Good evening. I am CPL-B.Miller[75thR], some of you may know me as I frequent your server rather often. I am a member of the 75th Ranger Regiment, a military realism unit, as well as a fellow Christian. I thoroughly enjoy being on your server and talking to your members, who are friendly, fun, and skilled.
However, what I came here to do was to apologize. I could find no other forum for this, seeing as I was not banned.
Let me explain. I was playing on your server earlier this evening. there were a few others on, and we were all having fun. Truth -=of God=- was playing, and was seriously destroying the opposition. I made the comment,
"Wow, Truth-=Of God=- fights like a [euphemism removed] demon. O.o"
A mere joke on my part. However, two minutes later, I am kicked from the server and banned for 15 minutes for use of the 'F' word and associated euphemisms.
Here I would like to apologize for my actions. What I did was not an attempt to bypass censors or fool admins into thinking I wasn't cussing. I am well-known within my regiment as CPL 'Virgin' Miller, or CPL 'Straight Arrow' Miller, because I am one of two people in my regiment who NEVER swears. I was attempting to give stronger feeling to the sentence when I used a word that was not really a word, much like you might here someone say '[euphemism removed]', or, 'Oh [euphemism removed]'. I did not, however, take into account that such an action could be mis-interpreted as offensive, and I failed to take your view of things into account. I apologize for this miscommunication. What I did, I did only in an attempt to make other people laugh, by contrasting that an -=Of God=- member would 'fight like a demon'. It was badly mis-interpreted and I apologize. Rest assured, it will not happen again in the future. I hope that you can forgive me and not look harshly on me. You are all very pleasant people, and I would not want ill relations between us. Again, I am sorry. Thank you for taking the time to read and respond to this post. Good night, and God bless.
