The Sorry and Forgiveness Thread

[Mayu]

Not RP related, but would like to apologize to the raid I was in today around 4:30 pm EST for completely mucking it up and wiping everyone.

 

My problem is that my mother called during the raid, and like an idiot I answered it. However, she is older and we have a lot of elderly folks in our family and she doesn't normally call during this hour so I thought I'd better check to see what she wanted. When I exchanged pleasantries with her for a good 20 minutes I realized I was in over my head, my attention was being too divided and I explained to her I had to go. Of course, she didn't let me go. She had to ask me 90 thousand questions despite telling her over and over again I had to go...oh, older mothers.

 

ANYWAY, so sorry to my raid. I'm sure you replaced me swiftly though as thank GOODNESS I'm only DPS. I'm not normally an idiot but today I was.

I'm sorry for being a bit naive at times, especially with a couple of my characters. It's not that I am trying to be all 'sweet and innocent' but I just usually make a RP character and let the role play form them. For some, they have seen the dangers in life but for others, they haven't.

 

I usually get nervous of people thinking that myself, OOCly, is oblivious to how things are around them and sometimes can judge a bit too quickly. I sort of withdrew myself from some things because of that fear. And I apologies for that too, for fear controlling me instead.

 

There are a lot of people I enjoy on FFXIV and it has been an amazing experience, I can't wait to learn more and enjoy it further while making new friends. :love:

*hugs*

 

Sounds like you have things right.

 

Quite a few play like that. I personally sketch out my characters history, just the main points and then fill in the detail as RP progresses. This locks those details in and over time I get a really rich tapestry of backstory that is relevant to the world and RP.

 

Also I totally get the OOC knowledge vs IC knowledge and actions. I would even go so far as to say I use the OOC knowledge to make the IC dumb char open up RP and lore for others.

I figured I should step up to the plate.

 

I'm sorry to all the company I've taken for granted. I'll say it straight out, since starting FFXIV, I've had fallings out. I've made mistakes, and I've let my mood dictate my words and actions. As a result, I've alienated and pushed a few people away.

 

It's down to a point where companion ship feels like a clock ticking down. I know it doesn't have to be like that. Everything's about attitude and decision, I realize.

 

That said, I'mma try to be better. Try to handle things with more levity, and try to burn less bridges.

 

To those I've wronged and can't patch things up, I'll simply do what I can do: Say sorry and move on.

[Zhavi]

Sorry I've been such a flakey mcflakerson of spazzy disappearing acts.

 

Maybe I should change my sig to "I'm not dead. I'm getting better."

 

[Arter Wood]

As a Canadian I have to live up to the stereotype, sorry. /s

 

I forgive anyone that says sorry and means it - moving on is a good thing, you guys! Feel good about yourselves, even if you still somehow do those bad things, acknowledgement of your problems is a key step in stopping it.

 

I'm sorry for being an ass sometimes. Random, unnecessary things that may be splurted out.

I'm sorry I just lurk and never really contribute anything to the RPC.  :tonberry:

[Seraphine Felstar]

I'm sorry for being a little late on this, but...

 

I wanted to give an apology to the members of Outer Heaven back in 1.0 for the sour note on which the linkshell ended. I'm also very sorry for the way I role played my character at times as I felt she was not always the nicest person. Moreover, my OOC relationship at that time made it difficult to do what I felt was right, and I don't think that was fair on everyone. I feel like I had a lot of wonderful people supporting me during that time and I wish I could have done better. 

 

I also apologize for taking a 2 year break and being so flaky in and out since then. Part of it Nebulous, Crystalline, Soliloquy, OpenRP and a lot of others have been very patient with me, and I hope I can contribute more on the whole.

I'm sorry for a lot of things really. The fact I barely dodged an rp bullet...well I dunno made me think.

 

First of all, those unfulfilled promises and meet ups arrangements, etc. It's worse because I'm aware that I'm already living 12 hours ahead of EST and somehow still try to make and miss appointed thingies. I mean I don't mind staying up until ass end of the early mornings and that's worth it for me but I dunno about the other party when it's their turn to really stay up to rp with me.

 

Next, I dont know if this is a good or bad thing but I guess being spontaneous with my characters and what they do. I swear to god it isnt my intent to be malicious or derail your plots and ideas. Neither annoy nor irritate you. 'I was preoccupied with whether or not I could that I didnt stop to think if I should.' It isn't an excuse, it'll never be so I'll just keep the whole experimentation thing to a minimum if not nonexistence.

 

Then we have my altoholism. This ties into the first point, sure but I'm sorry if I'm not on a certain character enough times or at the right times of the day. I'm sorry if this makes me look noncommital and I guess I understand if it chokes the rp opportunities I have across all three...soon to be four of them. That said Im not dropping any of them now. The opportunities are limited but there are still people who've formed bonds with them and I'm not going to end any of them.

 

I'm really sorry for the bridges I accidentally burned and strained ooc relationships.

 

EDIT: Of course my phone's messing the formatting.

[Viola]

I'm sorry for my eccentricities. I know it may be a bit difficult with the way I act, and I believe that it may be affecting my relationships on the forum.

I'm sorry for being so potentially difficult, guys.
