I was an asshole at BR. (and to some, I probably still am.) Not to the point where I would instigate, but I would not walk away, either. The toxic moderation of that forum turned me against them and I kinda took it out on a lot of people who didn't deserve it. After the forum became unruly, I felt there would be serious repercussions if the place wasn't cleaned up and brought back to a civilized state. We had people with 5, 6, 7, or more accounts and they would use those accounts to gang up on others. (remember when we first moved here) I was able to recognize many of the offenders so I offered to be an admin and start cleaning house. I was mostly ignored by the admin group and sometimes given suspensions. I finally just gave in and began to attack some of the folks I KNEW had multiple accounts and would piss them off to the point where I tried to get them banned. I alienated a lot of good people back then but I thought it would save the forum and all would be okay in time. I failed. Many of those still hold grudges or have me blocked.
