As I understand, all of us go through tough times and sometimes wish to state their remorse for their actions. That's perfectly acceptable, however recently I've noticed a lot of people are simply making apology topics if there has been some kind of misunderstanding ingame or on the forums. I believe that prevention of the misunderstandings in the first place is the best course of action to follow.
The players here are real people too, so they will have issues at home at one time or another - for the sake of your own enjoyment on the server, try not to mix up real life conflicts with ingame ones. Try and talk to somebody about your problems if you have to.
A lot of the players are teenagers and as a result will be affected by natural hormonal changes which are part of growing up, so please try and understand that being on the server or on the forums whilst angry will only really cause detriment to you, if you feel that you can't handle it, take a break for a few minutes and return. Gaming is supposed to be an addition to your life, not a replacement - try not to let the game affect you domestically.
Having said that, teenagers also like to be rebels and take recreational drugs as part of their lifestyle, as far as I know the Argonath HQ will not accept the apology you make if you come on the server drunk or stoned and rulebreak, several admins in the past have lost their rights for this. For this reason, I advise you all not to come online if you cannot handle a drink or two.
You are not obliged to apologise if you do not feel truly sorry for what you have done. I've seen a lot of topics made over the last two weeks where it is pretty distinguishable who is regretting their actions and who is looking for forgiveness, so that they can continue doing what they were saying sorry for in the first instance. If you really wish to atone, then I suggest that you show this via your actions and not by demanding for exculpation. There will be some people who do not believe what you are saying thus be ready for any criticism made in an apology topic, report any flaming instead of flaming back.
Whilst I think it takes a certain level of valour to make these topics, it makes completely no difference how many topics you make or how many times you say you are sorry if you do not stick to your words. Strive to make sure that the promises you make are not over-demanding or else you may find yourself in a bit of a pickle once people start realising you haven't lived up to your words.
I sell the things you need to be, I'm the smiling face of your TV. I'm the Cult of Personality. I exploit you; still you love me,
I tell you one and one makes three. I'm the Cult of Personality. Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi, I'm the Cult of Personality. Neon lights, a Nobel Prize, when a leader speaks, that leader dies. You won't have to follow me. Only you can set you free.
