This needed to be said.

@theWellRedMage Why anybody is digging up old bones over a book on 16-bit RPGs is beyond me. The smallest of minds at work. Besides, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: our past informs our present and future. If we’re living right, we’re becoming better people along the way.
@Memo_B_Random I'll take this to heart. Thank you.
@theWellRedMage Good on you for owning it. We’ve ALL said things we’re not proud of but for someone to pull up remarks from years ago as a gotcha just feels really petty when they obviously don’t represent you currently. We all grow and change and I think you’re a good dude for what it’s worth
@theNinja1985 Thank you for your generous words.
@theWellRedMage You don't need to apologize... People who dig these things up just to make trouble will never be satisfied. I will get your book and continue playing the classics. Work on the PS1 RPGs book next.
@muertorican Thank you for your support
@theWellRedMage No clue what you said and I don’t care honestly, unless it was funny. Your posts about JRPGs are pretty good and the book looks like it might make a good Christmas present. That being said you shouldn’t apologize to these people it will never be good enough.
@EulerTheGreat I appreciate that, thank you for the support
@theWellRedMage It's important to allow room for redemption IF the person has truly changed. You've been nothing but kind since I've known of you.
@Cpt_Eggbeard Thank you for saying so.
@theWellRedMage Don't apologize. He deserved it
@SendixBunny I can only take responsibility for my own actions, at the end of the day, and I'm happy to do so.
@theWellRedMage I have no idea what's going on but are we really still cancelling people for things said 5+ years ago?
@SweetestRads I'll take responsibility for past statements, nonetheless.
@theWellRedMage Nah, no need to apologize bud. As it stands, the track record of the people who dig up these things were never going to buy it in the first place. Anyone doing this doesn't know your character at all.
@theWellRedMage No idea what you said back then. But thanks for taking responsibility and committing to being better. We all make mistakes. What matters more is what we do after those mistakes. I continue to look forward to seeing your content moving forward.
@theWellRedMage everyone makes mistakes, and says stupid things, especially way in the past. Owning up to them is a sign of a true caring person. We learn and move on.
@theWellRedMage Well, I have no idea what's goin on, ya didn't hurt me at least, and it's big of ya to own up to whatever. Very little of those who are persecuting though if there are any. You would have had to have said somethin really bad, like worse than the f dash dash dash word.
@theWellRedMage How are we STILL doing this whole, “digging up dirt on people from forever ago because we don’t like their opinions,” shit… Don’t know what you said, nor do I care, I’ve enjoyed your content for years, and whoever went after you is trash. Keep your head up.
@theWellRedMage I don't care what you said back then (in fact, this is the first I'm ever hearin bout it!), because that was then, not NOW. You're not the same person as you were then, or even yesterday. Whatever it was is done and gone, and we should focus on the now. much love to you, man!
@theWellRedMage The book looks great and the resurgence of old comments specifically now is not a good look on them. You're a standup guy.
@theWellRedMage I don’t know what was said back then, but I know you’re a good person who is respectful and kind. Don’t know who bothers digging up the past, unless they are an archeologist. Know you are awesome friend
@theWellRedMage Bro, who cares? Is your book worth my money? That's all that matters. I am looking forward to getting it. Don't apologize to these people, nothing is ever good enough for them. If your book is good people will buy it regardless.
@theWellRedMage Umm what?
@theWellRedMage I am very confused. Hope everything works out okay for you, regardless.
@theWellRedMage I have no idea what statements were said/made but I found out your Portuguese.
@theWellRedMage I too am Portuguese on my mother's side.
@theWellRedMage You shouldn't ever apologize if you want to be taken seriously as a matter of fact on any subject. It's rule one of being an umpire. It's rule 1 of life. That's just the psychological reality. You can internally resolve to do better but never apologize.
@theWellRedMage What did you say?
