As you can see by my user contributions page, I haven't edited in a number of months. It's nice to see that a few of my ideas have taken off, however, two factors have largely contributed to a great deal of frustration with this project, thus I am making my last edit for an indefinite amount of time.
- The complete ignorance of a small number of contributors. (Rest assured that I mean a very small number of the contributors that participate in Wikipedia, and if you're here reading this, you likely aren't one of them.) It's both very disappointing and frustrating to see repeated instances of people not RTFA before removing a link or content. I do realize that I could likely replace the old content (which is why I classify my departure as an indefinite and not permanent one), but I'd rather take some more time to chill out. Plus...
- I don't feel like licensing anything under the GFDL anymore. I volunteered my time to write articles so that other people can place ads galore around them and profit? That doesn't make sense to me. If I do this for nothing, I expect others to be mirroring the content for nothing. I can live with ads if they're an absolute necessity to keep these servers online and if they are removed at a break-even point, but it's blantantly obvious by the search engine optimization and text ads that they see a get-rich-quick scheme in exploiting the contributions of hard-working people who do this for nothing.
Aside from this, however, the experience has been nothing but positive. Au revoir. -- Rdash (t) 14:51, Dec 14, 2004 (UTC)
