I am sorry for everything

Hey guys,

I want to say I am sorry for everything.

I think I upset some people here in this forum with my post or replies in threads. I don’t mean to get anybody mad at me. I like all of you guys here. This is a great Forum.

There people here that attack my grammar, my complaints in baseball mogul thread, asking too many questions, etc.

I love this forum and maybe it’s best I don’t post here anymore. i am better off just reading the post in this forum only.

Some of you guys are cool with me and some just don’t like me. i never attack anyone here or offended anyone.

I love sports and love sports sim games.

i have work hard on my grammar and work hard in not asking a lot of questions. i try to give more opinions on things when i reply to people's thread.

I got some people mad at me because I said that trades and stats are still not correct on patch 8.15. But I was just mentioning what others who have the game is saying at sports mogul forum. Others can complain and report about bugs and its ok. If I do it I get rip. It’s so unfair.

i think some people have a personal thing with me and i never did anything to them. And no matter what I post or reply in a thread I will get attack and put down.

Like I said I don’t want anybody mad at me anymore, so maybe its best I just stop posting and replying.

Again I am so sorry if i made anyone mad.

If you guys don’t want me to post or reply to any thread anymore, just please let me know and I wont anymore.

If you guys just want me to go away, just let me know.

Thanks

Why would you care if you happened to annoy somebody on an online message board? If anything they will get over it.

Jbmagic, this relationship can continue, but it's going to take some work on both of our parts. I told you to seek professional help for your grammar, and you got it. I know we fight sometimes, but I think love will prevail over all. I mean, you're a good guy-You've never cheated, you bring me flowers, and trust me---You're a great lover. Just be you!!

I think all the grammar-related posts are in good humor, and/or intended as "constructive criticism." Most of us realize that you are not a native English speaker -- I know for a fact that your English is far better than any attempt I could make in a second language.

Stick around, don't let people get to you, and have a good time.

I'll cut right to the chase. Is English your primary language or not? There has been a sentiment growing here that English is your primary language and that your grammar is the way it is because you are lazy.

Again, I don't know what is the truth. I'm just curious and thought it might help if you cleared the air on the subject.

I recognize you from the Grey Dog and OOTP boards and you really seem to be a nice guy. If someone wants to make rude comments about your grammar then so be it, don't let that prevent you from posting here.

I don't think the grammar problems are the real issue. I think the real issue is the tone of your posts...they tend to be very melodramatic. Perhaps that's unintentional on your part, but that's the way they read to me. I certainly wouldn't let others opinions of that drive me away from a forum I enjoyed posting on though.

That about sums up my existance at the FOFC. Dish it out and expect to get it dished right back. Learn to appreciate and enjoy the honesty and bluntness you can get at a message board that you rarely receive face to face.

who cares if your grammer sucks on a message board. Uh oh, someone that I will never meet in real life is criticizing my grammer.

We are all perusing and posting on a message board whose existence is attributable to a text sim football game.

Doesn't really give the impression that we are all multi-tasking this, working on new ways to defeat terrorism, and a cure for cancer at the same time, does it?

Keep posting and remember that there is not anyone here that is not flawed (In my case highly flawed), and when I see other people quick to point out someone's shortcomings, it tells me they are insecure with themselves and their own imperfections.

Admitting you are not perfect is the first step in realizing that you are just 1 of roughly 6 Billion and counting

You mean that even though I've been told I'm one in a million, that there are over 6,000 people exactly like me out there?

My future wife's family is from Sicily also. Your status on this board is like my future marriage : We don't believe in divorce, but we do believe in being widowed.

jb, I was just kidding around with you and hope I didn't upset you. I made that post because, in that thread, you have criticized Baseball Mogul almost daily, without even buying it.

It just seems like you have spent a lot of time/energy/posts for a $20 game that you have not purchased. Again, I apologize for not making my post more lighthearted and hope you continue to post here.

I must say, your English is molto bene, compared to mio Italiano. I lived in Milano for two years, but never could parlo as well as I would like.

Vorrei bere una birra con lei, arrivo en LA subito...

lol, i didnt even bother to read what his predicament was, i assumed it was a family-related thing so i gave my stock reply for that sort of situation. now after reading your post i wound up reading what his problem actually was and it has totally nothing to do with his family. i guess that's a good thing.
