I told him I would like to rejoin, asked for his permission, told him what username and email I would use, apologized sincerely for everything that took place in the past, promised him nothing like it would ever happen again, and that I would post a public apology as well if that would aid a few select members in feeling any better. Considering this occurred 2 years ago you would think it would be old news, but apparently not.In the ensuing few years I've spent a considerable amount of time in the RPG and game community, in fact working with and alongside many of you. I was one of the lead auctioneers at Kublacon and Origins last year, and at Gencon I worked directly alongside Tim, Frank, Tom and all the other big names in sorting, checking, and auctioning some of the rarest of rare RPG items. Frank bestowed on me the great honor of auctioning the last rare RPG item in fact, an honor I won't soon forget. In addition I worked tirelessly during the charity auction in Gary's honor in which we raised over $17,000. I spent countless hours working at Gencon and sold numerous games to many of you on this forum. I will again be a head auctioneer at Kublacon and Origins in 2009 and will also be working alongside the same auction crew at Gencon. I can assure you there is no reason for concern, and as stated above I publicly apologize for what took place a few years ago. I freely admit that I let the situation get to me and it will never happen again.

In fact my apology is so sincere I will donate a rare RPG item, likely a mint copy of Upper Works, to be auctioned at Gencon this year and all proceeds will go directly to the Acaeum to help offset operating costs of the site.
