I stand here
From: quickvarmg@aol.com (QuickVarMG)
Date: 10 Jun 1998 20:42:41 EDT
::Writes a few words simply::
Many don't seem to like my wordings in the message boards now. I used to think that my comments were welcome here, but even now with a simple challenge, I have accusations thrown at me, and some can be believed justifiably, with my past actions.
So, I stand here, apologizing to the silent readers for ruining the boards for them. I may have apologized again and again, and many may be tired of me apologizing, just thinking the best way to end this is for me to shut up.
However, the overlord, the commoners, and those ranks in between don't deserve to read the trash I throw out at Adonai or anyone else. Because of this, I apologize for ruining the boards of DoS.
If anyone else has a problem they want to discuss with me, feel free to. I'm not having much fun in the arena, anymore, because of the disagreements I have gotten myself into. I want to be back in the quiet lifestyle of the arena, if that's possible again.
So I stand here, saying I'm sorry, and I stand here, welcoming criticism.
Respectfully,
Var Medici-Giovanni

Take heart in knowing that those that have condemned you are a select few in the DoS. Truly you have a great wish to stand by your convictions, or you wouldn't have let it go on this long, and I commend you for it.
Yes, there were things you could have done better...ways you could have better handled the situations, but you know what? We all make mistakes and not you nor I nor Adonai nor Baph nor Dal...nobody is without fault. We're all fallable, my friend. Mayhap we would all do well to admit it more often than we do. ::chuckles softly::

Var,
To say apology accepted would indicate that I take this far too lightly, and as most of your opinions have been directly antipolar to mine that would be a very flippant move on my part.
But I will say I do understand, and that mayhaps this out of many things might have finally brought to light for you that while what you do is right, and I do not say it isn't. That all in all, it may not be right for me or for someone else. This, to me of course is where wisdom and tolerance starts.
I myself am not a perfect practioner of those two skills, and I do not expect anyone is or ever will be, it is good to know that you at least realize that even though you believe it to be just and honorable it does not mean the same for the rest of us.
I once posted that I wished us all to be friends and respect each other for at least our gods given talents, but that alas, may never happen with the diversity of people in this realm, and, on a whole....thats not really a bad thing all in all. Strife can be, and has been always, the spice of this realm. And aye, blood enemies can be borne of it, but oh well, I am not sure often which is worse, the weeks when nothing is happening and
there is nothing to do but duel and have a drink, or the weeks when I am embroiled in a deathmatch of words and duels of hatred. Personally, both are good to me, it merely depends on my mood at the given moment.
So....as I have before, I apologize a bit for my harshness and my passion, but know they only stem from the same thing your firey faith does, unwavering belief that what you do is right.
I am,
~Adonai Uziel
~DragonLord of RhyDin
~Renegade Baron of the Seventh

Just don't misunderstand me... I will, of course, excercise my right to state my beliefs, and to stand by them, which remain constant.
I want to restate, though, that the reason I am apologizing to the readers is because I don't think they deserve to read bickering or consistent differing of opinions of individuals who stand firm in their beliefs. Just a summary of my initial post.
Respectfully,

Gentles and others of the Duels.
May the sun never rise on the day that anyone from commoner to Overlord feels prevented from openly stating a position or opinion upon this ancient cork board, may they be the well reasoned or those rabid vituperations.
For those who peruse this ancient board it is insight, if carefully perused and considered, and above all it is the life's blood of the body politic which is ever the dance both within and without the rings.
PS: Al and Hubie earn their keep by wagering on the next embroilment. Who would be so heartless as to force the serving kids to make do with the pittance Thaddeus pays, not to mention the kick backs demanding by Edmond.
Jona,
Common as they come.

Warlord Var,
If you couldn't even stand by your convictions or principals, though I may not agree with them, I would consider you even less then a man and a dueler of these rings.
Honor to thyself, Respect to others,
