Dude. I've asked to be unmuted to apologize to you a couple times now through third parties. Still muted. What the what?

Don't like bugging you publicly, too much unnecessary drama, but can't PM you because I'm muted.

Would happily apologize for dickish behavior, but I can't without being unmuted. Pretty please? Cherry on top? Don't have to be all buddy buddy with you, but I do have to apologize regardless.

You:

1) Reached out to one other person

2) Were told by that one other person that you had been unmuted

3) Made no attempt or overture to reach out to me for a straight week

4) Were muted again upon revisiting the comments that got you muted in the first place.

You said you wanted to apologize. Then you didn't. That's the system at work right there.

Okay, yeah, one other person. But, and I don't like to admit to this level of obsession: I tried PM'ing a couple times a day after he interceded, and every time I got that "you can't PM somebody who has muted you" message, after which point I gave up because I assumed you just didn't want to deal with me. Seriously, the first interaction was a bad, bad thing, but the lack of interaction after that was a comedy of errors. Or just errors.

Part of fasting and not waking up till 3 or 4 PM is that I get to see wondrous posts like these after the fact. I remember distinctly my last comment to mreil, and it was something along the lines of "may your complaints about Hubski on Hubski be long and unfruitful." Looks like he took that to heart.

I don't see any point in engaging him any further, so...I dunno. But it's weird to me that he thinks the site is the reason Hubski is a bad place, when in reality it's just because he's an unpleasant person and no one likes interacting with people who are unpleasant.

Regardless, I'm just going to watch from afar and hope this works out in some way.
