I would formally like to apologize to all the staff members and other normal members of this community for the flamewars/ arguments I start/participate in. I usually have a valid reason behind causing/ participating in such events, so let me let you know why I partake in such events.
When I was younger, I was bullied. I was always taller than my class and everyone else thought it'd be cool to pick on the tall kid. It was NEVER any physical bullying as I could easily defend myself, but it was verbal and a lot of what I was called was more or less mentally destroying me. I found it hard to make friends because everyone had labeled stupid stereotypes on me. My IRL name is Stuart so I was called things like Stuart Little (which was extremely ironic because I was not little in any form). For some reason, the name really got to me and really made me upset. I eventually managed to put it aside and have fun with it. This eventually deterred kids away from bullying me as there was no response from me for them to enjoy.
From then on, I have always chosen to defend those who I believe are being bullied in some fashion. The majority of my flamewars are me defending me beliefs or other people.
I can be hypocritical sometimes in arguments and become the bully. Sometimes things get that extreme and I can usually catch myself before I do anything to harsh, but just enough to deal out what is deserved.
Another is I flat our love to argue... the reason behind that is unknown... I was born arguing with with my mom before I could even talk.
So here is my apology and a little short story to get to know me. I probably posted this in the wrong section, but if so a mod can move it. I am more ranting about myself and what I participate in. I know it breaches rules in some forms, but I still believe in free speech, even if that right doesn't pertain to a privately owned website.
Anyways, to all of those tl;dr's, basically i argue to defend people and my beliefs. Thats it, thanks for reading.
@Tennessee, I do like you as a person, its just your beliefs contradict mine almost completely as they're complete opposites. Hopefully our arguments we've had in the past and we will have in the future won't change how we personally see each other.
@Recoil, Hopefully you can somehow build a heart to understand how your actions might effect other people. Its not always the best choice to speak out, so if you don't have nothing nice to say then don't. Thats why that flamewar started and I hope it will not happen again because I WILL jump to the rescue and defend any member of this community you decide to attack.
