    Default Apology.

    I'd like to apologize to the moderators and forum members for losing my temper and using profanities in the trading post area. I recently had to deal with several serious family related issues and my stress levels were a bit high, so I figured a couple glasses of whiskey and going online for a while would help me to unwind. I was mistaken, and conducted myself in an ungentlemanly manner, which I sincerely regret. This will not happen again. Thanks for not hitting me with the banhammer.

    Honestly, it was close... We really don't like giving time-out's or perma-bans, but sometimes they're called for. At least you didn't go off on a member of the staff, that always ends badly.

    I'm glad you've sorted things out, and apologies do go a long way. Friends don't let friends drink & post.

    Although I'm not involved, I appreciate your apology. A little bit of humility really does go a long way.

    I read the posts in the "problem" thread, and was curious what was "really going on", as that didn't sound like you. I don't know you and I've never met you, but when you hang out around here enough, you learn personalities. Glad it didn't turn out worse, and I hope you got your issues squared away.

    I always miss the good stuff.

    I can't drink whiskey. It makes me meaner than the devil.

    Good for you for standing up and admitting your mistake.

    Not sure what it is about my body chemistry, but I can do whiskey just fine. I have some tequila and things go very badly.


    OP - good on ya for apologizing... whatever it was about.

    Clint45, when you start a thread like this, it's like you are also apologizing to everyone who missed out on the thread. Apology accepted.
