I'am writing to apologize for my behavior on TNet.

The manner I spoke to many of you was not only unprofessional, but also completely without any justification.

I have been a member and a guest off and on, with Tnet for years.

I have grown to admire and respect many of you of the great insights and discussions you have shared with everyone on TNet.

I reacted right away without thinking and judged you for your decisions. It was wrong of me to do so. In the same time, it is not my decision to judge any of you with what methods you have, that work for you.

I would like everyone on Tnet to know that I accept full responsibility for everything that has happened, and that I would like you to accept my sincerest apology.

Sincerely,

John Arizona

I see you only have a total of 7 posts, doesn't seem like it could be all that bad in 7 times at bat. Perhaps I'm missing something???

Could have been in timeout by Tnet Mods? At any rate, nice to see someone step up to accept responsibility AND make a public apology!

John Arizona got temp timeout for insults and attacks. He returned as oldsodbuster a week later and apologized to forum.

Because I believe John's apology is sincere I cut ban time to 2 weeks...

Oldsodbuster is banned but John can return as John.

Insults and attacks were deleted.

We can all lose our mind for a moment. It is too bad that the effects of that last a lot longer. I will look forward to seeing you after your time out.

Yes, good to see someone stand up and say the S-word :thumbsup:

I think on most other sites, the banned person would have just walked away / found another forum etc etc, but this just goes to show what a great site TNet is if a member wants to take public action to be allowed back!

We all get caught up in the Red Mist at some time, and like families we can argue and disagree at times - but that's why TNet is like a family :thumbsup:
