    I just wanted to get a note in here to explain why I am stepping down as the Lead of Ares. I am so glad that Sammy/Adster/Kerry gave me the opportunity to revamp Ares this go around, and get this thing going. I'm glad it is a unique ship-based simming world instead of the "normal" one-crew based. I am glad we have some people who are eager to write, new and old to UFP RP. I am glad that, even when I spit not-so-nice words in administrative discussions, FEO and others are forgiving and let me circle back on my grumpy Caymen-ness.

    I would blame my age, but based on some data from Three I'm not that much older than the averages. Wink

    So my reasons are that I just don't have the energy at this time to drive this forward. And we need someone in the Lead position to not only be a good writer and creative thinker, but someone who can drive this forward. Some good suggestions were put into this thread, and the next leader can start to put those into motion.

    Bring your creativity, bring your drive, and then sustain that. The next leader can ensure that this Ares 2.0 (if you'll allow me the lame nomenclature) can really succeed and be awesomer. Yes, awesomer and funner should be words!

    I'll still be around, and I'm trying to decide if and how I can keep writing in Ares. More to come on that. Thanks to everyone involved thus far!

    Thank you Caymen for what you done, I know how it can be (and was) difficult sometimes.
    I hope to see you again on Ares Smile

    This doesn't mean you can fade away now... so I hope this means you can spend more time enjoying the things that do bring you joy. Smile

    I'm sad to see you go! You've been a great drive and great writer in the days i was with the August and the Ares is a great legacy to leave begind. I would be very sad to see it wither and die, and i hope someone will pick up the baton from you. I'd do it myself but i fear i haven't enough conficence i can fit your shoes so to speak.

    Again a great thank you for all you've done!
