Well, I wish it hadn't come to this. But I've been working a lot more, and other things have been taking up more and more of my time. I've discussed it at length with my roommate, too. And my Neon has been taking back more of my interests.
In the end, I've decided that the responsibility of managing Club-S12 is too great at this time, and I am moving on.
I'm not giving up my S12's. I'm just stepping down and leaving the task of managing the site to someone else. I know my choice is correct.
Colin Masterson will be taking over as Site Administrator, and will manage all staff and policies. He's worked hard to keep things on par here, and I know that he's more than willing to handle the job. I'm pretty sure he will be picking new staff members, or at least some new ones, so probably you will see some changes in the staff roster. He's also expressed an interest in changing the look and feel of the forum, so it should be interesting to see what happens.
Sterling is still very interested in cleaning up details on the forum.... straightening out the information, reorganizing the sections, and filling in the information gaps where needed. He's done a lot over the last six months, and I'm sure he'll continue to do so in the future.
I've been with Club-S12 since the beginning, and I had hoped to continue with it for some time, but it's just not in the cards at this time.
It's been fun, and definitely productive. I'm sorry to leave it sooner than I planned, but I know it's in good hands.

New Management
my reign or torment begins!
haha dont go completly away keep trying to post a little or else the s12 bug will leave
Fuck it's about time.......
J/k wish you the best in where ever the neon takes you you'll be back again the s12 runs in your blood...
s12 love man.
Arro, as long as you stick around on here, all will work out in time.
Colin, grats. I think you'll take us to a new level, honestly. Your car's been featured in magazines, been in shows, and had 2 different engines with a 3rd on the way... I trust you to take us the right direction. I think you were the right choice.
Although....it is April fools day.
April fools?

i wish it was a joke,,, damnit jason that really pisses me off we put all this work into this club and you just walk out on me and the rest of us... whatever dude if that damn riced out neon really sways you so much more then the s12 then i guess we'll survive just fine without you... anyways colin i need to pm me so i can get your phone number so we can talk about what steps we need to take to change the managment as i have all the passwords and important info of this frum as well..
Wow man. I actually get the feeling this is true. No posts showing up on the mainpage from the admin section that show up unavailable when clicked ATM, I'd think there would be one to let the admins know whats going on if it were a joke......
Like i said, Colin will be a great admin, and since hes already "co-admin" along with you, Bart, I cant imagine much will change for the bad.
is this an april fools joke?
Hahah Bart you made it all worth while....
APRIL FOOLS! LOL
Okay so some of you suspected, one of you figured it out, right off the bat. Others outhought yourself, and bothered to second guess...
Hahaha so anyways the cat's out of the bag. I ain't goin' nowhere. I'm glad nobody sent me off with a "good riddance" (at least not seriously).
I even changed the Site Administrator group mask to say "Members" like everyone else's
LOL Bart, oh Bart! Dude you should know better! OMG I just about lost my lungs from laughin' when I saw your post AFTER I let you know it was a joke... WOW you must be pretty embarassed haha.
The "ricey" Neon he's referring to:
lol apparently Sterling isn't the only one who wants to clown on it, but lemme tell you, it will outhandle ANY S12, and is faster than most of them, too... probably about on-par with an SE. It's nothing to shy at. Yeah, I have a CF hood... and fuck, even have a CF GAS LID. That's right, the gas door is made of a sheet of real carbon fiber. Yeah, the car's a bit "ebay" if you get me, but I like the way it looks, I like the way it drives, and it's a lot of fun.
BUT....
It will NEVER be an S12, which will ALWAYS be my first love. ALWAYS. FOREVER. I don't care that we have fuckin' camber problems with our IRS models, or that Nissan electronics are whacky as fuck.... I love the way our cars look, and how they feel to drive... and our amazing engine swap options... and our nitche quality.
this thread is now fail worthy wtf stupid april fools day jokes lol good one J....
Yeah the fact that there was no mod action is more of a sign that it was a hoax. we all talk so having something this big not be talked about in the mod section is unlikely...
But even I second guessed it seeing as I was away for a couple days...
Arroahh negative i added that post to make it seem more real after i talked to you dumbass...lol
LOL Bart, oh Bart! Dude you should know better! OMG I just about lost my lungs from laughin' when I saw your post AFTER I let you know it was a joke... WOW you must be pretty embarassed haha.
bartc_jahh negative i added that post to make it seem more real after i talked to you dumbass...lolwow, well ether way, you guys had me going... (that and teh 1st totally slipped my mind)
well played, glad to hear your not going anywhere arro
I also thought it was an April fools joke even though your story was so convincing.... Then I did notice that your thing said "members" and that was the kicker that made me thing it really was legit.
Good Job
ArroAPRIL FOOLS! LOL
Arro you're an evil man. lol.
oh.. damn.. oh..
well goodbye and good luck arro
and welcome back arro.. lol
ArroAPRIL FOOLS! LOLWait....what? So you're not leaving....damn!
J/K
Shouldn't tease Colin like that
Bart and I were actually talking the other day that none of the original old fart gang would ever leave....so you actually had me fooled for a sec
I'm glad I picked up on this a day late to figure out what's really going on. I had all kinds of ideas about how it was all gonna change into something different, Obama style, and I'm glad it's not. Way to go you April fool
unfortunately, i believed it, and all kinds of questions ran through my mind. but, fortunately, i read this a day late so i found out about the joke imediately and wasnt stuck in limbo, questioning the 'new direction' the club was going. well played good sirs!
Yes the club will not be going in a new direction, but no, I do not compare the way it's run now to the opposite of Obama, which would be Bush
Dang, I know I'm late in responding but I was so planning my overhaul. It was gonna be totalitarian. I was like, sweet, my way. What will I have done.
Damn you certainly are a bush character Arro .... lol
...and pukka with the 1 year + bump!
I am going to lock this...if someone wants it unlocked let me know...but it was just after all an april fools joke.
