Like the title says I'm pretty sure I'm done. Going silent. Tired of getting beaten up every time I open my mouth. If you need me for any reason you can still PM me here.

Take a break, recharge your batteries, and you may change your mind. Good luck, man.

I apologize if I have added to it in any way. The power of the Internet Dickwad Theory... :/

Hey! Who's been giving you a hard time? We all have a lot of love for you SirGuido. As has been said maybe take some time to recharge your batteries, but we'll miss you. That's not meant to sound like a guilt trip. You don't need to post here, but it's good to know you are still around for PM ... Stay well.

You are a part of Happyjacks as much as most of the hosts. You will be deeply missed and I for one hope you come back.

Despite best intentions, it didn't work. I was still banned from the Discord. Oh well.

Ahhh, I assume the discussion in question happened on Discord? but to have someone ban you? that's some seriously fucked up shit (by the person who has got you banned, not your good self). I can only reiterate what everyone else has said above, you are a far more tolerant person than I - and all the better for it. Aaron

Kainguru If you'd like to know what happened please message a mod. Mate, I’m not taking sides I just think, as a general rule, banning people is bit heavy handed that’s all. As to what’s happened? Yeah I’ll settle for pm explanations - it’s wise to keep the discord discord separate from the forum The original post did make it seem to be a forum issue - which was perplexing to say the least (as in ‘did I miss a thread or something’).

Aaron I see zero reason why you need to message a moderator. If you're interested, just ask. I have no problem telling my side of the story. I have nothing to hide. And while yes, it was mostly a Discord issue, I was getting things from multiple angles and decided it was best to step away from everywhere. Others saw it in a different light. Nothing I can do about that now. Life goes on as they say.

Nothing I can do about that now. Life goes on as they say. I have issues with Discord - the same issues I have with Twitter: the format of the service is designed to practically demand an on going dialogue which, TBH, I see as an unintended trap for misunderstandings. you see it all the time on Twitter, one badly worded tweet and a storm ensues and no one seems to ever want to just leave it be and move on. To be clear I'm not criticising the people that use those services I'm criticising the format of those services as, unfortunately, giving vent to the more negative side of human nature. We've all got a negative side, after all it's human nature, and Twitter et al (ie Discord) seem to plug into that zietgiest more so than other social media's. I think successful ('professional') Discord users and Tweeter's have to exercise a lot of personal restraint to avoid the pit falls. More often as not it's less about there being different 'sides' and more about there being different '(mis)understandings' Aaron
