let me just think for a second because i did this once.
This is another kid, who wants to not get flamed and just wants to have people be nice to him.
Don't be stuffting on him because he makes a "im sorry" topic or "im sorry for my reputation" topic or etc, he just wants to be respected here as much as everyone else does.
He is a new person here, give him a chance.
OP, don't feel bad about your reputation, its fine.
Take this from a guy who is probably one of the most hated users on this forum to date.
