Following my suggestion that I'd like to enforce rules in addition to the site-wide rules, some of you had expressed being very much against it. After reading your replies, I have reconsidered.
I am not interested in introducing a schism in the community, and was further persuaded when I heard of the disappointment of some current readers. I have reversed all moderator bans of users to the sub.
I'd rather be on mutually respectful terms with my fans. Thanks for your patience.

Welcome to the club @stonetoss!
It isn't easy around here but these goats are all lovable teddy bears underneath.
Except for @moe. I hate that guy.

Abandoned issues?

Broken heart yeah. I'm only half the man without my @moe.

Kinda miss having all three of you around. At least you haven't burnt out completely quite yet, although you seemed a bit rough a while back.

I've been burnt out countless times over the years. Severely. I'm sure it was easy to notice. Wasn't my best.
I don't know any software project as large as Voat being run by a single person, then add in the highs and lows of the community aspect and I'm just thankful I haven't dropped dead at various moments. No lie.
This reminds me of the Pao days when working for 72+ hours straight was not uncommon.
I miss @DanielFlamino a lot as well. He was fun.

That's for the hard work. We may not say it often enough, but we do appreciate you. If you're even in so cal, I'll buy you a round of golf.
