I think it's remarkable that she moderated these boards as long as she did without going completely insane.  It seems inevitable for any mod as dedicated as she was.  It's not that there's anything wrong with PlaneShift that makes the forums lead to madness, it's more that people care so much about it, and that the nature of the internet allows for constant disagreements, which tend to lead to trolling, flaming, and/or inane babble like this.  I do hope that she continues her arts contributions as they are fantastic.

She will be missed. A voice of reason on the forums. A rare thing. I recall at least one point with one person's idiocy where I would have just said 'screw this, I'm out' and thats the myriad of others aside. She genuinely tried to help people understand things where others would have become frustrated and given up.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

It's odd how most of us don't really show appreciation for someone until after we realize it's too late.

Moderating forums can be a stressful job. I've moderated or adminned several small forums and still do but I can't really imagine how much work and dedication is needed to keep a huge place like this decent. For doing that job she deserves respect, which I'm sure she has always had from many people. Sadly it's also in human nature to take things for granted when we don't have to deal with them directly. hopefully this 'incident' will help people show some more respect for moderators and their tasks, then Karyuu did one last great job by resigning.

Karyuu, your work was appreciated even though that appreciation hasn't always been voiced. I'm sure that you'll keep working on this project in your own way and hopefully we'll run into eachother again, either in-game or behind the curtains ...

Neko and all the other people still responcible for keeping this place clean, your work is also appreciated a whole lot. I just wanted to take this oppertunity to show that appreciation for both past and present moderators.

I showed appreciation all the time :P Mostly by trying not to get the mods into stressful situations.
