User blog:Flamefang/Taking a Short Break

Hey guys, as you can see by the title of this blog: I'm going to be taking a short break. Before you start commenting, note that this isn't due to behavior on the wiki and I don't intend for it to send any kind of motivational or demotivational message. All I'm doing is taking a short break from wiki affairs to get other things sorted out both online and in real life. Also, I'm not in any trouble, I just need to spend time around my family who's going to be here for Christmas and to work on a forum RP I joined recently alongside Bach. This break should be relatively short, between 3 and 6 days, and when I return I'll be giving you all a nice big fat update blog explaining where your administration and I intend to go with things in the future.

Also, this isn't to say that I'll be entirely gone. I will still be on Skype and if anyone has questions or concerns they may feel absolutely free to contact me. I may also check in on the wiki from time to time. To my fellow DnD/Activities department members: I'll be watching the Google Docs and providing any kind of info you need. I doubt I'll need any kind of substitute to take my place as I will be present on Skype and easily contactable while Bach and Lott are more than capable of handling things on their own, I think.

So, while I'm gone, there is one thing that I'd like you, as a community, to do that I think will really help us along in the future. I'm going to be posting a "Feedback" page in a few minutes which will be entirely blank besides a few short instructions on the top. Now, I've asked for feedback many times in the past and gotten virtually nothing in response. What I'm asking for here, is for you to come forward, one and all, and tell us how you think we're doing. You know, like one of those signs on the back of large corporate vehicles that say "How is my driving?". I don't care how new you are to the wiki, and nor do I care how old you are. There is no need to be intimidated, frightened, or reluctant to comment on this page. I don't care whether the feedback is overwhelmingly positive, or similarly negative. I don't care if it consists of a single letter or nothing more than a smiley face. I'd just like to hear something back from the community so that when I return, I can better see where we need to go in the future.

I've seen a lot of improvements over the past week or so. Do what I've asked, and I think we can do even better. :)

See you guys, and happy holidays!
