VGFacts

I sincerely apologize for those who had to go through what they did last night. It was the middle of the night, I was sick, and I had taken some PM medicine. I was out for nearly 12 hours.

I wake up to see that even though I asked no one attack anyone on the "Chain of Events" thread, A Zombie Riot chose to resurface and personally attack myself (by name) again on that thread and also his own.

I have gotten in little arguments with other members before, but nothing that doesn't dissipate after a few posts. I have never been treated like this. But instead of angrily reply to each of the posts he attacked me on, I decided to take a deep breath, and in the theme of honesty I want for us, am posting this in the General Discussion forum.

If any of you ever have an issue with the way I am being a member or a moderator, please let me know. I do not want anything like this to ever happen again.

Overnight posts beginning here,

and here.

I feel Hex said it best with this:

"Oh the stuff that happens while I'm asleep...

It's unfortunate that I have to say this after Zombie's been temp banned but it's an opinion I'd like to express.

Zombie, you could really be a pleasant person to converse with at times. However, it's that part of you that led to this mess that made me very uneasy with you being a Mod. Cuccos touched on it perfectly how it affected not only myself but others. When you have folks actually wanting to leave a forum because of how you're conducting yourself there's obviously a problem.

I am not proud of how I responded to the situation but I was speaking as an upset and frustrated member at the time because things just kept getting worse and worse and I felt powerless. You know darn well that "New rule" you tried to instate was meant to be manipulated by you in order to hand out fake, undeserved warnings, which you even proceeded to prove.

It's hurtful to say you were planning to leave anyway and only came back now to kill time. As I've said before the reason why I'm not a member of many forums is because I really like the small ones where you can actually get to know everyone. As a result, many places I enjoyed were shut down due to lack of inactivity. Yes, this forum certainly has room for more members, but I'm happy that we have the amount we do have and that everyday there are new posts. I am comfortable here and feel blessed that I've gotten to know such fun, witty, and interesting people. I really hope that I can be of use to this forum and help others to enjoy it as much as me.

Please take a moment to think about what has happened and take responsibility for your actions as others have. No one is lying at all about what went down and we certainly wouldn't lie how we felt about it. I know I'm reflecting on what happened and thinking of better ways to have handled it, especially now that I'm in a position where I can do so.

You upset and lost a lot of respect from a large amount of us, Zombie. If you feel like coming back and trying to make amends, it may take some time, but I'm sure most would respond favorably towards it. However, if you're going to continue raging and pointing fingers as you've done, it's best for everyone if you move on."
