Actually guys it wasn't in a thread, at least not at first, from my memory it was a disagreement me and pru had. I remember disrespecting Pru. The thing is, we (so I thought) had made all this up.
I wanted to show my geniune sincerity for all of it, I wanted to proove that I was sorry for my name calling, I lost my head and called her a name, i sent this over MSN or maybe an email or PM.
This was quite a while back, after discussing it with a friend, I realised it didn't matter what message i was trying to get across, it really didn't matter whether or not people actually listened to my point, what mattered was that my parents didn't bring me up to treat a woman with such disrespect.
I apologised. I sent emails, I constantly sent her IM's to try and someway offer my apologies. Eventually Pru was good enough to respond and say that
"lifes too short rich'' again pru was right, but from my standpoint we'd talked on MSN and PM on Joe Dios way after that incident, so from my viewpoint all was good up until about the time the religious thread came into play, she ruffled shane's feathers, and it all kicked off again.
I came out here to say this because if I think about everything that has happened, I can only remember that time I sent those derogatory remarks, me and pru had got past this to my understanding, heck, I even sent her a UK exclusive quarrell I wanted her forgiveness and understanding that no matter what disagreements we had, we could put it past us and forget about it, since we were at joe dios, i couldnt buy her a drink, so I bought her a figure from ebay uk to bury the hatchet so to speak.
This is the only incident i can recall where I resorted to name calling, again I wasn't totally proud of it, the end product was one where it made me look stupid and idiotic and in fact childish and cowardly, i lost my focus and control on the situation and i publicly apologised. I've done some stupid things here, real stupid, if anything it should be setting an example to people of how not to react to situations.
Whatever the case, it wasn't just this one incident, If prudence has told Russ about this incident, then I guess it's only with just cause that he feels pru has been hard done by,. however i'd like to know if it is this incident, whether or not he knows that me and pru had apparently settled this along time ago.
RDS seems to be eliminating the fact that prudence didnt just ruffle my feathers a few times, there were more than enough people she had issues with, so again from the shadows what looks like people are ganging up on her., when really it seems the ultimate decisions she made without consent. Upset more people than she was letting on., I don't want russell to leave, infact there have been a few people who said they were leaving and are still here today, me included.
The facts are put in front of you russell, if you leave now without discussing them, and saying exactly what you've been told and by whom., we'll just assume then that you have a hidden agenda elsewhere?
I've asked, frank has asked you not because (we're in a clique) strangley someone else springs to mind when i hear that.. so maybe your acting on bad information? but we've asked because we want to get to the bottom of all of this, it's never been Joe Dios way to simply just let things go, Prudence still can be an important member of this community and so can you! Despite everything i even posted up my thanks for her time and so did alot of people, so did Hammerfel.
So .. don't leave without at least coming out and explaining who you've been talking to or what you've been told. I've got nothing to hide here, i've already admitted for my past behaviour and if someone else is bad mouthing me .. i'd rather hear all this from them, rather than a messenger? You understand where I'm coming from?
This shouldn't be taken to PM either, things can be ''fabricated'' on PM and hidden away, I know it doesn't look great for either person slanging in public, but we need to sort this out. If you need to talk to me anyway on MSN, go for it, just send me your MSN Handle and i'll add you. Better still
