Who's on your ignore list?

Unfortunately, there's a number of posters here who haven't wavered from their dislike of me, dating back to the "dark times" before I took my hiatus.

That's dumb. If anything, your history as a poster demonstrates redemption is almost always possible.

I wasn’t on Atlas at the time, but what happened with Calthrina in the past?

I was very emotionally volatile, to put it mildly, and used to engage in what we could call "both sidesism", attacking Democrats for their perceived faults, in a way that came across as hypocritical, and as ignoring those of Republicans. I'm not even sure that's an accurate summary of what I did. But the overriding problem was that I reacted to every insult, every slight, and took things overboard. I had (and still do have in many circumstances) a thin skin, and thus got myself into needless arguments without accomplishing much of anything.

Oh, I can see why people may have not liked you back then. Very few people take too kindly to over the top “both sidesisim” especially given the political climate of today. I’m sure you had good intentions, but I’m glad to see that you’ve clearly grown as a person since then. You shouldn’t let what you see online get to you too much.

It's a problem I struggle with in real life as well, and have ever since I was small. I translated many of my real-world struggles to here. As I've openly stated a number of times, I have Asperger's syndrome, and that certainly affects how I perceive things, and how I interact with people. For example, I talk to myself frequently, and have been doing so for as long as I can remember. That is in spite of the ongoing efforts by my parents to suppress it.

I’m sorry, that must be tough to go through. I hope you’re able to sort all this out.
