    To clear some things up...

    Hey folks, this probably won't matter to some people, but it matters to me and a few others, so I felt the need to post this.

    Anyways, I posted a kind of rude message on another thread, and in return, got shunned for it. I apologized to the thread creator and talked to Cain about it to help get things cleared up. I would like to make it 100% clear that my intentions weren't to be hostile towards people or offend anyone, and had I been more careful, I could have easily avoided that. It was my bad. When I rejoined the forums, I rejoined to play here, not be an asshat. I enjoy playing here, and if I didn't, I wouldn't play here at all and visit the forums frequently.

    The other thing I would like to clear up is that the times it may seem I'm complaining, about 25% of the time I actually am, the other 75% I'm just messing with people. In reality, I make a lot of my friends laugh when I say something funny in a rant format, so I guess it stuck with me. I will try to watch what I say since internet text shows almost no emotion, but yeah, I'm not a complainer or a whiny person, unless something really is bugging me or I'm incredibly frustrated about the game almost to the point where I need to log off, but a majority of the time I try to keep my cool.

    The other time it seems like I'm complaining, in example, about the TK limit, I'm actually trying to suggest things, but it appears lately people have been abusing the TK system since they're allowed 2 a round with no penalty (at the end of one round a guy decided to kill me and another guy so we both got deaths and he got nothing, just be a jerk). My intentions there wasn't to complain or rant, but to suggest, while giving examples of why I thought a TK limit should have been hire, but now that I make sure people can't run in front of me while firing, I haven't had a problem and no longer need it up'd.

    Anyways, I just wanted to post this so people understand that I'm not here to be an asshat, and I do apologize if I appeared that way. I have nothing against anyone, and although I have been banned before, I never held a grudge and simply moved on and lesson was learned. I do not wish to be banned again, because, like I said, I come here because I enjoy and have enjoyed playing with you guys, and this is a great server.

    Thanks for your time. See ya on the battlefield.

    Raven,
    There are a couple of things that might help.
    1. Never post while you are angry or upset. Wait until you are calm and then post.
    2. After you write out your post or reply, sit back and read it again and analyze it carefully. Look at it and try to read it from another person's perspective. You know what you mean when you type others have to infer from your text. There are no visual or auditory cues from text. It is easy to misunderstand someones text. As an example, sometimes phantom wants to be humorous or sarcastic and it does not come across that way to others and they think he is being obnoxious and get angry. I apologize Phantom if you are actually trying to be obnoxious.
    3. Use smilies to convey an emotion as I did using phantom as an example.
