Two days from now makes the anniversary of a fateful night... at least for me, you all probably don't give a shit. I've had a long time to reflect upon my actions and involvement. Time to say some things that have been on my mind.
THE RECAP:So about one year ago, a thread was made. It was about custom themes. Of ALL THINGS, it was custom themes. Anyway, a guy (cid xiv) wanted to install custom themes on his Gateway EmuNAND. A minor problem was that it was posted in the wrong section. No big deal, right? Well, welcome to Hell! A flame war erupted, simply over a minuscule detail. Genuine help was offered, but the OP can't be fucked to read it, as he's too busy hurling insults.
Now, I am indeed a "dumb cunt", but I'm not a giant dumbass. Moving on...
A poster (Jack_Sparrow) says he needs people to comfort him and he 'might do something he might regret.'
I thought he was serious and messaged him. Shortly afterward, I get a private message saying "Play along". Inside this, a plan was devised. Someone suggested to make a fake article.
Now, I know what you're thinking... "Holy crap! This is some Sam Pepper 'Killing Best Friend Prank' shit! You should be ashamed of yourself!" Well, I am ashamed.
We knew we could get suspended... We knew it was wrong, yet we fucking did it anyway. Someone even put in the reminder about respect that GeekyGuy wrote. Well, that shit didn't get read, because the grand shitpost kept flowing. The real kicker was that there was also a Skype conversation. Sadly, I don't have the messages anymore, so I can't give summaries to it. The PM convo wasn't that interesting, just a bunch of shits and giggles. I guess one of the poorly edited articles was on an actual suicide, which led to the ban of a few people. The thread was reported, and was later closed.

YET ANOTHER APOLOGY:
I posted an apology on behalf of those who were in on the 'prank'. Truth be told, I regret it. If they were truly sorry for their actions, they should've spoken for themselves. I am sorry for what I have done. I know that saying this means fuck all on the internet, but I feel the need to say that a year later, I still am disgusted with what I've done. I've talked about this when I got un-suspended, but now's a good time to speak of things. I didn't address my 2 'dupe accounts'... My suspension occurred at a bad time. My internet was giving me shit, so I tried to make another account to nab my answers. It obviously didn't work. I am EXTREMELY thankful for the mercy p1ngpong bestowed upon me. Rather than banning me for it, he simply extended my suspension by a day. p1ng, if you're reading this, my utmost apologies for being a dumb cunt. I'm sorry for wronging you all.
