Alright, you want to know what brought that on? I am currently not feeling that well, and missed a day of work because I am sick. I am treating it with copious amounts of alcohol. I started drinking shortly before talking to PIAC, and I was continuing the whole time I was talking to him. truth be told, I thought I would regret blocking him the next day. But I don't. I feel like I have done the most right thing I could have done under the circumstances.
PIAC showed a side of himself that I had never really seen before when I was reading the chat log with her and the princess. It was really bothering me when I was reading it. I confronted him about it first thing when we began talking, as it was really bothering me. PIAC was behaving like much of what I hate about the internet culture. I quite simply DO NOT care what that girl did to bring about PIAC's wrath in the first place. I suspect that she didn't behave in a manner that PIAC liked, and he goaded her into fighting with him. But that's irrelevant. I don't really care what she did. She didn't deserve to be treated in such a fashion by someone who didn't even know her.
I backed off earlier in the conversation, because I knew that if I continued, it would result in a pretty big war. When I was arguing with him over SUPER, I was becoming more and more irritated, because his arguments were just pathetic. (seriously... an extra folder in your favorites folder is a major problem?) In the end, I became irritated enough with him to do what I didn't want to do at the start, and simply blocked him. By that point I was feeling pretty embarrassed that I had once considered him a friend. I thought I picked friends better than that.
As far as it not concerning me... I suppose you could say the same thing about some guy walking down the street watching some neo-nazi beating up some black guy. It really doesn't concern him, does it. So by your logic, he should just keep walking. By my personal code, I CANNOT do that.
Ms. Pikmin, I'm sorry. But this is a fight I simply cannot back down from. If PIAC hadn't gotten banned last night, I wouldn't even be here right now. I was prepared to walk away for good. This fight wouldn't have even gone public if PIAC hadn't made his chat log public. As far as I am concerned, this fight was between me and PIAC.
S-U-P-E-R, if you are reading this, I want you to know that I think that you and me are square now. I over-reacted when you and I fought before. Mods who use their power lightly is something that really and truly bothers me. But I also have profound respect for those who make the right choice when confronted with a difficult situation. Banning PIAC could not have been an easy thing to do, and I have nothing but respect for you for actually going through with it. You made the right choice, when I know that it would have been very difficult to do.
