A Very Public Apology

Dear AF,

A few months ago now, I was relieved of my status as a member here. I had been warned numerous times, a fair few times than I should have had really.

During the intervening months, I have had time to reflect closely on my actions, which I sincerely believe were not up to either AF's nor my own personal standards. I have become the moderater of a small sub section of a major New Zealand forum, and while it's the best section of the site I have had my fair share of being called heavy handed for editing a post relating to another members father's testicles, as well as other imagined offences I had committed against the community.

During this period, I came to a startling revelation: I had been a right cockhead. My personal insults were far below what was expected of me and really wern't on. I also developed a certain sense of empathy towards the moderaters here and the kind of shit they have to put up with, which is 100x what I have to deal with.

So I would like to personally apologise to the following moderaters and members:

Moppie: I should never have called you what I did, and I would like to offer my profuse apologies. I would like to put it behind us, and would hope you can too.

Oz: For pretty much betraying your trust when I apologised to you the last time and promptly started acting up again. If you make here I'll buy you a drink of your choice as long as it's beer or scotch.

Dave: For putting you between a rock and a hard place and essentially taking our friendship for granted. I'll buy you a bourbon the next time we head out.

Fullysick (I think): Apologies for calling you an Aussie twat I think it was.

Naki: I think I called you a dictator or some such irrelevant trivial crap. Much apologies.

I would like to say that it is up to the moderators to decide whether I can stay this time around. I would understand if you were to ban me again, but at least I feel the air is cleared and the karma has been restored.

If I were to be let to stay (on this name, not the old one- new beginnings and all that), I would give my word as a man and as a New Zealander that I will NOT behave inappropriately towards anyone. As the people who know me personally will attest to, my word is not something I break.

So with profuse apologies and the offer of free beer to those who make it to Wellington, I offer my deepest and most sincere apologies to, first, the moderaters of AF, and secondly to the members to had to witness the spectical and utter shit behaviour that I demonstated.


Sincerely,

Rhys.

I would buy you a beer just for that, if I could.
If could, then like, send it to you, but the beer would be Carlton Draught, and yes, yes, yes, I know you are (like everyone around the world) are eager to taste this fine, draught beer, the people at customs, would object to me sending you a glass long neck (little bottles don't make nice presents), they would get suspicious, then greedy and eventually, drink it them selfs over a nice toast cause they just busted some guy from some place of carrying about 500g of pot.


So I'll just say, I hope the mod's accept your appology, that was well writen, and it takes a real man to accept he's made a mistake, then say sorry.

So with profuse apologies and the offer of free beer to those who make it to Wellington, I offer my deepest and most sincere apologies to, first, the moderaters of AF, and secondly to the members to had to witness the spectical and utter shit behaviour that I demonstated.

I'm going to have to insist that you buy me a 12-pack when I'm in Wellington. Thanks! :iceslolan :cheers:
