General Apologies

Sort:
Brother-Mouzon

Hello People,

Over the last month or so I have written several very scathing posts and comments, very harshly criticizing many people on this site and the site itself.  Maybe there was at least a grain of truth to some of them and maybe not.  

At this point, I don't care.  I would rather have peace of mind than anything else I can think of.

I was in a serious car accident at the beginning of October that shattered my right hand and seriously screwed up my mind, making my already volatile temper much worse than normal and making it much more difficult to play live chess since I move with my right hand.

I just want to apologize to anybody and everybody who I might have offended.  I cannot blame anybody for being angry with me.  

I should not be taking it out on y'all or anybody else for that matter (accidents happen!), but rather should just try to do the best I can, no matter what and without excuses.  

I should end every game with a compliment to my opponent for a game well played whether I win or lose, and I promise that I will try to do so with no exceptions in the future.

I would like to try to be friend to everyone that I meet.

Here, There and Everywhere as Paul McCartney once said.

 

Sincerely,

Brother Mouzon

Fair enough Brother.  Not a lot of apologies around here so good for you!  We all go through bad stretches now and then.  Best of luck with your recovery.

I wish you the speedest of recoveries.

Thank you all for your kindness and concern.  I really appreciate it.

To "Glex" above, that wasn't me who you quoted, but it could have been It seems that my problem is not unique to me.

I am hoping I will have some time to study the game over Christmas, in which case I will be playing something other than "intuitive chess" and I will be able to give a few of you some good games!

 

If I could get above 900 at bullet or blitz and stay there for few days, it would be like a dream come true!

I curse a lot too, but I don't write it. You gave me something to laugh about. Get well soon my friend, you are too tough to stay hurting.

Thank you Drope8.  If we ever meet on the squares I believe I will blunder away my queen just as a show of gratitude for the kind words.

I would normally do it out of stupidity and carelessness, but please try to think of it as involving a higher purpose this time : )

my god, what's next? 'healing trips' to help charities? literally every internet apology is about as predictable as Jim Carrey supporting the destruction of an unborn child! I would like internet to be more insulting! Everyone overreacts because their feelings got hurt. How predictable...
