The Buddhachat apology.

edited January 2010 in General Banter
You know i was reminiscing the other day about the old days at Buddhachat we had some fun times and some bad time there, To some extent I'm glad the place has gone as it was turning into a slug fest with people being tetchy, pathetic and idiots ( That's just me ) I would like to formerly apologise for being such a fool on there i realize i upset many people and deeply regret any harm caused Ive moved on to a fresher start lets hope everyone else can as well.

Peace ? :o

    Oooh, where do we begin.

    There is much which I regret about Buddhachat:
    Being an asshole at times.
    Thinking I was an oppressed minority being bullied when I was bullying an oppressed minority.
    Being 'hostile' or arrogant when I thought I was 'right'.

    There is also much I really enjoyed:
    Meeting many new friends, some of whom are still friends.
    Learning a HUGE amount about Buddhism outside of my own narrow experience.
    Having lots of laughs.

    On the other hand, I now have a good relationship with several people with whom I had a terrible relationship at BC. Long may it last.

    I regret that it passed, but everything does. There are lessons to be learned and I am slowly learning to avoid past mistakes. ;)

    It's Malalu, Caz. For some odd reason, I took a different name here. (sort of like when we are constantly given more Dharma names - shrugs shoulders :p)

    We've been here over six years now. I'd say it has already "turned out," and it did so quite nicely. ;)
