 Best, --'''[[User:Zippy|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 21:33, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
+:Hi, Zippy. I'll go ahead and answer these questions now.
+:#My thought process was largely made up of cognitive distortions and overconfidence. It was largely the Dunning-Kruger effect. I obviously did not consider that I was a rookie sysadmin and should not have been admining a site that large, or even of medium size. For that, I can only be sorry.
+:#I quickly returned because I was asked to deal with various things relating to the project and asked to handle an emergency threatening life by Globe, and I just figured that I was trusted enough to rejoin the project, if I was asked to deal with such a heavy topic. I think I just needed a short break. My trust may not have been fully recovered, but I personally just needed a week's break.
+:#Mainly improvements to the organization, seeking donations, the Safety side of things, etc.
+:#I think the board could improve in telling its advisors about its discussions, letting the experts advise them sometimes, and staying out of low-level governance of the community.
+:#I think that many things could be improved in terms of procedure, for example, a formal safety action policy.
+:Thanks for asking me these questions! [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 23:41, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
