I'm semi-retiring

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

You may have known me, TimTurner, very well during my two months on this forum.  Thanks to shifts in my life I'm semi-retiring.  But first let me say that this forum was pretty unique, it was an experience I found unusual.  I found an outlet for my opinionated views.  I found a place filled with people obsessed with politics.  It was a pretty interesting experience.  It was different from what I was used to at Wikia.  I almost never talked about politics there.

I articulated my political leanings during my two months here.  I was progressive on economics, dovish, almost a partisan Democrat on an array of things, and leaned to the right on social issues (fittingly for a Populist).  Populists are almost unicorns here - you don't see them so much.  I was, in short, and oddball, an user with quirks few other users had.  I never cursed at anyone, I never made any real enemies, I rarely got mad with anyone, yet people generally groaned at my jokes (and I made a lot of them).  I was once called one of the nicest guys here.

In Atlasia, after being recruited by Windjammer, I found myself registered first in Wisconsin then in Texas, identifying as a moderate Laborite.  I was in the middle of an Assembly run when the realization hit me I could not go on.  I hope the best that Labor will get in the Assembly in the ballot.

I found it interesting chatting politics on here for two months.  I made many friends, created few enemies, set up over 5,000 posts, and created 20 polls.  Like I said before, interesting.  Anyway, this is TimTurner, the Atlas poster who no one understands, and at 3:00 A.M tomorrow I go into semi-retirement.

Regarding the 'atlas poster who no one understands' line that's a carry over from Wikia.  That's how I introduced myself in chat.
