I just lost a good friend

Usually when you apologise:

[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Nov-28-00 AT 02:38AM (GMT)[p]You generally use something called 'tact'.

I find a severe lacking of such in the above post.

Furthermore....


>#1 I had just read those posts of u guys bitching out the kid that posted in the wrong room, then i read this post and thought, what the hell? this has NOTHING to do with fallout AT ALL and you give him your sympathies? at least the other guy's post had something to do with fallout! (I don't have that mentality anymore)

What has a LOT of these topics to do with Fallout? Why did you pick THIS one, of all the ones, to jump on?

>#2 Since this *is* a Fallout site, I assumed that the general discussion would focus around general fallout-related topics. I was not under the impression that ANYTHING could be posted here.

>Anyway, my point was only that it seemed a little weird to me that a kid that just wants some questions answered gets bitched out (I mean seriously bitched out), and then Shadowman comes along yappin' about his dog and he gets everyone's sympathies. It sounded weird at the time.

Try reading the forum description again, just to be safe. Please let us know when you understand what it means.


>Plus, I am a half-assed newbie and I dont know who's in charge here and who's not a newbie, so I just thought it was some pathetic loser lookin for a few "I'm sorry"s. *obviously* I was wrong. Sorry....thats all i have to say

Well, it wasn't. See that little blue icon? That's an admin/moderator marker. Since you reek of Netnewbie, I suggest strongly that you find a Nettiquette guide somewhere, and do some heavy reading. It's a good idea to lurk around and get a feel of who is who, and if someone is in charge or admin, keep that safely in mind. I would have chewed the same if it was anyone else on this board and you did the same to them. In any case, ask if something is good or not. Many times, most will be more than helpful to point out what is kosher and what is not. Attaching a gripe after someone's obvious state of grief is *very* bad timing, and quite rude.

RE: Usually when you apologise:

ok

I'll give you guys every benefit of the doubt, but first i'd like to clear just a few things up.

you asked why i 'beat up' on this one. this is the only one i read, thats why.

I'm not a netnewbie. i didnt know that that icon meant that he was an administrator. besides what difference does it make that he is an administrator

I'm just trying to clear things up and all you guys can do is bitch me out. what the hell do you want me to do or say? I made a mistake, i called it, you did your bitching, i got my bitching, whats more to say? I WILL be more careful in the future, i know i NEVER should have done anything but say "I'm sorry to hear that". no i dont need no netiquette book or something...come on, why do you guys need to be such hard asses on me? the last time I checked we are all human and we ALL have pissy moods/days where we do weird things, and the traditional way to make amends is to apologise, which I did. Further discussion/bitching out is uneeded. If you want me to do something, fine I dont have a problem. I dont see why such a simple mistake or misunderstanding should get me in such hot water

RE: Usually when you apologise:

Ok. I'm cooled down now, and I can state what I REALLY meant to say.

#1 I'm not a Netnewbie, but I can see why you'd think I am. I am, however, new to forums/message boards, so excuse my ignorance. I didnt know what the icon meant.

#2 I meant/mean no disrespect towards this site, Shadowman, you (roshambo) or anyone else. Like I stated before, I thought, since this is a Fallout site, that the 'general discussion' would revolve around fallout-related topics. I was not under the impression that *anything* could be posted. To put it simple, you were right. I was wrong.

#3 You're right, I certainly did lack tact in my apology, that's why I'm posting this. I don't want friction between me and you/this site/shadowman/anyone. As far as my apology, I'm sorry that I jumped ahead and went 'out of bounds' by posting my first reply. it was not considerate and completely unnecessary. to tell you the truth, I was trying to get it off somehow right after I posted it.

#4 I hope this will be forgotten, because obviously all I want is to end this pointless argument. I hope you can understand. To sum-up, I'm sorry for being a total inconsiderate prick to everyone, for lacking tact in my apology, and for any other inconvenience/unpleasantness i have given to you/this site. I hope you can understand.

RE: Mes condoleances

Oh man, I'm gonna start bawling soon. The sting of that is real bad, hope you feel better soon. :'(
 
shit miroslav, i thought my mountain of porn was mans best friend, and if it fails you you only have your homosexual ways or faulty penis to blame.

sorry bout the loss, but seeing as ive never had anyone love me, or care for me, i cant really relate.

Netnewbie? Nettiquette? what the fuck are those? :) but seriously.
 
Excuse me?

Now, I don't lay a fault upon those of an alternate lifestyle (my gf was in a same-sex marriage for a while).

But I DO resent when it's used as an insult, as it entails a goodly amount of evident bigotry.

I'm sorry, but you've earned a banning.

Miroslav, at your convenience and discretion, can this shithead.
 
RE: Excuse me?

[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Nov-30-00 AT 05:05AM (GMT)[p]it wasnt an insult. heres the deal, if my heterosexual porn doesnt turn you on then you must be gay or your penis must be defective. I wasnt aiming this comment towards anyone. DO you want me to give you an excuse to ban me? cause fuck, im tired of you always gettign on my case about being wrong, about flaming people, about lacing my posts with some vulgarity.

Anyways i have gay friends gay family and i love them like myself and my porn collection. Im sorry if it came off sounding bigoted. And if you say im still a bigot then oh well, you dont know me.

Oh it must of been because of faulty pronoun useage that you didnt understand who the message was directed at.
 
RE: Excuse me?

Obviously your pronoun usage was very atricious, and evidently left a lot of room for misunderstanding.
 
RE:

[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Dec-06-00 AT 09:45PM (GMT)[p]I feel for ya man. I know exactly what you are going through. I know that things were kinda shaky between myself and the moderators but I wanna make a comeback. I really feel sorry for you.
