Thought help: Below Par - Help.com

Below Par

I can’t believe that through my own fault I got my help.com account deleted on this my second day. I had posted a few questions which were answered by some very helpful members and I felt I had established a connection with a few members even if only my second day on the site. I even answered a few questions and really was getting into my stride when up popped a verification of my date of birth when I tried to access a particular question I thought I might be interested in trying to answer. So I put in the month and date but click to soon on the submit button and so missed putting my birth year, so it registered me as being born this year 2011 and the rest is history(my account was deleted quick sharpish)

I’m hoping the support team can reinstate my postings, but for now I have had to re-register.

So to all those whose commented on my new posts earlier I humbly apologise and feel free to rate my stupidity from 1-10 (1 = ‘Really Stupid’ and 10 = ‘Not stupid - Just a little unlucky’)

I don’t know if I’ve commented on any of your posts, but let me just say this: a simple mistake is not stupid, but humiliating yourself because of a simple mistake is. seriously, do you have any idea how many people on this site have completely screwed-up lives, and you’re looking for pity because you make one little mistake? stop denigrating yourself and laugh it off.

I don’t wish to cause offence by this posting, as I am new to the site I had read a lot of the postings and totally understand the severity of some of them, I have also seen some very light hearted postings which made me smile as I am sure they did others.
Unfortunately I did not log any of the names of the people who I had conversed with on this site so I thought the next best thing would be to let them know what happened to me, hence my current posting.
Once again I don’t mean to cause offence by this posting.

it’s ok, I’m sorry if I came off kind of harsh. your post just struck a nerve with me. it sounded too much like ‘please feel sorry for me’. just don’t take yourself so seriously and it’ll be cool. and besides, if you stick around for any length of time you can be sure you’ll run into the others again.

It looks like I will have to watch how I post in future, because believe me I definitely didn’t want it to appear like a ‘please feel sorry for me’ posting, merely an address to let others know what had happened to me and that I hadn’t just disappeared for no apparent reason.

I thank you for taking the time to converse with me and I hope we can meet again on a much better footing in future.

Hello.

Your other account was wiped. This is likely because it was not verified within the time limit specified. There is no way to get the account back unfortunately, so I suggest you use this one.

How stupid am I on a scale of 1-10?

I can’t believe that through my own fault I got my help.com account deleted on this my second day.
