greetings epicmafia community,
as you know, I am now an ex-mod
this thread will not be about trying to win back the modship
my good ole pal sank says this about me:
hey everyone. while we are generally committed to allowing a diverse range of opinions on the “mod team,” we have agreed that MeetTerry has crossed a line that consequently endangers the well-being of users and goes as far as to discredit very real and sensitive issues of mental health. this is an unconscionable, callous act and goes against everything we look for in promoting users to a position where they can help the community. for that reason, we are removing him from the mod team. we would like to thank him for what he has done in his tenure and hope that he has learned something from his experience.
No where in any of my past posts makes any reference to mental health.

There are people on this site who treat life lightly, as if it's a piece of paper that one can throw out if a mistake is made on it. Posts were made essentially excusing and allowing suicide as a viable solution to a troubled person.
These posts were nonsense.
Now while I admit that I was being harsh by dismissing feelings of other people, I immediately posted explaining and clarifying the initial post. The first post had a clear frustrated and angry tone to it as reading the pro-suicide comments were infuriating.
Nevermind the fact that the thread was in General Discussion forums and nobody bothered to try and say why I'm wrong. Rather, "MeetTerry wow! what a cruel and evil guy! Demod him!"
And I still stand by my beliefs like this. This is what I have been trying to say:
There are people in this world trying to survive and improve their lives despite how stacked it was against them. If you can consider and accept that these people exist, then perhaps you should as well.
The thread is now just a circlejerk of "yes yes suicide is OK and 100% acceptable for troubled people".
anyways, AMA, the ex-mod cuck.
