Deepest apologies

Lo_Poly

Unidentified bogie
Hi all,

I was drawn to take a look around after I heard TRS2009 came out. A lot has changed.

I thought that, while I was at it, I should issue a long, long overdue apology to the community for the awful behavior I repeatedly displayed.

I understand how much of a jerk I was to users and moderators. To those I was rude to, to those I insulted, to those I completely disrespected, I'm sorry. I was very ignorant, and I am sorry for not listening to your advice, and when you tried to point me in the right direction, I am sorry for treating you like rubbish. I've learned from my mistakes and will try my best to not act in such a way ever again.

To some users like UnNerved, I am honest about the fact that the vicious emails you received were a result of my computer getting infected with multiple trojans/backdoors. Still, it's technically my fault (for browsing like a moron), so I am sorry about that. I would also like to apologize to users like GP-38-2 for the rude, inappropriate PMs I sent. I was very upset at the time and I did not mean anything that I said in those messages. I also owe apologies to the moderators and to the IRC users. A lot of the time I would cause large upsets in chat, but I meant most the actions with good intention. To the moderators, I regret making a lot of you pull your hair out in frustration because of my antics. I'm incredibly sorry and I hope you will accept my apology.

I do realize how much of an idiot I was. Looking back on my older posts makes me cringe. Really, it does. Only now do I truly realize how stupid I was acting (like a 7 year old, maybe). I could say that a lot of the behavior stemmed from my case of Aspergers, but that would only be making excuses. Nevertheless, I am not good with being social.

Not sure what I else I can say.

Cheers.
 
Thank you very much for the apology. We will try to help you to be social as much as possible now that we know a bit more of your background.

PM me if you need anything.
 
Still no change in the forums

Actually, I disagree, the forums have got worse over time, but blame some users that do not get the hints that they aren't welcome.
Lo_Poly, some recent users who have decided to sturr up a lot of trouble and they are the ones to be looking out for (PM for details).

Thanks. Although I don't really plan on coming back, I was just saying sorry.

Yeah, I definitely see that, there's quite a few posts. Boco also referred to something transpiring in the forums (although I am unsure of what).
 
Welcome home Lo_Poly!

I hope to see you more(I remember your CMP Shots thread :P)! If you ever want to talk, my AIM/Y! addy is available in my profile. Don't PM me, I don't use it anymore(It takes time :P). Anywas, you'll be glad to hear that there are some new contents as well! And, yes, there are some rookies here, so you might want to keep on your toes until things have settled. Anyways, glad to have you back!

Hi Lo_Poly,

Everyone makes mistakes including me, we're only human afterall, I sometimes have difficulty expressing myself as I have social anxiety disorder and OCD.

PM me if you should ever want to have a talk, and remember any mature person in this forum will give you a second chance, a few will not but that's what the ignore list is for!

Regards,

Lorin:wave:
 
Hi Lo_Poly, good to hear from you again.

The forums have changed up a bit, to be sure, since you left, but most of the vets (and a few yearlings like me :hehe:) you probably remember are still here. Should you ever wish to come back (as I interpreted it, you said you weren't, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong), we'll all still be here! :wave:

Cheers,
Fe
 
Can't believe I'm asking this... am I still welcome here? I would also like it if I could get a moderator's personal input.

Yes, I know some like deelare will come in and tease me for wanting to come back after all and how they were right... just seems I can't stay away from this place eh. :o;)

PS: Happy new year. Maybe 2009 might be a little better than 2008.

Geez...are you able to post? Have you been banned? I guess you are still "welcome" here by at least the moderator's standards! No one else really has a say, do they?
Live and (hopefully) learn...

Just because you're not banned doesn't mean a community has it's arms open to you. I mean, I left on a bad foot (that's the saying, right?) and I'm sure I annoyed and offended some people (sorry to those who I did).
 
My point is you are asking for a moderator's personal input, and as far as I'm concerned they have already expressed it by NOT banning you. They can't provide you with an accurate opinion of the whole rest of the forum membership, that's asking a bit much.

Just post and don't regard what others may or may not be thinking. You couldn't possibly have been a bigger annoyance than I have over the years!
 
Welcome back. I had wondered where you had been. I know that you may have acted immaturely in the past, but having learned from your mistakes, I believe that most of us are glad to see you back and hope that you decide to stay. I think most of us have said or done things that we regret, but the real sign of maturity is learning from our mistakes.
Hope to see you around

Hey Lo_Poly and Euphod, good to see some old faces again... :wave:

And though I can't speak for the entire community, you're welcome back in my book.

Wasn't exactly what I was asking from them, but oh well. :hehe:

(still surprised people seem to be literally glad to have me back!)
