Well, that's part of it. The key thing though is that I and others are
just burnt out - it's vastly more fun to be writing articles than
continually having to deal with the worst of Wikipedia day after day.
I think it's always going to be something that has a high turnover
rate, and that this isn't necessarily a bad thing - as long as we keep
replacing people when they've had enough, the current system, with
twelve arbitrators, works fine. There's just not always enough decent
people to replace a huge amount of spots - I can't help but think that
if another six or eight new arbitrators had been appointed in December
that there would have been the shitfight from hell all through this
year, as some very controversial people could've gotten up.
