Sorry for forum trolling!

Yesterday night, as I lay in bed unable to fall asleep, I started thinking about things I had been doing over the course of the day, and I realized that I had spent pretty much all of my free time trolling on chess.com. And that also applied to the day before yesterday, and the day before that, and ...

I had an epiphany of sorts - all of a sudden the question popped into my head - why do I do all this trolling on chess.com? For a while it was fun, but over time it's started to get dull, and I'm starting to run out of ideas. Then I thought about all of the people on chess.com who have had to witness my trolling and attempts at trolling and put up with it... and I couldn't help feeling a sense of guilt. And in the end I realized, well, trolling is starting to become dull for me, and for other people it's always been disruptive and annoying... so why am I still doing it? And so, after careful consideration, I've decided to quit trolling.

First off, I would like to offer my most sincere apologies to everyone who has been annoyed or offended by my trolling. I meant no harm, and I'm genuinely sorry if I have caused any. As a sign of both my guilt and my determination to start anew and do something useful with my life, I hereby take the following pledge:

I, Macer75, hereby solemnly swear that starting from today, I will never engage in any activities related to trolling, on chess.com, on any other website or through any other means possible.

Signed,
