Let me find your apologize letter meanwhile.
No need to do that. I clearly remember it.
But if I get punished for stating the truth (by KoRny's definition) then you should recieve punishments for your deeds. And that would be more than five times than for me if no bias and true equality would be endorsed between moderating team.

Sure, someone loves to be martyr
Quote: A Letter of Apology to Everyone
I am not really sure how to start this. Maybe I am at last matured enough to admit my own mistakes and shake them off to start over. I simply don't know. I am lost. I probably deserved more punishments for various rules and such. Maybe a perma-ban. I don't know. I am quite sensitive person. Even now I feel some tears are going to fall ove keyboard, but that won't stop me from speaking my mind.
I am sorry. For every little bad thing I have done over all my life. This letter is in no way to get attention and invitation to like me. I simply feel the need to do this.\par
I am sorry for all the curse words I used. They were not needed. There are many words that can be used instead of them.
I am sorry for insulting. I should not have done that. It doesn't bring me real joy. Probably lowering others in my mind is the way to redeem my own problems and feel at least more equal,
I am sorry for all the trolling I have done. Some of it was intentional. For which I am the only to blame. I should have had control over myself. Maybe I'm not strong enough to take care after myself. Some was unintentional. Sorry for that too. Should have chosen more neutral words and attitude to not seem as a troll.
I am sorry for all the hassle I did. It was waste of time for everyone. Time is precious. And I owe you then. And we all know I won't be able to redeem that in ages.
I am sorry for my behaviour. I shouldn't have lost myself to emotions. I emphasise cool mind and aren't able to have it myself. I caused too much harm for everyone.
I sincerly apologise for everything bad I have done.
To each and everyone of those who felt insulted, trolled, harmed, misbehaved. I doubt I at all deserve a second chance for what I have done. But that I will leave for your own decission.
I don't know what will happen next. But I suppose since I care and owe the most to IC, I will do everything in my power to make it the faction it deserved to be.\par
And here came the first tear. I hardly see keyboard, so I apologise for following grammar and spelling or punctuation mistakes. I won't review what I wrote since that wouldn't be honest. I said I'll speak my mind and I will do it.\par
So here I am. In front of you. Plain on your display.
I believe this has already been attempted in removing post count,
failed experiment. You can't actually ban them.
I mean you can but then half of the community would be gone.
And we are done here. All I will say on the matter is that moderating a forum is much more an art than a science. It takes more than one would think. Moderators are not robots, there is no list of "This is ok, this is not" mainly because there can't be. Moderators need common sense and the ability to think about how the way we moderate the forums effects the community. The moderator and admin staff is chosen not only on their own personal merits, but also to develop a admin and moderation staff that is a reflective cross section of the community. This means we have many different view points among the staff, and our practices often move with the general opinion of the staff, this means this admin staff is not the same as the admin staff when Hood, or Del, or even Dusty was around, not better or worse, but different. We discuss these things constantly. I can promise you, every member of the moderation and admin staff is doing and promoting what they think is best for the community. Some of us think a harsher reaction is better, some thing a more moderate reaction is better. Some think the current situation with trolls on the forums comes from us not being harsh enough, some think it comes from us being too harsh. Everyone is going to have opinions on these things, some people will think how the staff handles it is right, some think it's wrong. We will never be able to please everyone, so we just try out best to not worry about pleasing people, and instead worry about what is best for the community as a whole.
