What is the big deal about Matt don't wanting to be Admin anymore? What he mostly does when he is online is hang with other people like a totally normal user :3 People overreact way to much about stuff like this.

Fair enough, he didn't want to be admin. I still thought he was a good admin. He helped me and cmk a while back... Oh well though.. Things have changed with Noobscraftia that's for sure.

Sometimes sudden change provokes a reaction. People sometimes just wonder if he left angry, or if he got kicked, .. it's a fair question. People care about other people, hence their reaction. They'd hate to see good players leave.
Mr Floris is right. It is a typical reaction in cases like this. You can see it in many big onlinegames for example in cases where communty-representatives change without announcments. Players always will fear there are potential problems in the "managment" that might endanger their playing experience (sometimes from experience like MMORPG's shutting down or reducing support/development etc. shortly after the staff was reduced).
Easy way to prevent this kind of speculations: a typical announcement that Long_Cat is stepping down for e.g. personal reasons and that he thanks the community and staff ... or that the staff thanks him for everything ... something to signal the user: "Everything is ok, don't think about it."

That isn't even limited to games and servers. Many companies and organizations always announce noticable changes in their managment/represantative staff to prevent speculations about problems among their contacts.
