And then also some sentences from me (I totally agree with the previous speakers):
These mind-droppings ala "I was here" don't help anyone on the forum.
If you really want to talk about your state of mind, you could open a thread in the community section telling us your story about your trouble and joy with Tetration, and *there* you could point out how many times you asked yourself "why".
Summarizing, a rule for you would be:
If you don't have to say anything (meaningful, important, valuable, inspiring, etc) then don't say it!
Also you can ask yourself the question: how true is my involvement with Tetration? Do I just want to drop smart comments on every old thread I find, or do I want to *understand* what was discussed in the thread and what people explain to me (and accordingly learn the prerequisites like formal power series, holomorphic functions, complex dynamics) and thus being able to clarify stuff for myself, for others and to contribute.
Ok, and to answer your original question: I withdraw super moderator rights from GFR, because a) he never asked for it and b) it's quite dangerous if you're not used to it (you can easily edit someone else's post unintentionally, because you think it's a quote inside your own post - you know, with long and nested quotes... and I think something similar even happened) and c) I didn't see him on the forum anymore.
