Hi! You probably don't remember me. If you do, or if we used to talk, I hope you're doing well! I was on this forum probably daily for almost 2 years from early 2007-late 2008 most likely! I came back once in 2011 but then decided that I just didn't want to be a part of the forum. Looking at my join date, I was only 10 years old when I joined. I had never even been on an internet forum before this one, and honestly, I wasn't totally sure I got it then. I was coming from only really using AIM and the like to talk with friends, so my grammar was atrocious. I used a lot of leetspeak. Like instead of "you" I used "u" and the like. I got warned for it and I got like a month long (?) temp ban for it. It was either a month or a week, but it honestly was probably a month. I remember getting put on blast by people here in regular forum posts and in PMs about how poor it was. It wasn't like I couldn't speak or write properly. I just hadn't spoken like that on the internet at the time or knew that I should have.
Now, I know we all do stupid things when we're young, but as you can see, a few years back I tried to scrub a lot of it. All my posts have been edited to say one sentence. Honestly, I still stick by that sentence. I do feel like this account is an embarrassment to me. Even though I was so young and didn't know better and was meant to learn through my experiences, I guess the fact that most of what I posted was dumb just bothers me. Maybe because I feel like it still is somewhat a reflection on me then and it was a poor one. I don't even use this specific screen name anywhere else, but I used to use something similar to it.
I asked a mod if it was possible to just delete this account entirely. Posts and all. If that's not possible, I will just go back to never using it again. But I did want to make a final post that if anyone here remembers me as an annoying member with incredibly poor grammar, then my bad. I was very young and very immature. I know in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter and maybe some don't remember, but I guess because this was the very first forum I ever joined, this forum always is in my memory. Even if I don't have a huge post count and have been gone for well over a decade.
That's all I wanted to say. If you read my entire post, thanks for reading my rambling! I'm not totally sure what I wanted to accomplish here but I wanted to get it off my chest.
