Rigormortis 15 #1 Posted November 20, 2009 Here is a casually formal apology for any annoyances caused to the respectable Lotus members and regulars on my part. It was never my intention to appear as a "douchebag," rather someone who refused to be trampled underfoot by the actual douchebags in this community. Within the first week since my initial appearance on the Lotus servers I had experienced things that I deemed wrong (with good reason). Things such as the consistent team stacking that we all know and tolerate and the relentless trash talk to the opposing minority therein. It was in the interest of fairness, sportsmanship, and good policy when I decided to speak up. I posted a thread bashing team stackers, which, to my dismay, backfired; it made me look like the bad guy, or at least worse than I truly am. Since then I seem to have taken the role of another community nuisance, such as the infamous, Yousuckandhavenolife - also my pet-peeve of proper diction and grammar usage somehow always manages to negatively obstruct the good image that I'd like people to have of me, which I am also apologizing for. I definitely have made a lot of friends in the seemingly countless hours I've played here, but in doing so I have undoubtedly gained numerous enemies; a few of which I'd prefer to keep as enemies. But for the majority of you I'd greatly appreciate a clean slate. In return I'll buy all of you ponies and cupcakes, and, of course, make Pevans the sandwich he's always wanted. Sorry, Lotus. ------------------------- Alright, now you guys can flame me like you always do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kuttlewug 28 #5 Posted November 20, 2009 UH this is the kind of apology you give to people in real life who you're being a doucher to. I think people are going to glance at this then leave. Oh! I'm doin that now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bombz 31 #7 Posted November 20, 2009 You don't need to make an apology for a difference in opinion or your viewpoints. Simple as that. I doubt anyone cares what you thought of team stackers, regardless. I hate teamstacking no matter what. Yes it happens randomly from time to time. But I'm talking about the incessant stacking with no regard to emptying out a server at 3AM when it won't fill back up. Whether you're one of Santas little elves or a member of Clan XXXX makes no difference. Yeah, it's your opinion, why apologize? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Victoreem the V of doom 30 #8 Posted November 20, 2009 tl;dr. yeah kinda glazing over it. look buddai no one really cares. This is a video game forum for video games Mana has been kind enough to open servers for. Look around the thread archives and you'll find several stack attack threads that ended in no one really giving a shit. ...and you cant measure up to the troll that is/was suckylife R.I.P godspeed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissia 7 #9 Posted November 20, 2009 It's the Internet. I highly doubt anyone actually cares. Oh ye great beast of wisdom and truth, I beseech thee; What other soothing plattitudes does thy omniscient mind have for the mere mortals worshipping at your feet? But seriously rigormortis, you're no more of a douchebag than phantom. The difference is, I think, that phantom honestly doesn't care what people think about him, and so it ends up that phantom ribs people, people joke back and mock him in return, and it's all in good fun. That's what I assumed people were doing with you, but I suppose you actually care, which somehow fills me with the desire to mock you even more... damnit internet, you're a bad influence. BAD INTERNET. You don't di things like that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graedus 9 #13 Posted November 20, 2009 The first time I saw you online (That I remember) you were on the stacked team and I joined the "bad" team and you kept backstabbing me cause I was a slow fat heavy. Long story short, I don't care. Continue about your business. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super Sean 1 #15 Posted November 20, 2009 Hey, I think at times we have friends that are douches, but we still kinda like them. I think of you as that friend, who, later on, will become less "douchy" in the future. Hopefully. Either that or you'll be the friend who still has the same level of douche since first meeting them, and, in the end, get shunned/ignored by his peers before he leaves and/or an heroes. Hopefully you'll be the first guy, Riggy. But quite frankly, this is the internet; so being a douche or not it doesn't really matter - that is until a person of power calls an end to it.

The Computer Geek 6 #17 Posted November 21, 2009 Hey I'll give ya credit for at least admitting you were a douche bag. IMHO you were never were near the level of "yousuck".
