Hello everyone.
I've been here an awfully long time, haven't I? A very, very long time. I first inherited Uboachan way back in 2011, 14 years ago now, and I began carrying forward Sushichan a few years after that. And it's been fun. I got to befriend and even meet some of you. Some became IRL friends. I even dated a few of my imageboard users. If it weren't for these imageboards, I am really not sure where my life would be right now.
But, over time, I changed, as people do. I am a very different person than when I started out here. Very different. And so, it's been kind of hard for me actually, to keep the act going for this long. In a lot of ways I don't really see eye-to-eye with my userbase the way I did in the past. And though I still love visiting, and my position is kind of flattering, I have had the nagging feeling for a long time now that I am not really the right person for the job anymore.
No, I am not really the kind of person anymore, who ought to be running an imageboard. As much as I love these sites and want them to survive, being the owner of two imageboards is in some ways a burden on my current persona. It feels like I have to split myself down the middle, to keep running these sites. And with the way things are going in the world, and in my personal life, I am about to have other problems to worry about.
So, I am passing the torch on Uboachan and Sushichan, just as they came to me in the past. The sites will live on, but I will not be at the helm. That role will go to long-time friend and board user Balthasar, also known as Seagal. I really think that he is the best man for the job. In the coming months, I will be transferring everything to another server under his control. I will stay on as a user and tech consultant, hanging out now and then, and helping with backend issues as Seagal gets the feel of things. And, as the boards' owner, I will retire and move on to other things.
It has been an honor. Thanks for everything.
