homeofmew and WPM meet Orlando/Florida 08/15/2008

[Water Pokemon Master]

No offense taken. I was just trying to clear up the record. Remember, this thread is already 3 pages long with people chiming in every few posts. I had to "catch up," hence the long, "general" post.

If I don't set straight a few things, people will continue with even deeper hatred in the future (this is probably the 4th or 5th hatred thread since I've left). That's what bothers me the most about all these people who still have so much unnecessary poison in them, though they may be using it as "sustenance" instead, from reading some posts in this thread.

Example of someone mistranslating the history of me over time:

Speaking of WPM and PMs, I still have this one you sent me a few years ago.

lol herald wtf omgzors u hav 2 take thAT NAUty pic of midl fingr out of ur sig or ill tell suzie to banzors you omgwtfbomz!!1111!11one!!!

Actual PM:

Heald, please remove the image of the middle finger in your signature. It is inappropriate and failure to remove it will probably lead to a Suzie sig 0wning.

Gracias,
- WPM

People continue to "evolve" me into a more annoying/evil person over time, so I have to step in to set the record straight at times. :p Example above. I'm a mod, Heald posts in my forum, I tell him his sig could get him in trouble, and he holds it against me even to this day. He acts as if I was attacking him viciously... or perhaps his memory has become flawed in all the unnecessary (and a lot of the time, unjustified) hatred going around. Is the above example something to hate someone over, especially when it is their job? I ask you mr. pikachu since you weren't around during those times.

*sighs* I think all the attacks are pointless; frankly, I think the argument itself is pointless on both fronts. I'm not sure why there's a lasting impact from whatever happened in the past, and I'm also not sure why you bother trying to counteract it if you've moved on. That's not to say the whole thing would subside if one side or the other dropped it, mind you, but I am saying that there's no chance of that when both sides continue to struggle over the past.

I didn't intend to get drawn into the fray, as I actually feel a little lucky to not have been a mod when everything big happened. It makes it easy to abstain from arguments like these which, again, appear futile from all angles.

Nonetheless, I will answer your last question before jumping away from this meaningless debate. People react in different ways to seeing different things. Whether or not they harbor resentment depends on the individual and the situation. I'm not here to judge that; I don't think anyone should bother. The important thing, in my view, is for each of us to control how we react to any given situation. Even if you can't control anyone else, you can still act wisely yourself.

*shrugs* That's pretty much the extent of my thoughts, gathered solely from my own limited observations. Take it or leave it, the choice is yours.

Wow, you actually went to the effort of digging up something I posted probably a year ago in order to make a moot point. It also doesn't change the fact you were constantly bitching at me and threatening to get Suzie to ban me for rather mild indiscretions. As mr_pikachu said, you're not really helping yourself. This thread would've probably died in a week when people get bored and move onto the next big thing, but now your bitching is just going to keep the hate going. You say there is no real reason why there is hate and you say it is just a bandwagon, then you call everyone immature, liars and tell us all to move on in a big, whiny, ranty post.

Also, there was this time you posted your satire piece on Asian drivers, and when people criticised it, you threw a big hissy-fit.

Wow, that's like the only thing brought up in this thread that I actually remember.
