    Over the time you've been at PC you may have made mistakes and eventually regretted them. Was it your first infraction? Was it your thread locked when you joined? Was it that you didn't make the most of opportunities? Or maybe you don't have any regrets and have been really cautious from the moment you joined PC, which is... rare. (Oh and, yes you can regret certain things but it shouldn't change your overall opinion of PC etc, etc).

    As for me, there are many things, though I'm not quite sure. I know I've gotten over most things but I probably regret people not having known the better side of me in the first few years at PC.
     
    Top five things I regret in order from slightly tolerable to worst for maximum suspension:

    5. Getting into a fight with mewthree. That was just stupid on my part and resulted in a bias infraction.

    4. Mini-modding a couple of months after I joined and getting infracted for it. In a celebrations thread.

    3. Not getting into a stable group of friends and instead being a lone wolf of sorts on the forum.

    2. Over-hyping Vavavoom's disappearance and making a couple of threads in Pokemon General about it.

    1. Making this current alternate account and pretending I was a newbie despite the fact that my IP was visible and gave the game away.

    Yeah, I was a pretty stupid thirteen - fourteen year old.
     
    My one and only infraction. D:

    Klippy infracted me for my signature being out of the limits. I was a n00b and didn't know that 'sprites' are taken into consideration as well. Would've been awesome if Klippy had given a warning before an infraction. But past is past, and it's gone so yeah.

    That Klippy guy is a big fat meanie. He beats me and Larry with salami sticks. Like. No lie.

    Anyway, something I regret about PC is probably how I let it ruin a relationship a year or so ago. I should have been more careful and taken some time away from PC because of it, but I didn't. Oh well though. In a way, it worked out for the better.

    rather that as people are chosen for the staff on basis of, simply put, being good members, I can come to wonder if perhaps I am not a good member, and for how much time I've spent here it would be depressing to come to such a realisation only now.

    from what i've observed, it's more about who you know than who you are here. and i think you're much more qualified for a staff position than some people who've been chosen, but i'm not in charge so

    my regrets, none. i may have lost friends and made a few mistakes here and there, but i've come to realize a lot about people, and i know who my true friends are. so things are peachy
     
    I don't have too many regrets, mainly relating to non-activeness and whatnot. XD

    Though the thing I regret is why I joined this site. I originally did it to promote this fansite some friends and I were working on, posting links in my signature and whatnot. But that was years ago, and now I only come here because I like it here. :D
     
    inb4 I REGRET JOINING THIS STUPID FORUM

    I regret not caring about a lot of threads and / or people in here.
    Oh wait, I don't care :D

    Like.
     
    I got into a few kerfuffles with a few members on here over the years about the silliest things, albeit I've made up with pretty much everyone I can think of. Other than that, I have many generally n00bish posts from 2005-2007 I'd like to delete from memory.
     
    One of them was when Klippy warned me about a thread, where he thought I was stealing credit, when I actually did credit a person. So the warning was lifted. About two minutes later, I got an infraction for double posting by who else other then Klippy again. ;;


    At least I can laugh about it now. I've been clean for about a year and a half. =D
     
    I regret having lost my temper one too many times when I was younger and more immature. I felt so guilty that the first thing I did after making this account after my four-year disappearance was track down the two members I exploded at and apologized. One of then accepted my apology and then proceeded to get banned for something completely unrelated and the other hasn't replied due to not having been on PC since 2007. >_>

    HILARIOUS.

    The only thing I regret is becoming involved with a certain group that used to go here. lol
     
    Posting a n00bish/unhelpful rating in the S&M section.. I thought D_A was gonna rip my head off...

    I was such a noob -_-... oh wait, i still am Dx

    Oh, and when I got infracted on my old account for spamming the Welcome Threads :D! Luckily it expired a while ago... lol.

    I was saddened when Ced(Vavavoom) disappeared from the forum actually.

    Anyway, I have been a good boy ever since my arrival. I have no infractions so I can say I regret anything there. I guess I regret not being active enough -stares at post count-
     
    1. Retiring from tournaments because of my school exams (I had to study).
    2. Being childish and extremely competitive.
    3. Getting two warnings for using filler (I didn't know about the filler dangers).

    Post count over 1500 look at mine!:)

    My regrets are:
    1) Making this Username ;-;
    2) Not posting enough(Im afraid if I post something wrong everyone attacks)
    3) Meeting someone on hear if they read this they know...
     
    I regret not becoming active sooner.

    I regret using a themed username instead of one representing me as a person.

    I regret meeting certain people that have done nothing but abuse my kindness.

    Of course, none of the above actually bothers me. I only regret it.
