked. I'm glad 4 people support me but other than that, hell I screwed.(RIP Jeff) Gears of War 2 21:30, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Retired

If you're retired, that's all well and good - you do what you have to. But one cannot have their talk page protected and still continue to edit. Further editing will result in your talk page being unprotected. This is not an encouragement to stay retired or to unretire - it's just the way it is. Since you obviously can't respond here, and can't respond at my talk page without technically breaking this restriction, I'll simply assume you've acknowledged this. –xeno (talk) 22:10, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
