Ogaden Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Months of intermittent warfare, both in diplomatic channels and the more conventional variety, have heated passions across the board in NPO's multifarious and prolonged conflicts. I have let these passions get the better of me lately however, and I have resolved to act in a more professional manner. The dirty business of war shall remain unchanged, mercy or quarter is of course not in the cards, but I would like to resolve to make this "Nothing personal, just business". I would like to apologize to a few of our alliance's most hated adversaries to whom my civility escaped me in the heat of debate. Electron Sponge in particular I insulted a few times undeservedly and ad-hominem, and it is beneath all of our dignity to reach such lows of discourse. Yours truly, James Dahl Ugaas of all Ogaden Protector of Kelafo Grand Master of the Order of the Stale Twinky & etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Janova Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I could make some cynical comment about how this shouldn't need a resolution, but actually it is good to see people realising their own faults, so well done to you and keep it up beyond the month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asriel Belacqua Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) I do not know you, but I think now would be a good time to start. You, good sir, have shown today that you are truly more honorable than most. The ability to "own up" to one's mistakes, admit you were wrong, so to speak, is one of the greatest accomplishments a person can make. By making this resolution, in my opinion, you are better than most people who are simply content with who they are or who they have become. I applaud you, and wish you luck in your endeavor. May it work out for the best. Edited March 30, 2009 by Asriel Belacqua Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
