User blog:ElectricFire 169/The Times They Are A-Changing

As most of you are aware, JustJackBros is retired. This wasn't a surpise for any of us; he had been stating fo a while his desie to move on to other things.

In my opinion, his departure marks the end of an era in VenturianTale fandom, As it did when Michael left in February.

Now that I think of it, how many of the original admins on the title page are still actually on the wiki? It seems as if now we've crossed the tipping point in tems of how many are still here.

And it's not just them; I can think of a few who should've been admins who weren't given the oppotunity. They ae surely the worst possible loss to the wiki; the loss of unfulfilled potential.

All this, combined with the recent vandalism of the Fandom Wiki, makes for Dark Times for the Wiki.

I wish the best to whatever venture Jack decides to persue in his... whateve he does now. I'm sure that he'll do good, as he does with eveything else.

I think we all owe Jack, not just as the writer of some of the best fics this wiki has ever seen, but also as a good friend and a helper. Jack was the person who showed me the ropes and I'm eternally grateful for that. I'd always hoped I'd be able to do a collab with him (or at least ask him to do some writing for Business Unusual), but I guess that's not gonna happen now.

I'm sure that he might drop in some time and check up on the wiki, see how it's doing.

Whatever he does now, he's left us with a legacy.

See you round, Jack. Maybe... We will see you... next time.

Until then... Venture on.
