I wanted to give a public apology to everyone here (including Susan and the staff) because I think conversations have gotten heated and distorted over the past few days over the site's new direction. My intention was never to fight or bitch at anyone. Last thing I wanted was for people to start fighting with each other. I love this site and the community here; therefore, I care about the direction it takes. I don't care about anything other than this community staying in tact and for us all remaining as members with mutual respect. While I am not ashamed of anything I said, I didn't mean to start a war here on the boards which is what it seemed to result in. If you were taking my feedback and constructive criticism as a personal insult of you or the site, then I'm sorry. It was not intended to come across as bitching at all as I completely support the donation function and am grateful to everyone who stepped up. I love this site and will even admit that it probably saved my life a few times. I want personally thank the staff for all that you have done and everyone who has donated to keep this site up and running. I never meant ill will to anyone and apologize if you took offense to what I have said in the previous thread. I hope some of you can understand that my intentions came from a good place even if it hasn't been received as such.
P.S. Sorry if this is in the wrong place. You may lock it if you wish. I just wanted to post this publicly to everyone as I feel all deserve an apology.
