--- Quote from: Flinkly on October 28, 2004, 01:51:15 am ---i wasn't trying to make a jab at anyone, so i'm sorry that you took it so offensively. being a newbie, i don't quite consider myself part of the group yet, or i would refer to the byoac as "we", but i think this community is great for preservationists, mamers, and all sorts of people who find themselves here looking for pertinent answers.
just recently there was a thread where, if i was reading it right, a paralyzed person who had enjoyed playing video games prior to their accident was asking about controlers that would be useful to her since they have lost most control of their hands. because of the communities helpfullness and spirit, several people came foreward to offer useful input and some are even offering to make controllers for the person for free....i'm not trying to call you all jerks, and i'm sorry it came accross that way.
so i'm sorry for taking that out on the community here at the byoac, i sincerely apologize. and yes, at the end of every post i thank the people who give me input and directions to head in because i know that they don't have to help me, and they are because they want to, and i appreciate that. and i'm sorry for shooting peoples ideas down, but over six months of research on the web, i've taken most roads that can be traveled, and found nothing usefull to what i'm looking for. so everyone please except my apology, if you haven't stopped reading already, because i mean it...and thanks again for everyone whos looked over this post and tried to help, wether you've posted or not.

I know what it's like to post something that seemed fine at the time, but after someone took the time to lay into me and explain why I was an ass and I looked back, realized I WAS an ass....I suspect you have the same feeling I did.
I believe you are truly contrite. Taking the time to reply and to offer apologies to any you may have offended shows something about you. I think your apology is acceptable to all, and goes a long way towards building a rep.

I'll give you another tip. Before you submit your post, hit the preview button. Try to read two or three times to see if you can see the potential to offend before posting. Making a new name just because you got off on the wrong foot not only isn't necessary, but would take away a chance for us to show YOU that we can indeed forgive and forget.
A little lapse in judgement is forgivable. Not allowing someone to get past it and learn of your character makes them forever think they were right about you.
Buck up little camper. You'll prolly end up realizing you ARE one of the "we" here.
;D
