Okay, sorry all; that obviously wasn't supposed to go to the list. I'll now crawl under my desk and hide...

Since someone would probably think it indecorous of me to give you an on-Wiki barnstar for this, please accept this * as my own special thanks for your expressing quite succinctly the concerns that, well, many of us have apropos of Cyde...

From what I can see (looking during my lunch break, I swear!), there's a very disturbing allegation obliquely made against you? If true, I can't blame people for being upset. On the other hand, I see there's a taunting note on your talkpage from CydeWeys about you leaving. Now, people who declare "Goobye!" all the time piss me off too (see MeatballWiki), but that's just not appropriate conduct for an administrator. Cyde, I assume you're still reading the list. I've said it before and I've no doubt I'll keep on saying it as long as you're a sysop: pull your bloody head in.
