One last thing. Bruno, if you're an alcoholic I am very sorry about that statement and wish you the best. There's a reason I edited it out. I should have known better than the post something like that, growing up with the mother I did and all.
Oh, you're so innocent. You poor thing...
Like you didn't know...
I only say it to the known drunks of the forum.
And you have the nerve calling me a big asshole on a high horse?...
That remark was way worse than anything I have ever said here. Make no mistake about that.
Acting like you didn't know just shows you you're not only an immature prick, but also a hypocrite...
Bye bye Ryan, not gonna miss you...
I felt this PM, and my response should be put out in the open.
That was probably the dumbest thing I've ever posted on this forum. I edited it out, but it was too late, and now it's there for everybody to see. To say I feel terrible about it would be an understatement, and I'm still a bit shocked I even typed that in the first place. I'm leaving because there's no way I can have any dignity or self respect after posting something like that. Could you? Many people know alcoholism is something I take to heart. My mother was an alcoholic and an abusive mother and it's nothing that anybody should be attacked over or joked about. I've talked with bruno and we're on good terms. I feel I've managed to every ounce of respect I've had on the forum with that statement.
I've made many e-friends here. People I enjoy talking with and playing with. This forum gave me a sense of belonging and happiness when I was going through the roughest part of my life. It spurred the first charity auction, and made me realize that this is more than just a game forum. It's a community of mutual friends who are willing to give a hand. I still enjoy this place a whole lot, and it has become a permanent staple in my memory. But there's nothing that can express the amount of shame I feel about what I said. I honestly didn't know Bruno was an alcoholic, and even if I did, it's not something that should have ever even entered my brain, let alone anything should I have said. I love this forum and the ideas and conversations it has spurred, but, there's no excuse for what I said, and I haven't felt this terrible in quite a long while.
And that is why I'm leaving.
Older. Not wiser.
