fable can't claim that that post was personal and addressed to him. It was addressed to this forum as a whole. It is important and totally not against the rules for me to publically apologize to fable for my overreacting. By overreacting, I made some people, besides fable, mad at me. Those people need to see that I have apologized to fable.

I've seen it. At least I know you apologized.

@SS, may I point out that you began your deleted post with the following exact quote...?
"I honestly don't care if this topic gets deleted, I just felt it would be good if I posted this. Anyway, the reason I'm posting this topic."
If you didn't care about its getting deleted, then I figured a post which apologized only to me was personal, and surely not intended to be a public gesture. That's why I deleted it, and that's why I emailed you a reply.
So it was deleted because you said you didn't care about its deletion. Now, you seem to have changed your mind.

I guess I shoulda been a little more specific...though I didn't care if it got deleted, I thought you would reply to it and let it stay, even if closed, at least long enough for people to see that I had apologized. The second post, however, was not directed at you, it was directed at SYM. Thus the title of it was "@SYM." It was rather simple logic...or so I thought... *sigh*

Seems like misunderstanding, here.
Anyway, @SS I was happy to see you post where you apologized to Fable, since I think you did him wrong, and it's good you realised this

Okay. Look: obviously, this was a matter of a misstatement. You intended an apology, and you wanted others to see it. I still prefer that any other dialog between us on moderator-related matters be kept to PM, so if you wish to continue our discussion privately, per my last email, that's fine.

But I'll be glad to repost your initial remarks. I'll close the subject, though, since I don't want to see any acrimonious debate erupt concerning the sincerity of your concern, or anybody else's judgment of it.
I honestly don't care if this topic gets deleted, I just felt it would be good if I posted this.
Anyway, the reason I'm posting this topic.
This topic is a formal apology to fable. Though I still maintain that my post shouldn't have been edited, I apologize for overreacting. You do not have to accept this apology, but it is a sincere apology.
A few things I'd like to ask.
When did fable get made a mod in this forum?
Why was fable made a mod in this forum?
Another question, directed directly to fable(go ahead and edit this question out of the topic if you think it shouldn't be asked in a public post): Do you really think you are able to be both a debator and a moderator? I've never seen anyone who could be as involved in debates as you are and be a moderator. If you can manage it, I'll be very impressed; not just because of you doing it, just because it will have been done.
Anyway, that's all I wanted to say/ask. I honestly hope that you are not offended by any of my questions, fable. They are not meant to be offensive.
