Wiki, I don't see where you apologized in any of this. The closest I got was you making something that sounded like an apology, then immediately taking back saying that as long as some people here are still assholes to you, you're not sorry.

I don't particularily think anybody here cares one way or the other if you've met Monty Oum, so long as you don't use it as a reason for your actions or decisions, then it's likely to get on someones nerves. Not saying you *have* just saying if you do.

I've been sitting as a neutral bystandard for a while, simply watching and witnessing the shitstorm between you and Flora and the 101 ways you think we're wrong and you're right, and simply put; I don't care. I met Johnny Yong Bosch and David Vincent at a convention too. As did hundreds of other people. It doesn't make me special, it just means I touched a Power Ranger and gave Hakumen a Hug-umen. Believe it or don't I don't care.

If you want to apologize, apologize. But there's a right way and a wrong way to go about doing it. This, for reasons stated in my first paragraph, is one of the wrong ways to do it, and will only result in pissing off the people you're attempting to make amends with.

Also, as it needs to be pointed out. OCs such as Garret Strider, and the plethora of characters whos art is simply traced or of poor quality, *AND* whos backstory and history consists of self-inserted, Mary-Sue, canon breaking, shitposting garbage are flat out of an inferior quality. They're parasites on the universe they're derived from, choosing to suck from what already exists instead of forging their own mark, and quite frankly they're not even enjoyable to RP with with my own characters.

Do I claim my only OC herself is better than any other? Never. No point in stating something as subjective as that. But I'm proud of the design and I can truthfully state that I put in real effort making something truly unique instead of hashing out a story that makes her the greatest and every boy in canon likes her and so on and so forth. (Also, decidedly not a Bayonetta trace, since we all know she's just Female Dante.)

But back to the main matter at hand. If you want to apologize, whatever. But don't go saying "Oh I WOULD apologize, but I'm not because you all don't believe me." It's petty, childish, and comes off as more of a demand or a threat.

The core problem with that is, quite frankly; the majority of us don't care if you apologize or not. If you do, sure. Super. Thanks. Some of us acted like asses too (Flora). But there's literally absolutely no problem if you never apologized to any of us. Big deal, you were a giant asshole anyways. To only continue to do so is to simply be in the status quo you established for yourself with your behavior.

Now, in closing, if you're really, actually, truly, sorry. One thing to keep in mind is that apologies are not a mutual exchange inately. They are not a commodity you trade in equal measures, even if both sides have their faults. When you apologize, you're admitting your mistake. You're admitting that you fucked up. And you're, most importantly, admitting and taking the first step in changing it for the positive.

When you apologize while simultaniously demanding the same from others, you're throwing the entire meaning of an apology out of the window, and you're not making a move towards a positive change or a positive conclusion. You're simply trying to get a one up over somebody else. And that's not only rude, but the complete opposite of the humility required to apologize.

Wether you read this or not, I don't care.

Wether you reply to this or not, I don't care.

But for the love of fucking god I am tired of seeing this spat. It's been going on for the better part of a year now. Both you, and Flora. Either finally fucking ignore each other and go to your own separate corners of the internet, or kiss, make up, and give the shippers something to write about instead of this passive aggressive (mostly aggressive) tete a tete.
