❤ FAREWELL from MALLORY ❤

[Mallory {The Boss}]

Dear KITG,

The day has finally come... after six long years, I'm leaving the site.

Donation time has always been excruciatingly frustrating, but this

year has been exceptionally bad: I can never get answers from 

Dvhour because he is never around. I've been carrying the site for

four years now, doing 95% of the work and all I ask of Dvhour is for

him to handle the whole donation headache, but every year, I can

never reach him to get answers on how we're doing. We were supposed

to talk this weekend to figure out what to do with the site from here,

but as usual, he was not around and it is IMPOSSIBLE to get an answer

out of him. I have reached the end of my patience.

Even worse, only 56 people donated this year, with only 5 days left

before the deadline. 56 out of 8000 members!! Every year, we get

at least 100 loyal members to keep this site going, and even that is

pathetic, considering we have 8000 members. But, this...this is an

all-time low. I can't tell you how disheartening this feels to me. With

all the time and energy I put into this place, it is beyond insulting.

If only 56 people think this site, and my work, is not even worth a few

dollars, why the fuck are we here?? This tells me that it is time to go.

Whether or not you make the deadline, I am done here. I want to thank

all who donated the past five years and kept us online. I want to thank

all who shared their wonderful videos and pictures and stories because

we couldn't exist without your contributions. I want to thank the core

of the community, the dedicated who made this site a family...it was

you that I stayed for to make this site a HOME. And as utterly frustrated 

as I am right now with him, I want to thank Dvhour for trusting me to

run the site...I had some wonderful experiences because of it, and there

may be a couple more in the works ;) But most of all, I want to thank all

of you who shared your experiences and stories and lives...your hearts

and souls, with me...I stayed this long because of you.

I will leave this open for a week, until I leave. Please feel free to leave

any hellos or goodbyes, any final thoughts, good or bad...or say hi on

chat. I don't want this to be a somber last week...I want to celebrate 

it, so I will be answering any last questions and sharing my thoughts on

blogs, discussions, stories, etc. Let's make it a happy final week :)

DEAR KITG: I want you to know that I wrote this post in a state of extreme frustration. Shortly after,

DV and I had several talks about the post and the site and we are finally in a good place now. We're

like an old married couple - we have disagreements and even fights, but ultimately, we have mutual

love and adoration for each other. My words above painted him as the bad guy. What I did not know

at the time were the REASONS why he wasn't around: 12-hour shifts at work, evening functions for

work, feeling unwell with severe allergies and a new increasingly painful arm injury. Top it off with

the news that his mother has cancer :( Learning about all of this overwhelming stress he's been under,

I felt like shit. I regret my words above, written in haste. And this ain't no fucking damage control...

this is my HEART. I love him dearly and I thank him from the heart for this wonderful journey ❤

Since there is no like button on this, consider this a like. Great sentiment, Mallory.

The mobile site allows likes. I of course liked it and will miss Mallory.

It's been years since I last posted here and I didn't expect this community to make it this far, to be perfectly honest.. Can't be easy running a site like this for this long... Good luck !
