First and foremost, I apologize to Ms. Wetback for the distasteful words that I chose to use. It was inappropriate, rude, and unnecessary.
Secondly, I'd like to apologize to Admin and the other moderators for disrespecting a member of your team.
Lastly, I'd like to make a point for all of the other members, especially the newer members or those that haven't been around the boards long enough to learn this lesson. The boards have a hierarchy which deserves notice. Mods are mods because they have put in the time and shown the knowledge necessary to not only give good advice, but also have the experience to know when to drop the hammer and regulate. Senior VIPs and VIPs are pretty much right there next to the mods in terms of deserving respect for pretty much the same reasons. Just because they aren't mods here doesn't mean that they couldn't be, here or somewhere else. Most veterans, myself not included, are vets because they have also been around the boards for long enough to have considerable knowledge and the judgement to not say stupid shit.
You don't have to like the fact that this respect is required in order to be on this board, but you do have to honor it. Just because they haven't earned that respect from you directly, doesn't mean they haven't earned it.
Again, I apologize for my comment yesterday, and I'd like to get back to being a contributing member.
