User:Lradrama

The time has come for me to retire from Wikipedia. In the recent months leading up to this, breaks became more frequent, and now I’m ready to come to a complete stop. I have been a member of this project for nearly two years, and I have been an administrator for 11 months. I don’t want to seem like I’m feeling sorry for myself, but I put such a lot of effort into this project, which I never feel was truly appreciated. There is too much conflict here, too many arguments - no one can agree - we all seem determined to prove each other wrong…and things like that will be fatal for this project.

I have my family, I have my friends and I have my career/training. All of these must take priority over Wikipedia. At one stage, there were times when I put Wikipedia over my friends…I chose to spend time on this dratted thing rather than be with them. That is an utter disgrace, and it will not happen again. I love my family and friends with all my heart; they mean such a lot to me, and I cannot dedicate any more time to Wikipedia.

I am at drama school, training to be an actor…you may see me on your TV screens one day…but you probably won’t know, as I am not thinking of changing my stage name to Lradrama!

Goodbye everybody; and to those who continue to dedicate a large amount of their time to Wikipedia…a word of caution…don’t forget to live.

Goodbye everyone xxx
