Title: Might not mean shit. But, read on.
Post by: Kung_Man149 on November 11, 2013, 06:37:57 PM

I realize since the last time I've been on this forum, I was.... a little agitated and thoughtlessly offensive.
And for that, I apologize.

I was incredibly angry about the ban I received and lashed out at who I perceived to be attacking me.
As some of you know, I've struggled with that sort of issue in the past.
Now, I won't deny that I still have these issues en masse. But, the extra time away from the forums have given me time to cool off and compose myself.

I want to wholeheartedly apologize to Rachel and Owen for the words I've said to them on my last forum visit.
It was wrong and I hope to be able to speak to you guys again.

Thank you.

Keep on rocking, WG. (I know this means little. But, I still want to say it regardless.)

Not really, just questioning why the WG banner.
The Rune Armor Keanu and Gene wore was well done, just... why the banner, y'know?

The banner was well done and really stuck out from the crowd. A good way to make people notice you and maybe even pay a visit to the clan :)

Just think it's a bit... overkill on the advertisement.
Since Gene's face is plastered everywhere and everyone and their mothers knows Gene's associated with WG.
So, that's pretty much what I was insinuating.

A clan leader wanting to recruit people to his clan that's struggling? What a prick!

Hey Alain, I think it'll be a long time before you're welcomed here with open arms with people's attitudes toward you. But respect for the apology.

At this point, I'm willing to take the heat or the hate.
Whatever it takes.
I'm out to rebuild my reputation (Not the negative side) and this apology is just the start.
Instead of hating on the staff like I did, I'm going to try to be a positive influence.
I understand that it'll take a lot of work to be re accepted into the community with "open arms", but, with enough effort, I believe it can be done.
And I never said that it was a bad thing that Gene's trying to promote WG through cosplay.
Just that particular thing was a little overboard.

I honestly forgave you ages ago.
I understand how easy it is to get overheated in the moment and regret it later.

I think to gain some reputation around here would be to tone your opinions down. Even on this thread now, I think you're expressing your opinion a little too strongly. Re-read what you've typed and you may (or may not) agree. Nothing wrong with an opinion, but there is a limit before that opinion comes out like it wasn't intended.

Hi Alain. Owen + I > Keanu + you in WG vs DG arguments ##

Randy, as much as I would like to apologize to you.
I don't see a point in doing so at this current moment, because I don't trust my actions until I prove to myself that I can rebuild everything.
Until I feel that my reputation is fixed, I'll stay out of your way and you stay out of mine that way things don't spiral downwards again.

And Will, I'll take what you posted to heart and try to tone down my opinions.
Thank you.

That's fine, Randy.
You call call me whatever you like.
For the record, that was a mistake on my part (Ignorant to the date and thoughtlessness.) and will not be so insensitive in the future.

As I said.
It was a mistake on my part due to thoughtlessness.
I in no way condone the wars or shit like that. I also have nothing but immense respect for Veterans.
But, You can keep going until you're done. I won't stop you.

The gesture is nice, but you just recently insulted me on Facebook - so I'm told.
I can't actually see your posts since one of us blocked the other, but I was told what you said.
Owen and Rachel is another matter entirely but there's a bigger picture.

Anyway, I just want to say one thing.
It's wrong of all of us to be jumping on Alain in a topic where he's apologising.
Sure, he's not making amends for everything, but at least he's changed direction.
I think we can afford to be a bit nicer to him; if this isn't enough it's at least a start.

Gene, no.
Let them vent.
It's the only way I think of to let them know I'm not going to retaliate and be like I was previously.

And Patty, that was also explained above.

Tbh I like the WG reference in their cosplay. It's not the best advertisement strategy for a clan (because there are more clans with purple banners) but it does show that you guys are in a clan and that purple is the color that represents the clan. It also shows the dedication (but that's my opinion).
Not everyone knows who Gene is, so stop overreacting :p lol

The cosplay wasn't recruitment.
Why are you guys making such a big deal out of it?
I made it because I wanted to wear it.

Randy, can you stop? Please?
I recognized my mistake and made it clear that I knew I was wrong.

Keeping it going is only going to make things worse and that's not what I want at this point.
You can dislike me all you want. But stop bringing up the past when I'm trying to fix it.

This isn't the PAST this is the PRESENT.
You apologized. Great! And then literally one hour later you joined our IRC parodying Hitler.
Not only is that offensive to veterans on remembrance day but also to everyone else who was affected by the Holocaust/WW2, including myself coming from a Jewish family.
Your apology means nothing and don't try to victimize yourself by saying I'm bringing up the past when it was YESTERDAY.

Alain, here's some life advice. Log off the forums and get off the internet.
Go outside and volunteer or find other means on becoming a better person.
You can apologize a million times to me and others on the web that you've offended, but until you ACTUALLY learn how to respect others it's all meaningless.

You can apologize a million times to me and others on the web that you've offended, but until you ACTUALLY learn how to respect others it's all meaningless.

I'll make this clear again, because apparently what I said went over everyone's heads.

I logged on with the name "Fuhrer_Koffin" out of my own thoughtlessness on the day.
Yes, it was wrong to do so, and I admit it.
I apologize if I've offended anyone by it.

But, there is also a reason why they call yesterday "The Past" and that's exactly why.
Because it's passed and today is a new day.

Now, I'm not going to go into a long diatribe about how I volunteer at homeless shelters because that's not what anyone wants to hear and in fact, I don't do that.
However, I will say that I try my best to respect people in my personal life and here is no different.
I KNOW that I have a blotched past in WG and in RuneScape in general and if I can repair that, then great.
I'm trying to be as honest with people wether it's online or outside as I can be.
I've already gotten a good lead on the outside part already and I want to get started on the online part as well.
So, with that, I want to start here. In WG, where I have/had friends that I respect/respected.

So, again, Randy. Stop bringing up the past and look forward to what I hope to at least achieve in terms of what I want to do.
