    For those who wish to leave comments in my hubs your more than welcome to, and i'll certainly reply to them.  As for forums, this will be my last official post in forums as i no longer feel the need to be here.  i won't go into details as i don't want to incriminate anyone.  i will say that if you want to keep in touch, your all welcome to e-mail me anytime.  anyway, i just wanted to release this message saying that it was an honor and privilege to meet you all.

    when i originally signed on to hubpages, i only saw it as a means to make some extra cash.  however, what i never expected to find was a good friends and a place where i felt i belonged.  which i did, when i started to talk to many of you in forums.  sadly, due to a misunderstanding, some users feel that im a jerk now. 

    it's kind of ironic because in real life people see me that way, but online people never saw me like that.  however, maybe the people i know in real life are right.  maybe i am just an ignorant stupid jerk.  look, i never meant to hurt anyone here.  therefore, to prevent any further harm, i won't be in forums anymore. 

    if you want to keep in touch, do it through e-mails or through comments on my hubs.  or the comments i'll leave on some of yours.  other than that, that's it.  anyway, i hope you all have a nice day, and hopefully a happy holiday.

    once again, it was an honor and privilege to meet and know all of you.  its a shame i don't  belong here with you guys, like i previously thought.  however, i've been wrong before.  plus, like i said, i was originally here just to blog anyway.  therefore, for those that i offended, i appologize and you will never see me in forums again after this post.  thank you all for your time and goodnight.

      Leave the forums if you feel you must, but know that a broken fence is never mended by walking away from it.

      You apologized for your past transgressions, which I feel is an effort to mend the fence. Why not complete the process by showing yourself capable of growth and worthy to be friends with?

      We all make mistakes, and sometimes things said online don't come out the way we hope they would. Still, there is always a chance to apologize, make amends, and to learn from our mistakes.

      Did you give up on walking when you fell the first time? I should think not or you wouldn't be here standing before us today. Wipe off your knees and get back on your feet, I say. Make something of the opportunity by showing your willingness to stand tall rather than crawl away.

      There is no honor gained by slipping away ... one only gains honor by conquering one's own shortcomings, becoming a better person in the process. smile

      No one Knows, what is the nature of any person in real life but it's our 'Thought of thinking' that mad us to feel like that.
      All the person here are selfish in themselves including me, All are testing your nature if you are good in fighting their words & or No words situation you will be respected otherwise oppositely .

      I also got caught one time in the past here with my previous profile & had been damaged mentally but Then I started spending most of my time in finding what is going on in the world & the result is :

      "The human's who are hard in themselves & have no effect of other human's words or no word situation are being respected & surviving & those who feels themselves in negative direction(like as you said in your post) are being respected up to the times till when they have not publicly announced that they are the bad, poorest etc. etc. "

      So, Man please don't lose your nature by effect of others, All are the same like you & the only thing that is different that all other feels themselves as normal & you feel a little low.

      I have certainly  not called Steven a jerk, nor have thought of him as being one. 

      This thread is a little nebulous, and too many assumptions.  I'm not into that.

    If someone talks crap about you or to you, then you let them win by backing down.  I'm not saying you have to keep an argument going.  I'm not even saying you have to talk to them at all.  Keep chatting with those people here that you respect and like, and let the others know that you are not going to be chased off. Then, you win.

    @ Steven:

    Emotions are but waves of emotion
    They come in, filling the pool
    Overflowing, not knowing where to go
    Eventually, the waves flow back into the ocean
    Leaving the once full pool empty
    But not so as to dry out
    Just enough to allow clarity
    Emotions are but an expression of nature

    This is for you as much for others.  Stop, step back and don't make any final decisions.  That'll be a mistake.  Trust me.

    @ Mega -- That's the problem with life when there's no face to face....reading "type" leaves out the emotion and body language.  Many things can be contrued incorrectly.  I'm not being that sensitive...at the moment at least lol

    @ Bacon -- Just consider her situation at the moment.  She's just lost her papa a few weeks back.  She's still grieving heavily.  Then, she has her in-laws arriving last night who don't respect or value her.  She has a huge load on her right now.  She didn't need that last night.  Nor did I.  We all make mistakes, but how we learn is more important.  Deleting yourself won't change anything.  Stay on.  Things will work itself out.  Running doesn't do any good.

    hello all.  after much thinking.  i think i over reacted to this whole situation.  it's just that i have a tendency to over analyze things in my head, that it messes with me when i get into a conflict with a situation.  to be clear, i apologize for anything that i've done to anyone. i already told a few select people this, when i spoke earlier today.  i was speaking out of emotion instead of rational thought.

    you see in real life, everyone treats me like an idiot.  yet here, i seem to come out respected.  i don't know why to be honest.  i guess a part of me was affraid that one bad situation was going to ruin it all for me.  however, i shouldn't do that.  as one hubber said in this forum.  i can't run away from things.  i think for the past few years, that's all i've been good at. however, i won't this time.  look, im sorry for getting you all involved in this stupid situation.

    please don't post blame on anyone here.  this is all my fault.  therefore if you have anything negative say sneakrocksolid, then please aim at me.  i was the one who started this.  no, im not singling you out because of past regressions or anything like that.  just asking you to please stop this quarelling. 

    i made a mistake of escalating this situation to be bigger than what it ever should've been.  i know that i can't undo all that's happened, but i do know this.  i never meant to hurt anyone.  and if i could do it all over again, i know i would've handled it differently.  like a friend once told me, all you can do is learn from your past.  don't live in it.  always look towards the future.  i guess i need to start living by that motto.

    Steve, you need to get rid of some of the people in your "real" life. People who make you feel like an idiot are not your friends, and you seem like a very nice and intelligent guy. I've had to make some difficult decisions and remove some people (including family) from my life, and have no regrets about it. We're only here once, so far as we know, and you need to take care of yourself. No one else will.

      There are so many people with low self esteem that people like Steve a classic "nice guy" pick on, gives them a little bit of a rise, because they are pathetic. They wouldn't do it to someone like me, as I would be unpleasant back.
      I remember at School I used to bash the Bullies, that picked on weak kids, oddly enough because I never told on them. My Credo I was always in the crap for the damage I did to them.

        i don't take ANYTHING from people seriously in forums, except for a few close people.  what happened was a mere misunderstanding that escalated into something far worse than it should have been.  i apologized and admitted it, so lets move on.  if you want to criticize me for that fine.  however, i don't think it's fair your labeling this as a mere "hey someone picked on me." bit.  when in reality it sounds like you don't know anything.  therefore, please don't make any assumptions until you realize the whole story.  no, this is not an insult or anything like that, so please don't take it as such.  merely an explanation.

      well it wasn't to be honest. it was all just a misunderstanding over a stupid practical joke that another person did.  i won't say who, since i don't want to rat out anyone.  however, it's over now. i worked things out, and i never should have made this forum.  there's nothing to worry about i promise.

    the forums can get out of hand sometimes, but everyone soon forgets, stay, i am still here, and i have made a fool of myself in the forums lots of times, that is life.  We are a community, and their are rows sometimes, but your input will be missed.
