Public Apology

    I would like to apologise to the posters who posted idiotic post in the I&M section for calling them idiots - I had no right to say that to them.

    I would also like to apologise to all the mods for calling them silly little gamers, and for the rude remark about them now using piddle bottles so that they don't have to drag themselves away from their screens - I had no right to say that either.

    In light of my stupidity, and the wise crack at the new book for teaching the mods, I have decided that I am going to ban myself for a period of time, starting sometime today, and finishing sometime in April.

    Again, you all have my sincere apologies, for calling you all idiots is just not on, really :mad:

    Thank you Ronny - I went to the church over the weekend and I decided to go to confession, something that I have not done for, well, I can't actually remember?

    Anyway, the priest was very understanding, and when I told him that I called people idiots, he asked me why?

    I told him why, the idiotic posts and all that stuff, and he then peeped at me thru the small curtain to see who I was. I was very embarrassed and it was this looking thru the curtain that really had the impact on me.

    It was like a revelation!

    Of course you're not serious. You are trolling & looking for some fun. Else, I'm sure you would have made sincere and serious gestures to make amends, like sending apologetic pm's to the persons concerned. You will dutifully monitor the thread and reply to select posts, gradually stirring up the wasps.

    Anyone offering odds on when our friend gets banned?

    In the meantime, pass the minstrels would you DesF?

    When one sees the right in their wrong, it can be a very precarious experience!

    Maximilian - I do remember joking about your nose, and the lift doors, and that was not very nice - so I apologise to you.

    I am sure that you are a kind and considerate mod, and that you will be amply rewarded for all of the good work that you do for society.

    For, where would we all be but for yourself, and your good friends?

    As your hero once said:

    Get not your friends by bare compliments, but by giving them sensible tokens of your love.



    I think vacating the thread would be such a token, Mr 43. Surely you've said your piece and need not add more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭Bob the Builder

    RB - you are setting a bad example.

    Yes KtK, I was banned, and rightly so, for I have now seen the err in my ways.

    What I done was wrong, and no matter how hard I try, it looks like I will not be accepted back into the community - I have been cast out like the black sheep!

    Alas, it is all of my own doing, so I must pay the price for my idiotic posts.

    Maybe someday, some where, some mod will find it in his/her heart to forgive me - I nearly forgot Calina there for a moment, how stupid of me.

    Hello to ALL - I have officially lifted the ban on myself as from now :)

    In order to celebrate my return to this fine place, I am going to compose some short verse as a mark of respect for fellow members, and the mods as well, of course.

    If anyone has any objections, please say so now, or forever hold your piece - or is that peace :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,332 ✭✭✭311
