I realize that over the years, my abrasive personality has won me none too many friends here, and has actually resulted in driving many promising users off, who would have otherwise stayed and contributed.

It was fun, sort of a perverse fun, "back in the day", to see whose buttons I could press and how hard, but now I see it's really just hurting the place.

So, I would like, here, to say that I apologize to those who I have offended or otherwise caused a distaste in, and vow to behave better on here, for the betterment of not only myself, but also the board as a whole.

Flack, I would like to apologize mostly to you. You have single-handedly kept this place afloat for the last, what, at least six months, and I had no business doing anything but thanking you for and encouraging your participation. I got out of hand, and I know that, and I sincerely, strongly apologize for that.

Thank you.

You're apologizing in it!!




Wait, you're apologizing in it? Say, is this some sort of trap?

No, man. Look at my recent posting history here. It's a goddamn embarrassment of undeserved insults and nastiness, with nowhere near the quality of real content to justify it -- not that you can really justify that sort of nonsense.

No trap. Just hoping we can keep the good people that are here now, hoping to salvage the place.

This is really wonderful to see. I don't know if it's magic, but there's something in the air. I just hope it's not too late. Flack? Are you out there Flack?


FLLAAACCCKK??


Hey, maybe we'll also get back k.roo and bot.

Ben, I pointed out to you that your signature points to your website that has no content on it. I mean, you go up on my website and while I don't do it as often as I would like, I do update it regularly. Why did you even want people going to your website when you have absolutely nothing to say? At least sometimes your insults could be interesting.

Visit My Site; now with more than 103,716% more content than Pnback's!

My website used to have a lot of stuff on it, but then for some reason my email address got out to someone that maybe I didn't want them looking at my website. I forget who, actually. I should probably put the content back, you're right.

Thank you for reminding me about that. And of course, a lot of my apologies here have to go to you, too, friend. You've really brightened this place up lately, and I've done little but try to darken it back down. So, things will change now.

what are you talking about? Paul Robinson's posts read like Watson wrote them if it was hooked up to the internet. Tdarcos would fail the turing test every time so why apologize to it?

That was very decent of you, pinback!

I am deeply offended that you would consider me a posting bot. I am not sure who Watson is, so I'm a little confused in tha

No apology necessary. I just got tackled in what I thought was a game of touch football. I'm back, with pads on this time. Game on.
