Long Time, No See

**reuben_tate** · 10-6-2011, 10:10 PM

Hello, I don't know if any of you remember me, but I have something to say. I've been a member of the site for a little over three years. It wasn't really until after the site has gone back up back in 2010 that I tried to become a more active person in the community by participating more in the forum discussions to establish myself in the community, to become acquainted with the members, to learn a few tips, and to contribute my own ideas. Later, at around January or February of 2011, I started posting in the garbage bin since I found the humor appealing and I wanted to join in on the "fun." However, the sub-community in the g-bin didn't enjoy my style of humor and I was banned from the g-bin community as of March 4th of this year and I am still banned from the g-bin community to this day. I decided that I didn't need the g-bin to enjoy posting in the other forums, so I continued to post in the other forums that I typically post in. However, because of the fact that there were many people who were part of the g-bin sub-community and part of the sub-communities of the other forums that I post in, those people attacked and whittled at my reputation (whatever I had left of it.) I tried to establish the fact that the material I post in the g-bin as opposed to other forums are substantially different and that what was in the g-bin, should be kept in there. That wasn't the case though. Things got to the point where I couldn't even face the community anymore without me having the feeling of complete and utter embarrassment and shame. I decided that I should just wait until I was un-banned from the g-bin. I thought by then everyone would forget about what happened. However, the sticky stating who's been banned from the g-bin hasn't been updated in months and I don't think that's going to change for quite awhile, if at all. It's been 1/2 a year already though and I've been dying on the inside, watching from the outside while the community progresses. I've decided that I can't stand this waiting around and worrying. I sincerely apologize for my terrible sense of humor, my noobishness over the years, and any other troubles I may have caused people. I hope you guys can forgive me for what I have done. I know I wasn't an avid poster or anything, but my greatest fear now is that no one will remember me even remotely, and that I'll have to start off with square one, being treated like a noob. Meanwhile, while I was gone, I've continued to play the game in the hope to build my skill so when I do return, I'll at least be a little more respected. I'm still only D1 material in tourneys, but still I think I've improved quite a bit. ^_^ Also, I hope to maybe make some more valuable contributions to the community, perhaps by stepping songs which is what I've been interested in but never got around to. But I feel like I can only contribute to the community if I can gain the forgiveness and support of my fellow members.

I know this is a pain to read, but it is something that I've been waiting to say for six months already.

tl;dr: My rep got screwed causing me to leave the community. I'm back now, and I ask you for your support and forgiveness.

Yeah, I definitely remember you reuben!
I wish you luck in rebuilding your skill after your FFR hiatus - definitely looking forward to seeing you as a part of the community again :]

There are gbin bans again? Sweet

Also lol gbin

Im sure you're fine. No one should take the thin seriously. I don't know who's running it now but chance is the people running it are the rejects from the old gbin

**Emo_Saur_** · 10-6-2011, 10:23 PM

It's so hard to get banned from that.

**Ziergdsx18** · 10-6-2011, 10:37 PM

Not that hard. Just say the magic word and b&.

**lumphoboextreme** · 10-6-2011, 11:18 PM

Thanks! I remember you, but it's going to take me awhile to get a lot of other people since I tend to remember people by their avatar rather than their username, and I bet alot of people have changed their avatar in the mean time. I just need to re-familiarize myself. Also, the fact that I haven't been involved in the community doesn't mean I haven't been playing, I've been practicing while I was gone. >=D

I don't even want to view the threads in there anymore, let alone post in their. Things are just too messed up in there.

Banned from g-bin? Mad skillz, brah. Can't say I know you, let alone remember you, but I think you are deserving of a clean slate after that heartfelt apology.

I was playing the game, but it was the community that I missed.

Exactly. I've been bottling up this feeling for the past six months and I guess it just all gushed out all at once. XD Also, since some people may have forgotten about me, I can easily start off with the right "new" first impression.

**PaperclipGames** · 10-7-2011, 06:16 AM

It certainly is a first impression for me, as I only got active around here like a few weeks ago. :P
Wb then. :3
