I've done a bit of thinking about why I was so incredibly upset when you abruptly went off the deep-end the other night. As much as I've said that it was because you attacked Mistress, someone I've considered a friend for well over a year, and *bratcat,* who is trying to turn her life around here, it really wasn't only about that. I am, unfortunately, never that altruistic.
For some reason, when you went off, I felt betrayed and it took me a while to realize it and to realize why. Particularly since I have no right whatsoever to feel this way.
You've always been some kind of paragon to me. Your spelling and grammar is vastly irritating, but it's the least important part of what you've been on this board to me. You've been the anti-KM, in my mind. And this is completely unfair to you. There is no such thing as the anti-KM. Until recently you've been the nicest person I've known. Your track record on this board has been as a good and friendly person. No matter how many times people attacked you, you never got personal when you went back at them in a mean way. You were the one person on this board who has never personally attacked another registered poster publicly. I've never heard rumors of you doing so in private either.
Of course, you're not a paragon and you're not made for a pedestal. You are, above all things, a human being.
I owe you a very big apology for the disservice that I did to you. Whether or not I was protecting a friend or helping out another poster by taking the heat and controversy is completely unimportant. I had no right and no call to think that you had betrayed me or this board by behaving however you choose to. You did no such thing. I am sorry.
