It's summer, and I have nothing better to do.

So that means I'm going to post on this blog a little.  As many of you know, I retired from staff almost a year ago.  I did enjoy being an administrator, and helping people will always be important to me, but it was just bad timing.  That fall semester, I ended up not sleeping Sunday through Wednesday every week.  Have you ever tried only sleeping three days a week? It's not pretty.  It affected my grades and my mental health, but I had to continue working to afford rent and school in the first place.  I was in unsafe conditions at work too, so that didn't help.  They left a 20-year-old girl working by herself from 10 PM to 6 AM in a gas station... even after someone tried to commit suicide in the store and I pleaded with them to change my shift or give me a partner.  I'm not spewing all of this for pity, but just wanted to give you a quick run down of why I was in no way equipped to help run a website for those months.  I stepped down as soon as I realized I wouldn't have the time or sanity for it.

So now that that's out of the way, I'm going to preface this post by saying that the attitude of the blog may be changing some.  When the blog started, it was during the "blog craze" wherein everyone had drama-related blogs inspires by Stormgaze.  I didn't mind giving my opinions on some stronger subjects, but I would never be rude about it.  Once I became staff, whenever the blog did revive, it was mostly a cool Wolf Haven updates page.  We'd show off newly uploaded customs, chat about neat packs, and so on.  As I am no longer staff and I don't feel the need to uphold standards that may reflect back upon the site, my writing is going to revert to being a little more controversial.  I still consider myself professional, and while there are a lot of things I could talk about, I do know where to draw the line.  Wolf Haven has been a huge part of my life, and I have no intentions of slandering the website.

From the Terms of Service:

2K. Actions off-site may result in on-site punishments if they are linked to Wolf-Haven. This includes actions such as: Advertising on other websites without permission, making slanderous comments in regards to Wolf-Haven or posting content that may damage the reputation of Wolf-Haven.

So before you go and get too excited, I'm not gonna explode into a major asshat. *salutes and says, "Major Asshat"* My apologies for the poorly timed HIMYM joke. ): I do respect the rules of the site.  I don't want to harass anybody.  But there are a lot of things I'd like to discuss in the future of this blog.  Whether or not I name names, I have not decided.  I will not attack anybody.  That is not who I am.  But when the point-blank actions of somebody speak negatively of themselves, that is not my problem.

For right now, I am removing the other blog authors.  Thank you to Sergeant, Hylothe, and Akakios for wanting to participate and help out before when I hired people.  I know many others applied, but grammar is really important to me and this was the team I trusted.  If any of you would like to continue posting on the blog now that I am bringing it back, or if anyone else is interested in becoming a part of it, feel free to contact me.  No requirements, but I'd like you to try to post once a week, even if it's just pretty custom stuff and showcasing new forum threads. :)

I'll end this post here, even though I could probably ramble forever.  Expect to see a new post as soon as tomorrow or the day after.  I might also mess with the layout some.  I like new looks to reflect new vibes, but we'll see how much effort I actually put into this.
