Two of the top three of Wiki's top article creators have quit in the past few days (Carlossuarrez46 and Lugnuts). Lugnuts left a note that read just like a suicide note (though it may just attention-seeking), and Carlossuarrez46 quit right after calling the whole project racist for calling him out for being a douchebag. Both were OCD to the max. Wiki really does feed off poor mental health.

Lugnuts is back only two days after "quitting". In the last 2 days they made 2000+ edits, but their note on User talk:Lugnuts (17:35, 31 March 2021 4,538 bytes +785) was suppressed, probably because it looks like troublemaking (or a dramaquit/flounce/etc.). Did anyone keep a copy?
