Not intentionally, at least. I am quoting you wherever possible, and only paraphrasing when I'm frustrated and don't feel like going back and reading through for quotes of things I've already pretty much quoted.
In complete and honest truth, whenever I paraphrase anything that anyone said, it's what I took your statements to mean. If it's not what you meant, then please correct it with quotes, or by saying, "Look, I've made no posts saying what you said here, here's the post I made at the last paraphrase you said I made, here's the next paraphrase you said I made, and there's nothing between them resembling what you think I said." It's possible that I may be attributing some things that you didn't say to you, that someone else said! My memory isn't perfect, and I'll admit that I may have bias attributing something that someone else said to you, since it makes my logic sound. If I'm doing that, it's not that I'm accusing you, then making things up to back it up, it's that I have an unsound memory of who said what, and am using that to make an accusation.

I did a lot of posting on here as a teenager, and I was pretty awful. Even after I learned, grew up, and came to be on the right side of a lot of important issues, I was still angry, abrasive, and generally increased the amount of hate in the world, in pretty unacceptable ways. On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me be better, NPF. |
