most embarrassing thing you did on this forum

I think I regret ending every message of mine with "XD"

although honestly I still use xD on occasion because it is the superior emote
 
Nothing yet! I mean, my existence itself is embarrassing but I've gotten used to that. (im joking btw lmao)
I mean.. I guess..er.. hm.. I got nothing ;-;

I'M LAUGHING jsda shawn, we love u and your posts where you talk to fictional characters.


The more I think about this topic, the more I remember that I also said some silly things when I would give people infractions.
Like, I would be too wordy, and realized later that a one or two sentence warning was good enough. I'm dying thinking about it still.

when I first got modded in 2007 I used to be super strict and mean and like the most embarrassing thing I did was tell people off and threaten to infract people in sections that weren't my own and ughhhhhh that was such a hot mess

let's just say I was a super mean mod back in the day lmao
 
Early on I mistook a mod's gender. Granted it hadn't been obvious, but still, my bad there.
 
oh god bobandbill, you just reminded me of that time i PMd the mod Chibi-chan asking if she was really 7 years old as her profile stated. she wasn't.

Oh let's see

1. Getting pranked hard on April Fools 2012, def was embarrassing once that was done
2. Me leaving staff because of the "drama" that happened, in hindsight, that was really stupid of me to leave because of that.
3. Me being 100% obsessed with the forums I so desperately wanted to mod but staff didn't give me them (real yikes right there)
4. A lot, and I mean a lot of my blog entries. Would delete them, but I like to keep the cringe tbh. It's history.
5. Most of my old CSS and humor. I'm just ashamed at this point smh
 
three words: just a brother

only the elite will remember
 
Definitely take this forum more seriously than just a Pokemon website sometimes. Haha. Not really most embarrassing since that's an on going thing but it's true lol.
 
Not too much since I joined this website at 17, so the most embarrassing things already occurred elsewhere. However I guess trying to join a discussion and being overlooked/ignored is a bit embarrassing. Quite funny because I sometimes have the same fear in real life.
 
Probably asked (successfully) to rejoin staff, only to go ghost. It wasn't my intent to ghost, I just severely underestimated how busy I'd be. The embarrassing/shitty part is I didn't bother to speak up and resign or anything, I just let myself get fired a few months later. I know several people went up to bat for me, too, as me joining wasn't a unanimous decision, and I really let them down.

I think I've already said it before, but I'll say it again; if you're one of those people who went to bat for me, thank you for your trust and I'm sorry I let you guys down.
 
Honest's post makes me think, and honestly most of the time I was on staff was a little embarrassing in hindsight. Just because I'm so different now.

I MEAN, I wouldn't let that bother you. You tried! I'm sure you didn't let anyone down.

but isn't that basically the entire PC experience???
 
Don't feel like going into specifics but anyone on staff at the time would know that I had a period of trolling and histrionic behavior. It's been a while and I've apologised, changed and been welcomed back since then so I don't beat myself up about it anymore but I do appreciate the second chance. I've embarrassed myself far more "irl" in ways that were a lot harder to live down lol.
