Hi, I'm sorry.

I'm guilty of leading attacks in which several people flooded the AH with disturbing pictures. It was never my intention to have come down to that and would like to make peace. The interw3b is to big to be fighting amoungt our communities. If anything, we should be fighting together for free speech.

that is all.
 
I'm all for Free Speech :rose:

We need more Free Speech and less careless invective.

I wish I could define it... But there's just a major difference between speaking freely and USING the free speech policy as an axis for being a colossal fucking prick. You know what I mean?
 
Peace and free speech are both good things in my book :)


:rose:


And I'm all for forgiveness too! :D

From one who managed to piss off a bunch of people here, I can understand where you're coming from. Generally, they're a forgiving bunch, but it'll take time and effort on your part - post more, participate, be positive.

Faciamo Pace.
 
Welcome back.

I agree with what Elvis said, the AH is generally a forgiving lot. That being said, for many people, forgiveness is not automatically bestowed just because it is asked for. It has to be earned. So stick around, post more, chat, discuss, flirt... whatever. :rose:

Well done, Brinnie. I somehow managed to miss the attacks you're speaking of, so I have no idea what you're talking about. But well done nonetheless. :rose:

Quite honestly, I saw this when you first posted it and I wasn't sure if you were sincere, so I waited. Like others have said, the AH is a forgiving lot, but it will have to be earned. I appreciate you stepping up and making the effort. Yes, we should all be standing together for Free Speech. I'm with Rhino, all the conflict gets to me.

Good of you to realize that. I know its probably odd hearing this from a man of my nom de plume, but I'm really glad you decided to step away from the abyss and not become a complete evil asshole.

I forgive you if you'll accept it. Just try harder in the future to distinguish the attacks from the hands of help and sympathy. Figure that out and you'll never have to apologize again.

Welcome back.
 
As one that was singled out, I'll accept but with reservations. No hard feelings.

I will say this, though, it took guts to apologize, and I respect that.
 
It seems to me, you are still making a fundamental mistake. The Ah cannot forgive you. You cannot offend the Ah. You can, and have, offended and attacked specific people within the Ah. There are people behind the screen names and those people are the ones you need to make peace with.

This is not to belittle your gesture, it's merely to point out the Ah is not some monolithic force that can be offended or appeased. It's a community, made up of people. If you continue to view the Ah as an entity, it will continue to frustrate and confound you. And more than likely to offend and insult you, in equal measure.

The opinion expressed by one member or even a group of members does not reflect the opinion of the Ah. It reflects the opinion of that one poster or the group of posters. If you continue to assign blame to the group for the opinons of specific members, you are going to find yourself in for a very frustrating time.
 
It takes bollocks to stand up and admit you were wrong. Good for you.

I managed to miss your first appearance, so I have nothing to forgive you for. However, I do appreciate your guts in coming back and owning up.

:D

NOW you're talking!

No hard feelings on my part... though I was not really attacked, so there's nothing for meto forgive.

However, that which you just pointed out is something I've been trying to preach for ages, so you're A-OK with me.

Okay, that works for me.

While I wasn't directly involved in most of the discusion I did watch it with slightly amused disgust. No need to apologise to me, but this did take guts. (Not that what I say around here carries any weight.) Welcome.

how many alts did she go through?

She kept getting banned for posting gigantic images of women vomiting Chicken Noodle soup over men with hardons-- and that was the least of it.

Only person I know of who actually got laurel to modify that policy of hers.

Before my time... thankfully!
