| Turns Out I Missed My NS Birthday.... |
|
Well turns out September 6th is my NS birthday but I was doing band (yay band!) so here's the mandatory post about everything NS has meant to me etc.
First and foremost this last year has been... one to remember, from my 'debut' in GP to resigning from CoA there are so many things I could mention that would make it seem like I am active in this community or that I am important. But I don't want to do that. I'm going to talk about what NS taught me over the last few years 1. When you mess up, and you're called out for it, don't fight it, accept it and try to fix it. Man is this a big one. I mean the CoA stuff is what taught me this and looking back, despite how much I messed up, the proudest moment of that whole term was when I resigned. Here's why, trying to fight a recall would have only led to a battle that would have served to divide people when those who were looking for a recall were right, I had messed up big time. And when you can accept criticism and seek to do what is best for those around you as opposed to yourself that is, in my opinion, part of what has helped me be successful here and in RL. 2. Stand for your values As some of you know, I am a Judge in the CU Lazarus region. and this year has tested my values on that court. I was faced with a case that would have, had I ruled with the majority LWU justices, made our elections all legal when they definitely weren't. So I slept on the issue and knew what I had to do. I recused myself (becue that would force the courts to stall) in a move that has been called cowardly and that I was simply a puppet. And I wasn't called these things by people who I didn't know, it was by people I trusted and who had helped me to get to where I was. But the thing that kept me strong was that I did the right thing in my mind and I have no regrets about what I did because it was the right thing to do. And doing the right thing has kept me from regretting much in this game. 3. Be nice People like to get power. People in this game like to get power through whatever means possible. People will put you in power if you are nice to them. Goes for RL too. Okay, in all honesty, thank you to everyone who has advised me, supported me and helped to give me hope that I have a future in this game. I thank you all for the work you put into TSP and NS as a whole and if you are new here I have one thing to tell you: don't be afraid to reach out. Many older players love to help the new players avoid the mistakes they made and I know I would be happy to help (if I'm an older player yet). Thanks for reading this guys and I'll be back to normal activity on November 11th. Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.
