Civility in the Public Square
« on: December 23, 2015, 03:17:43 AM »
Citizens of Taijitu...

My return has been less than ideal. I've come back to see a lot of negativity. I understand that many people have felt wronged, marginalized, and ignored over the last few months. Distrust that bred contempt. I fell into that trap too. I've said things that hurt others. All that I can say is that I felt justified at the time. Feeling justified and being justified are two different things though. So no more. No more giving into base instincts.

Gulliver. Elu. Myro. Funk. Dyr. Guy. I'm sorry. I'm sorry if anything I said or did made you feel belittled or unwelcome. No amount of justification can makes anything that caused you or others to feel that way ok. Yes, you six and I have very different ideas concerning NS foreign policy. And that's ok.
That being said? I'm promising you something right now. From this point forward I will not drag personal insults into debate. I will not belittle anyone for a difference of opinion. I will try to hold myself to a higher standard I know I'm capable of.

Past grievances are just that...past. I'm moving forward :)

My name isn't mentioned above (and it shouldn't be, since you haven't said anything unwelcoming to me), but I do appreciate your apologies and willingness to change and improve!  We certainly could use a lot more of that here.

You've been a fantastic person to be around (sorry I haven't been keeping up with news lately), and I think we all want to welcome you back into the Taijitu community smoothly!  :)
