Im not afraid to speak the truth. Even if he is leaving, i bet he will come back some point. I hate when goodbyes are happy stuff about someone who did something good.
He didn't give two f about it anymore because everyone started to think his opinion was stupid and was completely irrelevant. When another person, well-known to the site, said the SAME EXACT THING he said, they were praised. Just because he wasn't part of the circle jerk the mod team had doesn't mean he was a bad mod.
For all of you that say he was good mod that stayed a really long time despite everything : He was not good mod. After people complained, he went low and started doing nothing. Then after 2-3 months he started doing few stuff, but so low no one will ever complain about him again.
Basically tip for other mods .If you want to stay longer - Keep low and don't care about the community. Just try not to get in their sight and no one will hate you.
