An Apology To MineRealm
Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2012 1:18 am
I really don't know who's still here that remembers me. As time passes by we come and go from our hobbies. But there are possibly remnants, people who have stuck with MineRealm and know of my days on here. They know me by a lot of names; some good, some bad, but they all can agree my departure was less than smooth.
I've done a lot of stuff here to the members, the staff, and Intelli, that I shouldn't have done. I'm not posting here as a return to MineRealm. I'm not coming back. MineRealm, for all intents and purposes, is a better place without me and people like me. I've been allowed back on these forums to simply apologize. Intelli has been gracious enough to unban my main account for this job, and I've been appreciative enough to take his offer. So here I am to apologize. I feel better knowing I can do this as myself, under the name I became hated by, rather than some alternate account that wouldn't convey my message as clearly.
I can't begin to list everything I've done. From aggressively pushing people off the server to petty theft, my crimes against the membership are uncountable. To the Staff, I was quite awful. I said stuff about some of the staff that should have been kept under lock and key, behind zipped lips and closed fingers. And Intelli, who for a time I called friend. We played flippin' Monopoly together for goodness sake.
I stabbed Intelli in the back over MineRealm. I stabbed his decisions to keep me around in the back. I spat in his face when he offered me ways back in. I betrayed his trust. I betrayed MineRealm's trust.
I helped make MineRealm not better, but worse. I helped tear down something that people put their sweet time into. I betrayed friends and acquaintances.
And I'm sorry.
I told Intelli earlier that words are cheap. Words simply don't cut it; actions will always speak louder. But I'm here to apologize in hopes that someone who remembers will accept my olive branch. I apologize for everything I did here. When I first joined, I was a quiet person who built a small desert town with his friends. That was the first survival map.
Over time I became more outspoken, more hateful, and a much less pleasant person.
I'm sorry for that. I'm sorry for everything, really. I made mistakes. I'm Human like anyone else I suppose. I hope if we meet again on some game's server someday, we can be friends again.
I'll say it one last time before I say my final goodbyes.
To the whole of MineRealm, its staffers past and present, and last but not least, Intelli, I apologize for everything I've done here. I simply wish to move on from the past and look toward bettering myself and whatever the future holds. My feud with Intelli, with MineRealm, is something I look forward to forgetting. I'm sorry again, MineRealm, for what I became. If only things had gone differently.
Best of luck, Intelli. Best of luck staff.
Happy building, MineRealmers. Go make some shiny things.
