I'd sooner cut my wrists...

Posted 07-22-2008 at 10:06 AM by Willravel

The first version of my first blog seemed to have been written badly. I meant to communicate that I was back, that I was going to do what it takes to never be banned again, and that I was still Willravel.

What people seemed to take away from it was that I was gloating. As if I'd bested someone and was bragging about it. Nothing in the world could be father from the truth. I'd sooner cut my wrists than do something so blatantly disrespectful and ungrateful, but I'm surprised that people think I would do something like that.

Let me make one thing clear: I've never been more humbled than I was over the past few days, online or in real life. Not only did I see consequences for my actions, but I also saw that many people on TFP are devoted to making it a better place. I respect these people a great deal. I want to contribute positively to TFP and be just as devoted.

The sheep story

Posted 07-22-2008 at 12:07 PM by The_Jazz

About 3 years ago, I was at a bar with some clients and a coworker. We were about 20 miles due west of The Middle of Nowhere, so it was pretty rural. Eventually, the clients left, and my coworker and I hung out since the music was good but not obnoxious and Golden Tee was calling our names.

We had a pitcher of beer that we were about halfway done with. I only mention that because in hindsight I think that thirst was the reason that the local approached us.

This sort of scarey looking middle-aged dude sauntered over and struck up a conversation. Apparently he was a local farmer and picked us out as two out-of-towners (duh, we were the only ones wearing khakis). He seemed nicer than he looked, so we sat down with him and chatted. And even bought a new pitcher.

So we get done talking sports and cars, and there's a lull in the conversation. That's when the dude points across the bar at a guy sitting alone and says "See that guy over...

I'm back.

So yeah, I'm back on TFP. Expect some eggshell walking for the time being as I earn back some trust that was lost. Still, don't expect Willravel to disappear. I'm still Willravel; I still have alarming questions about 9/11, strong views about religion, socialist leanings, a smile and a kind, honest word for anyone who wants it, and a large group of friends here that I wouldn't trade for the world.
