If you knew Maxy (Aka: Sakura-chan) and Doronin, you knew that they were two of the greatest patrons the MPSB / G.com / AX, and for a very short time, the MSPBZ has ever known. In their final goodbye posts at AnimeX, they make their last stand in grand fashion...

Maxy:
Okay, this'll probably be the last post you'll ever see me make, but I have to say that I've finally reached the end of my patience with this site. However, there are some grievances I'd like to put out into the open for others to see. Call it pulling a Wag! if you will.
First of all, Lonewolf/Amuro/Ben, I respect your work so don't assume this is a flame. I've been around AnimeX since the beginning, so I've seen its ups and downs and everything in between. Yet, as happy as I was with the "honor" of becoming a moderator, I kind of had the feeling early on that I'll probably end up writing this. Honestly, this forum has potential to be great, at least that's what I always felt, but the way it's run needs work. It's gotten to the point where the being a moderator is no longer a privilege, but a "prize" that's seemingly thrown out to anyone who has been a member long enough.
I've sucked it in, I did what I could, and I'm being a whiny bitch right now because I'm sick of it. The respect that mods/admins have for each other in SEELE? It doesn't bloody exist.
Oh, wait, I take that back. It only exists if you agree with the majority! Any and all opinions are acknowledged only if they're in the same line of thought as say, Gredival, Cass, or Kaji, for example. If you make a suggestion, you're putting yourself in the line of fire for disagreements; which is natural. However, when a person disagrees with you then does a flipflop because someone who is "popular" among the group happens to side with you. Well now, I'm sure you all can come to that conclusion on your own.
*gasp* So many paragraphs and not one emoticon, and it's SAKURA-CHAN that is posting!
The WHOLE F*****G WORLD is going to end!
Excuse me, but I have a brain, and I do act serious when I have to. I cannot stand how you people treat me like I'm some imbecile because I happen to enjoy being optimistic. Oh, wow, I'm losing my "innocence" because I happen to cuss and feel anger like normal people. THANK YOU for pointing that out to me everytime I talk to you, Tendie. I mean, I've only known you for almost two years, right? I can't exactly grow up and MATURE like everyone else does.
And what's the point of all this? Well, as Malakh so intelligently pointed out in our new "new mod" thread, the number of people in our staff is swelling, but there's no actual need for them. Although it's been denied, I am utterly useless with this title and I feel that there is no longer any need for me around. Along with this, and the ill treatment I've been feeling as pointed out above, I've decided to call it quits for this site. As it is, I'm only kept around for the amusement of the rest of the staff, or as some graphics whore because I actually have the patience to deal with those trivial things.
I hope that the rest of the mods will learn to loosen up a bit with how they run this board. The members are here to enjoy themselves, not to be ruled by aloof elitists who don't give a damn to anyone that doesn't fit their ideal mold.
With that, Ben, do what you want to my account; keep me, ban me, delete me, whatever. I'm sick of this site and the way I'm treated and I never want to see this board, or practically anyone associated with it, ever again.

Godspeed Maxy!
And as a man of my honor, I am joining Maxy. However, I am standing watch to make sure that this thread isn't closed or tampered with and is actually heard before I go again. I too came back hoping to make a difference but once again I have felt ignored since early on my ideas get shot down immediately as they did a year ago. I have nothing against AX personally, but with so many admins and still being more or less unnoticed, I feel I am no longer needed.
Maxy's voice must be heard.
