A Public Apology

[Larry Fitz]

If you conduct a public poll, no matter what the choices are, someone will pick each of them. The two people who were so insensitive and closed minded were just fulfilling statistical responsibility, there has to be one or two closed-minded, insensitive people out there in any situation....

Chicken Broth is probably easiest and then build your way up through chicken and rice and then chicken noodle, and finally up to fried chicken... yeah... fried chicken... um... I gotta go...

it certainly seems to me that the mods are not only not offended, but genuinely supportive.

 

[dsfriii]

I second Nightfalls statement.

 

[Orias]

Yeah, just ignore the others who bicker for no reason & get well soon!

 

[Dinkeldog]

I hate me, too, posts, but, uh, "Me, too!"

Honestly, Ryan, I'd rather be kept up to date, just as I was thankful for anything madriel would tell us about Holy Bovine. Maybe a good tack is to try to keep things in one post in General and we'll work from there. If it gets too long, we'll play it similarly to the Gary Gygax Q&A threads and the Hivemind threads.

Look for an e-mail from me, I want to take a couple things offline.

Man, don't waste your energy with needless apologies. Focus on getting better, and ignore any jerks who either (a) don't care about community members who are having a damn rough time or (b) can't figure out what "OT" or "Medical Update" mean. Please continue to keep us up to date.

Oh, and remember that there's always room for Jello.

I am sorry if I offended anyone. Someone mentioned in this thread about what are my posts about the D20 Community.

I've been around about the same time as you (lurking since before RPG Planet).

Last time I checked, the messageboards are linked under the "Community" banner on the front page. The boards are populated by posters--some familiar to the older members, some newer and fresh. I think some of the newer members haven't quite embraced the community yet, and that might have been where that came from.

When I think about the message boards, I don't think about rules discussions, or strange links someone posted, or even the bazillionth thread about how Rangers (formerly) got the shaft.

I think about the Chairman who left us too early. I think about how ALL the news I got about the terrorist attacks on New York came from people on the boards and about how some of the members were close to ground zero. I think about my good friend Cor Azer who I met through theboards and of my friend Wippit Guud who I've yet to meet.

Whether people like it or not, these message boards are about community.

Please continue to keep us updated on your health, and I hope you feel better.

Don't stress out on it, AB. We're all pulling for you!

Ryan-

You've got nothing to apologize for. Those of us who want to be kept up to date on how you are doing are here, and that includes the moderators. Don't let a few people make you feel bad about your updates. Keep us up to date, and we'll be here for you.

Ryan, do you have a dietician with HIV experience working with you in addition to your doctor? I think it might be a big help!

As always take care,
