Hi there,
I have made a few mistakes in the past, however I think this has been right up there.
Nostalgia brought me back a year ago to this community of SAMP to try re-live some old memories, however in doing so I lost sight of the fact that as a veteran player I overlooked what was most important and made a silly mistake. With a lot given to me in terms of responsibility in the past and players who may have respected me, I think I may have lost it all.
I was a tad bit too busy trying to have fun to worry about the implications some things may have. Not so much in terms of punishment (although it may be serious), but more so in how I made other people feel.
After a year now, after remembering the times I had, not just to have fun myself, but with other players and making friends with people, I realised my mistakes and have learnt from them, allowing me to be ready to actually admit to what I did, to try turn a new leaf.
A year or so ago, I was involved in an incident same as:

- http://www.argonathrpg.eu/index.php?topic=110211.msg1744956#msg1744956
It was during SAPD role-play, along with Vince and Oliver, whom I consider very good friends. I got a bit heated due to the back and forth response as well and during our CB Radio chat, said a few things about the person in question in bad taste to defend them.
Later on, perhaps hours or days, I was banned for the reason stated, which in time I have come to realise was justified, even though at the time I did not agree with it. It's something I would have realised in the past, but this time, I was careless, which was where I went wrong.
It's been a few years since I first started playing and I like to think even if I make mistakes (even if it was a year ago), I tend to learn from them far quicker than I used to. So I'll man up and present this as my public apology to DarkShadowBlade. I'm not sure if I'll return to SAMP though or Argonath at all permanently (if I get unbanned), but I sure would like to talk to people I once knew again, now and then.
DSB - I hope we can start afresh, as it isn't worth creating such a bad atmosphere on a game, so I hope you can forgive me for what I said. I should have known better, so I apologise.

You used to be a good guy. With this ban, you went from the top to the bottom..
Was it really worth it? I doubt it.
Can we trust you and see the old Leroy in action?

Hey Cyril,
To be honest with you, that was the reason I didn't come back until a year later - Guilt. Although on first reactions I wasn't happy about the ban, I quickly came to realise (as logic kicked in), that it was on me, and even so on me being an experienced player, knowing the rules.
I had an obvious feeling to defend my friends and support them however in the heat of it all I made a mistake. The reason I kicked myself about it most was because I used used to help enforce these rules, being away for so long without much thought contributed towards misjudging the outcome of such behaviour, strictly speaking about upsetting another player - Is it worth it in any means? No, which is what I needed to remember.
Having this time off, I feel like I have remembered what I stood for; fairness and respect. This ban was fair, and I hope to regain the respect I may have lost.
I won't try to defend my actions, but once in a while good guys do make mistakes, it's how we learn from them is what counts, which I hope to get a chance to do so moving forward and avoid making more.
