I wanted to make sure I gave this guy every opportunity to make it Right before I jumped and made a move..its like Shooting a gun..once you have pulled the trigger there is no going back
I think the problem may have taken care of itself (Without any Action taken on my end)...I will go ahead and admit this cause some may not believe it....when I cast my Vote...I voted "NO"...not to ban him....lol. 8) ...I wanted the Man to have at least one Vote in his corner although I know he is dead wrong in his actions.
Everyone has bads Days...YES including me...so let me go ahead and take this moment and say if I have ever did anything to Hurt anyone in anyway I apologize it was not intentional or meant to be a permanent thing anyhow.
My job here is to protect you guys and keep peace...not to inflict any damage..I fully understand and respect the Authority this site has given me.."With Authority Comes Responsibility"
thanks for the words of reason Shawn...your a good fella !
I would like to say that I am VERY SORRY for anyone that I may have said bad things to or was messing around with. Guys, this is hard for me, not to say I'm sorry, it's hard for me to realize that I bought into the silliness that was going on.
I guess the keyboard got to me. I was mostly kidding around and it got out of hand. I do have to admit that it got out of hand when some of you guys (I will not name anyone) kind of picked on me. Maybe you guys were kidding around with me. But no matter how I look at it, I was wrong and I feel very bad about that. I'm not asking for anybody to forgive me because I'm not sure I forgive myself.
Maybe some of it was that I was very jealous of the relationships you all have on here. I had a whole lot of friends in drag racing and went through a bad time with an illness and just wanted to be alone. Now most of my friends don't want to be friends with me any more. Maybe I hurt them because I stopped communicating with them but I never was mean to them. I actually stopped communicatig with them because I didn't want to hurt them because I was in such a bad mood. I know I have said a lot of stupid stuff at times that I am sorry for, really sorry for. but like the old saying goes, a true friend would forgive you no matter what. So, I guess they may not have been real friends.
Now, as far as having 2 names, after the bad deal I had on RJ (and that was 1 bad deal out of 7) I felt that I had to change my name because I got phone calls and was physically threatened by another RJ member. I won't mention his name either. Yes, I did go to the police, not sure if they did anything but I know that I stopped getting phone calls. So to try to be a friend on here, I thought it would have been impossible for me to use my original name.
So with all that being said, this is just another boneheaded mistake I need to live with. Believe me it's not the first one and it probably won't be the last. But one thing Goomba never wanted to do or ever wants to do was to hurt anyone. I'm sorry. I wanted to clear the air. You guys really have something special on here I now realize that I screwed that up too.
