An email from La Magra

The recently departed La Magra asked the Council to post this email from him, so here it is:

"hey, I don't know where to start but as some of you might know allready I've recently been banned from the JA. I am taking full responsibility for the ban, because I believe that the council took the right decision. I'd like to apologize to the ppl I've hurt with my actions. I'd never ment to hurt any of you. But the truth is that I did hurt some of you and I deserve to be punished so I am accepting this ban without further fight. I'd also like to say, alltho it is unlikely, but if the council should decide to lift my ban, I'll probably never return to the JA. The JA has been a part of my life for more than a year and a half and I loved every moment here. But I won't return for one reason. Missing the JA is a constant reminder of what I've done wrong, it will remind me of whats wrong with my personality and for those that I've and other, I promise that I'll never let it get this far ever again. I don't blame anyone for looking at me differently or being disgusted with me cause quite frankly I am disgusted with myself at the moment. I've hurt some ppl that I care very much about and thats absolutly untolarable. I also like to mention that from this moment I won't message any JA member ever again, unless they make it clear to me that they still want to keep in contact with me (which I am hoping that few of the good friends I made here will do, and that they will forgive me for what I've done). Thats all I wanted to say.

For whats its worth, I truly am sorry about my actions.
LaMagra"

If fyou want to say your goodbyes to Magra here, then do so.
But do not start attacking eachother over this matter.

If you want to state an opinion, you may do so, but please be sure that it is not offensive to anyone who may read it afterwards.

Exactly what I meant Fizz. You cant go around telling people their opinion is wrong, becasue there hardly ever is a right or or wrong in an opinion.

Stating your opinion without knowing or accepting the facts is a waste of breath.

Think before you post.

Rogue: you need to think of those who he hurt. It's not just about Maggy, it's also about those who he harassed.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD LEARN THE DEFINITION OF THE WORD OPINION. Everyone is entitled to their own, it is their God given right. I dont know anything about this. I just want to remind you that alot of people wouldnt be who they are today without Magra.

IN MY OPINION I think banning him was the wrong thing to do. If it was a case such as Doobster says then I think the correct course of action is offering help to him, not throwing a dedicated teacher out on his ass.

LaMagra, you will always be apart of my life and I will never, ever, forget you. If you can read this, e-mail me sometime. Maybe I can give you another guitar lesson. :)

Good luck,

Well...

I just want to say I really liked mr Maggi:P To me he always was most kind and he learned me loads of stuff...

I don't know what he's done, nor why. But if I judge on what I have seen of him it is a big loss to the Jedi Academy.

I also find it rather strange that I'm seeing this in the Jedi Academy forum instead on the news posts, but I'll ques there'll be a reason for it...

I just want to say I really liked you as a person mr LaMagra and I think it's a shame you're gone...

I apologize for flaming like that
You did nothing to deserve that, I just had one of my serious moments there, and well, you struck a nerve.

But I'm okay now, and you have no reason for apologizing.
It is I who should have been more careful, not you.

My sincerest apologies

Bail, my post was not in response to you; it was to Cuzza.

Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

I think more likly it is beacuse, as you so elegantly put it,

Quote:
Infact...none of you know sh*t...


so people posting messages such as good luck magra etc.

Are basing them on what they thought of him not knowing about ... whatever it is that "none of us" know.

I think that in my brother Bails post when he said

Quote:
and sure if the JACs were to ask my opinion I would bring him back in


He means that due to the fact he has only seen the good side of magra he would not be able to say la magra should be banned.


also the

Quote:
sorry to see u go' messages


I completly agree with. Even if I did know what it is la magra has done and could base my opinion on that.

It is shame that one of our members has to go who has been with us for such a long time (well before my time at least),

I know he did things that were wrong and that he was forced to go, but that makes it even MORE of a shame to see him go.

Edit:

Btw, I do not mean to specificaly target you with my points Helen,
I did miss your appology for going over the top message
Sorry Darth maul you are quite right i missed your post also,
I really should finishing reading the thread before starting my reply... Sorry everyone

That's why I said this post should die, seeing as it isn't helping people to forget what has happened.

Just leave it.

Like I pointed out to Helen on IRC, it isn't easy for people who don't know what's going on to judge this situation. They're confused and sad, so it's not proper to hold that against them, and she agreed with that. She's tired with this whole situation, which I understand. :)

I know full well what went on Helen. He apologised. Do you expect him to shit you Tiffany Cufflinks to compensate you? I doubt it. You can't ask for much more than an apology. Don't take it out on everyone because we don't hold a grudge.

This place makes me sick, this whole thread makes my stomach turn, I don't know what's more nauseating...the 'hey good luck magra' or the mere thought of 'bring him back'. Did anyone actually consider the feelings of the person/s directly affected by this? no...why? cause hey! he's a good guy!...sad to see u go!..yea right!...you tell that to the person/s on the receiving end of his 'goodguy' personality..Infact...none of you know sh*t...Sometimes I hear of people being banned for things that well lets just say..are well 'not so serious' but hey wtf do I know eh..I don't even play the game! and sometimes I actually question those who have authority to do so..this time I have nothing but utter respect for those council members that took this decision. Rule breaking is completely unnacceptable and in this case...when something so serious affects RL it is completely intollerable...so to all the opinionated people who've stated their goodwills and 'sorry to see u go' messages I think it's best you stfu unless you know the full extent and the seriousness of this ban...cause believe me..if only you knew.
