Okay, there were a total of *79* de-sysoppings
this year. I understand
three were because of compromising, and several were voluntary, but this
is pitiful, and *we can do better*. If people on here want to be danged
drama queens, they should just take it to email with the users involved.
This, again, is pitiful. We've got to stop acting like this and BUILD
THE ENCYCLOPEDIA. Thank you.

How many of those were because of bad admins though? Sometimes, an admin
needs a break from seeing extra buttons they no longer want to be dealing
with, so will request to be desysopped. I don't see that as a problem.
Bad admins of course are a problem, and so are compromised accounts. Less of
that next year of course, but admins can resign whenever they wish - it
isn't a problem at all.
Of course I understand the compromising and the bad admins, but that is
just about half of the total of de-sysoppings. Abut 25% were the user
being tired of it, and the rest was pure drama, which is why I think
this is pitiful.
