After months of drivel, finally, a thread that has some teeth.
Like you kimiiii, I left this board a while back in part because I got fed up with what I thought was a lack of both direction and leadership on the board.
But the main reason was that there are people who populate this place who seem to be able to preach to others, but who either don't want to or can't bear to hear a dissenting view. I spoke to those people with absolute clarity in many threads, and was roundly chastised for "picking on people" and earning a reputation for being an asshole.
Like I care what people think...if you can't take honesty, it's not my problem.
To the credit of the board administration, one of my beefs seems to have been addressed, hence my return. I made no demands to forget or forgive my actions in the past: granted they are different from your circumstances, but all the same, in your case there were back room dealings that were meant to be deceptive. That was the mistake; you should have just left.
I find it rather odd you would re-appear and issue an edict to "get past it" as you are in no position to do so. Suck it up: if you want to remain a member of the board post away, and ignore what you don't like. That's the advice I got when I complained about the state of the board, I suggest you do the same. Motors has it right in his point #1. Besides, you've already substantially altered the board with your ability to get a good chunk of it deleted, I'm amazed you would attempt any further alteration of board content through what amounts to censorship of opinion.
One last point: what happened was nobody's business other than those involved. Your actions and the actions of those who wanted to misrepresent events to save face made it possible for it to be our business.
Don't conduct your life on the board.
