We are sad to announce that Doublethink has escaped the mental anguish of Hosting the Circus. The years of Hosting various boards across the Ship of Fools has been highly appreciated, and we have benefited greatly from her exacting standards.

Enjoy your freedom, Doublethink.

Many thanks, Doublethink. May the real world treat you well!

{Psssst...did you put her into the Retired Hosts/Admins Protection Program? (RHAPP)}

I hope not, but she is sans clown shoes.

I will miss you backstage, Doublethink. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and wit with us.

Uncle Pete I resigned as a result of, what turned out to be, an unresolvable difference of opinion as to one aspect of how SoF is moderated.

I would like to stay involved with the boards as a reading and posting shipmate, but I will just have to see how it goes. I'm not sure yet, whether it feels too much of an issue for me to want to continue to participate longer term.

Is the issue a private one or one which might be useful to discuss? It seems unfortunate that your many contributions would reach an end if it is something that might be sorted out.

Whatever comes to pass now, may I offer kind regards for your future, and kind regards of your contributions.

I'd like to add my thanks to Doublethink for her years of service as a Host; her experience, wit and intelligence will be missed on the Boards and upstairs in the Hosts' lounge.

Enjoy your freedom, DT, and, as they say, don't be a stranger.

DT, your inbox is full so I can't say privately how grateful I am for the great many lessons you've taught me on these boards over the years. Thank you.

I can well imagine DT encountering an issue that is hard to resolve. The rest of us have Dead Horses for issues and Hell for other people (as Jean-Paul Sartre would say) but the hosts and admins have to get on with it and each other.

DT has principles and intelligence and we've been very fortunate. I hope we'll continue to be fortunate to have her around on the Lower Deck as I've learned a lot from DT, even though it doesn't always show.

As I've observed Americans saying when they see military people passing in airports, etc, We are grateful for your service.

DT, thanks for your time and efforts as a Host of many boards (and for the time we shared as Eccles co-hosts).

Your wit and wisdom are an asset to this community. Don't be a stranger.

Thank you DT, both for your years hosting and many chats in the Cafe back in those days! (And for my avatar which I still love.)

Hope to see you around the Ship still, if it's possible.

Wot Japes sez, including Cafe and customised avatar!

Fanks!

Awwww! I rarely spend time in the Circus but I love Doublethink's input around the board. Don't leave!

Thank you Doublethink, I appreciate your presence here, and the time you have given to hosting on the Ship.

I don't usually visit the Circus, but have been very appreciative of DT's contributions, visible and invisible, across the Ship. Speaking purely selfishly, I do hope she hasn't gone forever.

Thank you, DT, for all you've given.

Q.

Thank you, DT, for always being you, for your many clear insights and good principles, for your help and support during your time as a Host. I'm sad that you are standing down. And I hope very much that you will stick around.

Doublethink, if you are still reading, I would like to thank you for your contributions here. I haven't always agreed with your POV but you have always made me think. I am sad that there is a circumstance which makes you feel you should go at this time. I hope at some point you may feel able to come back.

I wish you all the best.
