On Sept 24 I stepped down as Alpha of WerewolvesAtHeart and chose sugarpoultry to replace me. I'll stay on as a moderator for now, but I'm not sure for how long. To see current group leadership, see the "Admins" box a bit down the page on the right here werewolvesatheart.deviantart.c… .
I stepped down for a several reasons, these are the main ones.
First, I founded the group nearly a year ago, and the it's really seen a lot of success. I wanted to make it the best werewolf group on dA, and thanks to you great members, I really feel like it is! At this point though, I feel like I've done everything I can for the group and have nothing else to offer; it's time to move on.
Second, I guess I'm at a time in my life where priorities and focuses need to shift around to other things. I'm feeling very unmotivated for anything in life really, and need time to get out and try other things. I'm trying to figure out where I want to go and what I want to do, and this is one step I needed to take with that. I've been through something like this before back on The Pack forums though, so who knows. Maybe nothing will change.
Third, I'm starting to feel burnt out on dA and on many aspects of the internet in general and will probably also be spending a lot less time here for a while. Also, as much as I love and constantly obsess about werewolves, other areas of my life are suffering because of it, and no matter how much I want it I'll never become one so might as well at least continue with reality.
All in all, I really had a great time running the group and I loved doing it! This is kind of a bittersweet thing, but it needs to happen.
TL;DR: I stepped down as WWh Alpha because I felt it was time and it's a bittersweet experience.
