public apology

Postby cherzra » Mon May 27, 2002 10:23 pm

Ok, here it is.

Two odd months ago Corth and I were pulling each other's leg on the BBS, somewhat akin to the current smooch smooch argument (knock it off already heh) and after one taunt too many I proceeded to subscribe him to various GNU mailing lists. At the time I didn't think too much of it and I was relieved to have gotten him in that way without stooping to profanity on the BBS. Anyway, Miax thought differently of that and I was subsequently banned after Corth told him of it.

In the meantime I have been busy with a lot of other stuff, but eventually I would like to return playing here. To that end, I hereby apologize for what I did. At the time it seemed like the right thing, but looking back it's not only stupid because it obviously resulted in penalty to myself, but also because it could have been handled differently. I could have ignored what had been written, or I could have subtly answered or even countered by being nice. Alas I have a short fuse at times, as people who grouped with me can surely attest to. Thus it was that I chose to directly get even.

Anyway, I have spoken to some imms since then and they are willing to give me the same chance they gave Corth when he went out of line. It's actually somewhat ironic that he should first be banned, and I later.

So Corth, I'll be honest and say we never agreed on many things (although the past week I have found a few surprising exceptions) and that we will probably never give each other more than a cold shoulder, but at least I should have kept it to the BBS or tells. I'm sorry I subscribed your e-mail to half a dozen mailing lists. I'm actually not a hate bearing person, but at times I freak out and lash out, and this was one of those instances.

Miax said this wouldn't be easy, and he was right. It's never easy to apologize, especially publicly, and I'm not one who does so easily.

Cherzra, working on that fuse.

Cherzra,

I accept your apology and am glad that you will be back on the mud. Despite any of our differences I have respected you as a player and as someone who cares enough about the mud to invest time and energy to make it better. I told Miax when you were banned that I hoped eventually you could come back, and I'm glad to see it happen.

Corth

Definitely a sign of the mud population's growing age... it's nice to see people be able to be mature, apologize, and let bygones be bygones.

-Xeb, pleasantly surprised some days.
