And in the end, I don't know why you stepped down that fast without testing the idea first, because that can make our suggestions worthless if others pay attention to what happened now. It is like we are rushing things. The last thing we intended to do was to rush this. Right from the beginning of this, we three agreed on waiting to step down until we had brought the news to you about our predicament with this discussion so we could explain ourselves and you people get to make an input in this.

As for your second point, it is like Blue said: we had an epiphany about our situation. We realized that being put in such a position of power with everyone else stripped of their rights so we could pass judgment on others alone was not something we were comfortable with. I can honestly say that Blue and I had our freakouts and breakdowns because of this, and what it meant for us was not something we agreed could tolerate in the long run. In other words, we do not want to have this position as we first realized what it meant after the decision was made.

Actually Ultra, this is something that you should've realized from the beginning. But even though, if you have made a vote to keep up your Bureacurat rights, it would be helpful for us. Because if Blue in case was not on the wiki, you're an easy friend to contact and give users rights or lapse them when we open up a request. You don't have to say word on behalf of us, but lend us a hand. I know I messed up, and I am so sorry for that. I just did not realize what this position involved until after I got it. I thought I understood it, but it was first after that I got it that I saw what changes was wrought. It is things like that I fail to realize in complex situations, and is another reason why I can't live with all that power. Even so, it would not be fair to keep my Bureacurat rights; I got it from a decision, and if people agree it should be overturned, then it is only fair that I give them back (however not before I can fix the damage that has been done).
