if it were on me, I'd actually unban you. This text actually seemed honest to me. And to all those ppl who say yeah he's an asshole he'll cheat again once he buys a new copy... Everyone makes mistakes. This is a huge one, though. But still you can learn from that. I had similar things happening in rl. I did miss some school lessons on purpose, starting out with half a day before holidays, then soon going over into always skipping last 2 lessons a day. I knew it was wrong all the time. But I continued, it just felt good, for that moment, though always when i thought about it, i was in fear of the consequences. (not only probable punishments, also me not knowing what i have to know for class tests). I've always waited for the day when finally a teacher told me I had to stop it, being the signal I needed to stop, as I always wanted to, but the short-time advantages of it always were stronger. That day came. And from that day on I didn't miss anymore lessons. (ok, it's been 2 months or so since then, but I don't feel like doing it anymore). And from all I read here, that guy did go through kind of the same process, just in another environment, and not with a friendly advice, but with a permban. and btw, for those who dont believe him, I've also started playing video games with 3 years. (am 15 now).
