In regards to recent events and my unacceptable behavior in the overrated games thread, I want to offer my apologies to everyone here.
My actions were inexcusable and as a moderator over at VGM, I let my zeal for games get out of control and let my usual enthusiastic and calm demeanor get riled up and degenerate into a low brow shouting match, when I should have been the better man walked away not causing any problems in the process.
I lost all control over myself (and logic) and even though restrained, it's something that shouldn't have happened and I'm sorry.
I came over here hoping to be a part of a community of people who love games just as much (and to my shock moreso) as I do, I love this site and spend literally hours tearing through the new articles posted (and sometimes yelling at the screen, or nodding in approval because of something I read) then I lurked at the messageboards for awhile getting the feel of the place, until recently when I decided to contribute articles myself for games that deserve more respect than they currently get.
However behavior like I displayed undermines my standing, my reputation, and how I would like to be known, and I will not stand for that as it was something that has been bothering me all day and I felt the need or compulsion to give a heartfelt apology to the community in general here, and Kurt, Sotenga, and Shido individually.
Not much more to be said, other than please forgive what I've done and I hope that we can move on so things can be as they were before (and hopefully better)
Thanks for reading.
