Life is full of ups and downs, right?! I had still been on a high from meeting up with clan members Tazzly and Lacivious IRL, then yesterday Tazzly stepped down as officer, and on the same day CrazyGoatVapes stepped down as leader. Despite insisting that I did not want this role, here I am, now the leader of Australia Clan.
I’ve spent most of my life designing and running online communities and I LOVE this one, but I’m not cut out for WAR and all the dramas and strategising that come along with it. Personally I’ve been hyper aware that this is all by design though, by the game devs. I’ve never been into politics, which has helped me to find more peace, but I can understand and sympathise with those who choose to play that game.
It’s a new day. This morning I’ve been trying to focus on the positives of this situation. The biggest relief for me is that I can confidently say that I won’t be stepping down as officer, nor will I entertain the thought of leaving the clan to join another one. I’ve put some work into growing this community and I’m super glad and excited to continue to do so.
I’m still spinning, but with help from Tazzly I intend to find a new leader for our clan. I refuse to put leadership up for a vote (because voting is political). It’s just not how I roll. I’ll at the very least ask the clan for their input on who they think should be leader, or if anyone in the clan is interested in the role. Their input will be taken into consideration.
