Potato you become rather unpleasant when drunk, don't listen to others when they say shit like "we like drunk staff" it's just people who want others to have self destructive behaviour so they can feel better for themselves. If you do come back it should be on the condition that Don’t drink yourself into the ground again, even if you don't happen to do anything wrong when drunk even just the once or you go back into the time out corner. It's a problem my guy, it's time to give that shit up.

The tough love afforded to someone in a fucking garry's mod server forum to help them get better after repeated bad behavior and a number of apology posts that, frankly, reek of them not feeling that sorry about it, was far more work than what it was worth to type out for someone I hardly interacted with. Still, when people take the time to carefully craft the words to breach the ego-membrane ("I'm not actually a bad guy,") you wrap yourself in and help even when you've hurt them, listen. Look at how you've been approached, even when it's them you singled out and harassed. It's a kindness even when it doesn't read like one, and for someone with military experience, I can imagine you've received something like that in the past.

By all means, sandpaper the edges of what you need to hear until it's a goddamn salute. Invite him back in and craft a community that doesn't care what you've said or done or how it hurts anyone else in that community until you're all alone again. All you're doing is robbing yourself of an opportunity to grow. If I were in your position, and I have been, I'd take it.

I do hope you find help even if this isn't something you listen to.

Nice bridge building. What he did really is not that big of a deal when compared how people have been treating the situation. The situation dose not need to be carefully handled because it's not a complicated issue, it is a rather straightforward one, he said dumb things and picked some bad choice of words when explaining things. The problems roots are quite clear, no need to over complicated everything, it's dehumanizing. This reminds me of to many idiots who treat every little problem way too harshly, but then can't seem to handle rathe simple and obvious problems in their own life simply because they never learned to relax after discipline.

I don't think asking for someone to reflect on themselved and learn to be less unpleasant is disrespectful. Just because he was a service member doesnt mean people just have to accept bad behavior. Plenty of people in the community are also service members or know service members who don't act like that. People are upset and letting out their frustration at the fact that potatos post does not come across very genuine and it has high potential to get accepted because if you include "sorry" on the forums it works.

You simply did not pay any attention at all.
