Hey. You don't have to read this whole thing if you don't want to. I just thought that I would let out some steam. If you want to get straight to the question, just skip to the third paragraph, stop reading at the end of said paragraph, and have a nice day. Everyone else, be prepared, 'cause I've toughened up since the last time you've heard of me.
You might remember me as the person that everyone picked on. That everyone called Rodney (Geez, one thing I never understood was why someone didn't check and compare Rodney and my computer's IEP addresses. I garuntee you 100% that there is no match whatsoever, that I am just what I claim to be: a seventeen year old who has an interest in Broadway just like the rest of you.) . That, according to one who calls herself "colleen_lee" (and this is the part that, truth be told, actually stung me the most), no one will take seriously anymore, no matter how many times I attempt to turn over a new leaf, because, accordin' to her, "the damage I delt has already been done". I'm not trying to be evil. I have considered all that you taught me and I have learned from my mistakes thanks to you all. You saved me from going down the wrong path. As for our president? While I still support him, I do wish that he would change his stance on a number of things, including gay marriage. I still don't understand why people here insisted that I was nothing but a big joke, that just because my opinions are different from yours, they are insignifigant. It's immature, if you ask me, and I'm only seventeen for Pete's sake!
But whatever. I'm sure that none of you are interested in any of my moaning. On my last post, I promised that I would leave if everyone wanted me to. And since for some odd reason, people find me to be so darn offensive, I'll do just that. But first, I have one more question for y'all that is free from self pity and free from attention seeking: Where can I find another Broadway forum that is just as good as this one? I've searched and I've searched, but I couldn't find anything. The time that I have spent here has been so precious, and I have learned so much that I have never known before. Before this whole fiasco (which I'm pretty sure y'all have forgotton about until I started this topic), I used to love it here. That's why I want to find another quality forum for me to hang out on. So if you have any ideas as to where there is another Broadway forum that is just as good as this, please tell me in this post or via PM. Thank you.
Now, I know what y'all are thinkin'. "Why is she bringin' this up again after we have long forgotton about it?" Believe it or not, this event remains close to my heart, and when I think about all of the people I might have potentially offended, it traumatizes me to this day. That is why in my last post, I wanted to turn over a new leaf, to be forgiven. And I know what else you're thinkin', too: "Geez, Rodney (since I'm sure people out there are still gonna call me Rondey) said that this post isn't self pitying or attention seeking, but it really is." And looking back at my post, I understand how you may feel that way, because it *does* read like a self pitying or attention seeking post. But there is one big difference: I don't pity myself. In fact, half of me feels guilty for offending seemingly everyone on the entire friggen board, while the other half thinks that you all are not only immature, but a bunch of hypocrites that preach freedom of opinion but then turn around and ridicules anyone who thinks differently than you. Reminds me of somethin' from Farenheit 491 and 1984, if ya ask me.
Well, that's all I have to say for myself. Remember that I didn't force ya to read my ranting and offered that you could just skip to the question. Nevertheless, I know I'm gonna get flamed heavily anyways, so what difference does words make?

That's my story, 'n I'm stickin' to it!

You insult me, I ignore you. That's how the system works around here.
