I still believe you are confusing my lack of mainspace edits with lack of activity on mainspace. I don't need to edit on mainspace to be active on there, and can easily moderate such spaces without needing to edit.

A moderator is literally defined as a mediator, something which I am very capable of doing. I spend a lot of time on the activity page of the wiki, browsing everything that takes place on forums and mainspace. As a moderator of chat, forums, and mainspace, it is one of the best places for me to be. Truth be told though, there isn't a whole lot that happens here anymore. Updates generally happen around the same time for each game (Monthly or every few months for GW2), and thus I don't generally see a whole lot that requires a giant edit, nor am I required to edit said spaces to be qualified as active. We don't have a whole lot of vandalism, but I assure you that I'm on the mainspace pages enough to find and remove spam pages if need be.

Making mainspace edits in and of itself isn't moderating. It's the basic function that makes this wiki what it is. It is not what defines a moderator position because demoting me from said job isn't removing my ability to edit. There is no rule anywhere that states being active means making mainspace edits. I am more than active in the parts of the wiki that my job requires me to be active in, it is simply that I have decided that I couldn't find any edits worth my time.

You bring up the issue that my last edit was October 27th, yet in between September 27th and October 27th I had not made a single mainspace edit, at which time none of you have had a problem with whatsoever.

You even go so far as to acknowledge that I am active posting in parts of the wiki such as forums. If the case is that I haven't dropped off the face of the earth, and you could have reached me at any single time in the last 2 months, why have you not said ONCE "Hey buddy, I think you're activity is droppin off on the mainspace. Is something up?". This is the first time I've heard of your problem with this in the last 2 months, something of which I would have gladly explained to you and fixed if it needed to without needing to arrive at this thread should you have said anything to me.

In short, you are confusing a lack of edits with lack of activity, where a lack of edits is not grounds for demotion, and that even if it was, you were free to voice your concerns to me before you felt the need to point fingers at me and yell "Demote" for such a long period of time.

Why yell demote before I'm given a chance to hear your concerns on this issue and strive to come to an honourable agreement? It's almost as if you don't want me to have a chance here, because the first time I hear about your concerns is when you are ready to get the axe.
