In 2009, when I was 12 years old on this website, I posted in this forum discussing Sonic games and was just...the absolute worst. I would like to apologize for my behavior. No one deserves that cringe. I am willing to take this blame myself, and hope that anyone I hurt or scarred in the process has been alright through these past five years.
We all have our sins and burdens, and this is mine.
If it's worth anything, I joined Gaia when I was 13 and flooded half the Final Fantasy forum with shitty threads on my first day. emotion_facepalm
I kept my old account intact so whenever I am feeling disgusted with who I am today, I just go take a gander at my old self, and instantly feel better knowing that I've been worse.
9 years ago when I just joined Gaia, I still thought the weeaboo talk was a cute thing to do (and I picked a fight with some twit in the Final Fantasy forums who thought she and her little club were the boss around there)... emotion_facepalm So don't worry, we all probably did something stupid during our 1st years of internet (we were all like 12-15 or something anyway)... I think it's pretty mature of you realizing your mistakes and actually feel bad enough to apologize for it... Really shows how much one can grow in 5 years... cat_3nodding
You're not alone in making mistakes. In my 8 years of being here (coming on 9 years in three months), I'd make completely separate topics to answer question(s) where I could have answered them in the same topic that they were asked in. Back in the day, and when I first started Gaia around age 12-13, I also made the mistake of hearing and thinking that Netflix was this kind of virtual movie theater and that it featured places for people to sit down in, in which they'd block the view of whatever I was watching at the time. Granted, that was also back when it first started and I had no idea of what it was or used it like I do now. As they say, "You live and learn". All that said, I miss stuff like Gaia's virtual movie theater. Ah, those were the days, back when Gaia wasn't a shadow of it's former self like now.
