Default Stepping Down...

It is with regret that I must inform the members of DiscoMusic.com that NickNack aka Ronald "Nicky" Nicholson is resigning from his duties as forum moderator effective immediately. Despite my wanting to have him stay I must respect his decision.

I would like to thank Nicky for all the hard work he put into moderating, but more importantly for being a good friend and someone who always went above and beyond to help others and see both sides of everything. Nicky will still be amongt us just not in the capacity of moderator. Thanks Nicky!

I also hate to see Nicky go. He has done a fine job in moderating the forums. Good luck to you Nicky and we hope to hear from you with your expert input.

Nicky :(
I know it must have been a lot of work. I certainly don't envy the work you and Bernie were steeped in. Balancing free speech while maintaining at least some civility is hard.
Well, I hope you can handle the work load Bernie.
Nicky, I better see your ass posting responses and starting topics like a nut since you've decided to step down. :lol:

That's bad news, as Nicky is a good moderator and often a voice of reason. Good luck from this side of the pond, mate.

Ditto. Your comments and style made me, as a newbie, particularly comfortable here. All the best in all of your endeavours!

That was bad news and good news, good news being he's not gone for good, right? Maybe Nicky will now consider posting a list of his all-time faves we've been wanting to read for ages and ages and ages... - so, how about it, Nicky?

I am also new here but in my short period as a member I always respected his comments and his decisions and immediately noticed he was an excellent moderator.

He'll be missed as moderator.

There's actually a bright side to this.

Now Nicky will have more time to work on his mix cd.

Sorry to see you step down, Nicky. But I think I understand why.

Things just ain't the same, are they? :o
