Blog:An apology for any perceived rudeness I may have displayed and explanations for any acts that have confused anyone

Recently, Masson Thief brought up an objection I have insulted users and that it was confusing as to why I resisted having my blog post content censored by another admin for foul language (the one addressed to those on Wikia still giving any Wikia Staff grief).

I am writing this to explain myself, take responsibility for anything I may be guilty of, and to clarify matters.

As to the blog censorship and why I vetoed it, Rule 6 of the guidelines state:

"Never swear on pages unless it is used in a quote or is basically important. Swearing in the comments is fine as long as it isn't used to offend others."

Note the bolded section. I was speaking in an official capacity in that post, I did not want my intentions misinterpreted by anyone now or in the future, hence why I resisted any edits of my words. For more informal posts where I'm not speaking from a position of authority, that's fine, but official posts (perhaps I should add a disclaimer saying so), I cite the exception noted in Rule 6 of the guidelines.

As to any perceived rudeness on my part, none has been deliberately intended, and to my knowledge I have not been rude to any specific party. I may have been overly harsh with my pronouncement to have anyone still getting mad at Wikia Staff over recent events to please cease and desist, but I merely wanted to emphasize it would be very foolish to make mad people who can globally block you from their service and they still won't give you what you want afterwards. I also informed Wikia Staff I had written that post, which I wrote in the hopes they would not be so harsh to anyone still upset since I made it clear they were not appreciating it, and I was hoping anyone still angry at them would read what I wrote and reconsider.

Any attempts to offend anyone were not intended.

On that subject, I tend to be blunt when it comes to obeying rules, as I believe stern lessons make harsh reminders one won't soon forget. I apologize if this style of leadership comes off as abrasive, and I will try to moderate my tone in the future.

In conclusion, if I have committed any other offense, please let me know in the comments, and I will take responsibility and apologize to whomever I must.
