Justin, the fact that you host Oddworld Forums on your server was never overlooked. I never knew that when accepting your offer, you would suddenly be given the right to throw me around as you see fit. If anyone is abusing their power here, it's you.
People aren't "flocking blindly" to me. They are finally seeing the extreme, absurd lengths you will go to in an effort to protect your obsession: Oddworld. Regardless of what your motives are here, it's clear that the overwhelming majority see this situation for what it is. You even admitted yourself that you were wrong, but try to justify it with long-winded, ambiguous responses that serve little purpose other than to self-glorify.
Don't try to tell people you have nothing but respect for me. That's a joke. If you had an ounce of respect for me you never would have attempted to embarress me in the way you did. You act as though you are an all-knowing, mysterious being watching over the forums, whose purpose is to point out the flaws in others while denying he has any of his own. The fact is that you do make mistakes, and do all you can to cover them up: Those who don't know, I had responded to Surfacing's post in the Odd Tour topic which asked me if I had the chance of meeting Justin and Kristen. I had explained that I was unable to meet them. Kristen and Justin had said they respected my decision. That didn't stop them from abusing the information they had found on the internet. They traced the whereabouts of my residency and their car slowly gurgled through my neighbourhood. They invaded my privacy and disrespected the decisions I'd made. The next day, my message had been deleted and they made me out to be the villain, as always, when they were obviously in the wrong.

Jacob, I'd like to say that you are one I agree with here. It is very true that I have misjudged you in the past. Kristen and I were even discussing before this mess how you had strightened up. Anyway, you are right.

What a measely attempt at manipulation.

Sydney, would you like to tell these people about some of the stuff you've done; I mostly speak of the stuff you have done to us? after all of this, you feared that the forums had forgotten about you; that you were old news. I've proved you wrong, haven't I? You're the man in charge. Handle your responsibility carefully, though. You're in an incredible place of power and you cannot squander that! There are people here who look up to you my friend. You cannot betray that.

Tell them what I've done? Alright. I founded these forums years ago with wonderful visions for the future. I made inexcusable misjudgements of character, and now I'm paying the price of trusting a group of decrepit schemers. Over the past few months it had become increasingly clear to me that I have been wanted less and less by other members of Administration since my interest in Oddworld has wavered. You've proven to me that you have no respect for my position, nor for the hard work I've put into these forums over the years.
