What things do you regret doing on the wiki, forum, or etc.?

Your apology has meaning, but you need to make sure you improve as well to make it truly sincere
That was posted about a month ago, I think Baby Luigi on Fire and I are on good terms now.
 
Y'all know mine. I don't wanna mention it again.

There's one user in particular that asked me why I brought it up every time I did. I don't to make a drama over it all over again, I wanted to explain why. I'm hard on myself every time something like that happens. I actually got tempbanned but I'm not going to tell the story again.

I also wanted to apologize to those who I was about to mess with their story arcs in the Car Wash. I didn't know how roleplay is played in the forums (I thought everyone followed one storyline and I thought I was just contributing to make it more interesting-that's why I asked "can my storyline be the next?" in the PM-because I thought everyone followed one story. I now know how to roleplay in the forums, but that was a bit confusing to me. Changing my theme permanently to Blitz the Hero seemed to be the best thing for me to do: all those things happened before my theme change, not only I changed my theme into my OC but I also wanted to become a different user in the forums and leave those incidents in the past. I'm not gonna bring it up again.

I don't think it's good to keep certain things inside you for too long, so I'm going to open myself a little now. I'm still frustrated with how people kept putting my content in BJAODN back when I was still trying to get a grasp on English. Rewriting it was one thing, and it's something I did myself for many of my own things eventually, but ridiculizing my edits felt mean-spirited, like it was deadset on just making me back off from something I've always been passionate about. This honestly wounded my self-esteem for a long while and I feel like it would have been more beneficial for everyone had users told me what not to do (without getting berated/warned) so I can improve myself. Clealry, all I was trying to do was help the site grow, and I've always been concerned with quality--however I perceived it--so I think giving me advice would have been a good investment.

These are things that I wanted to lay off my chest for a while but I was doubting where to and if I should; to steer closer to the thread's subject, I would say that I regret putting other people's writing in BJAODN. I just used to be full of pity and I'm sorry if I hurt anyone.
 
honestly bjaodn is such a fun read to me but i also kinda dont vibe with making fun of what other people have written so what you feel about it makes sense
 
Oh, yeah, there is stuff there that is actually funny. This one cracks me up everytime:

Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy

It also features a new mini-game and minor enemies such as Melon Bugs and Mildes. Yoshi will also get high on crack cocaine.

And there's also these:

As a frog, Mario can capture a frog to jump extremely high and reach high platforms and places that he could otherwise not reach.

Phantom of the Bwahpera is a character set to appear in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. He is a levitating, heavyset Rabbid with an Enlightenment-style attire and an underside resembling a bubble with a pornograph inside. His name is also a pun on the Phantom of the Opera.

Notice how these are either typos that are featured because they sound funny without trying to pin the author down (if I wrote "pornograph" instead of "phonograph" I would still have a laugh about it and would still deserve a place there), or just works or a trickster who probably wanted to get featured on BJAODN.

Speaking of BJAODN, I regret getting carried away with writing a certain article which became its own entry.
 
Trying to be the main user. I always thought that there was a "user of the month" or something like that, so I always tried to post in every thread, even if I didn't belong there. I'm sorry if I ruined somebody's thread.
 
That anti-vaxxer thing I did earlier could've been worded way better.
Also, me not knowing what a thread is in my younger days here.
Those have been figured out, though.
So, that's pretty good.
 
I regret making that thread about the DK rumor from a while back. I added a note to the thread explaining my thoughts, but basically, I've since realized that nothing good comes from hyping up rumors/leaks that we don't even know the legitimacy of.
 
I regret being dragging out about the decision made early this month I was hoping wouldn't be made, especially one comment I made in the Justice For All Case 3 is Terrible thread where even as a joke about my desires it wasn't good to do.

I also regret and apologize for sometimes really having my OCD leak out inappropriately on the 12th Poll Committee, like warning @Door Trace intensely to put up the new poll less than even an hour after the 3 PM mark, creating a thread insisting the April Fools' poll to be archived some ways less than 24 hours after it ended, and trying to speed up passing polls getting passed by badgering other users more than one time.

I shouldn't have mentioned on Discord the ban of one of the former users either. I had misfired repeatedly on that issue before and handled it horribly, and even pathetically, and felt that that was the best way to make amends for it, but now I realize that the best way to make amends is to move on. (Note that while I deleted this part because I felt like it wasn't good to mention, something recently has convinced me that it is extremely important to keep). In addition when putting this back up, I want to apologize for how I have handled the ban of that user; I was horrid and a failure on it to a disgusting extent, misinterpreting the problem repeatedly as people underreacting in a constantly reminding manner, and like with the mentioning on DIscord that was horrible for keeping the user old news.

I also shouldn't have asked whether there was a third-worst user on Discord as that could be interpreted as wanting to gossip almost like, that kind of subject is enjoyable

My old userpage. Dear GOD my old userpage. Too much personal information, plus it was mostly written by 14 year old me. I HATE 14 year old me. In fact, now that I think of it, looking back on my early days on here I cringe at almost all of it. Oh well, character development I guess.
 
My old username on the Mario Wiki was my actual name. Oh my gosh… that's so embarrassing…
 
I've been really careful not to do anything immature or stupid on here, so I haven't made any blunders (not that I ever would because I'm too mature for that), but I still kind of regret posting in the thread about beautiful Mario games something in a Zelda game and thus being off topic. I'm so glad I didn't derail the thread train so much that the thread train crashed violently and became a trainwreck (went into way too much detail about what happened to it first time I posted this here LOL).

Watching certain Kingdom Hearts YouTubers and interacting with the KH fanbase for a year. That was where I learned the internet is full of assholes.
 
I mean...I'm kinda new but when making my user page I got warnings of me saving too much. Oh god. And I'm one of those people who never gets in trouble or talks rarely, (like one time in class we were choosing some person to research and when I said the name of my person this guy was like "Oh my god, she talked!") So when I do get warnings or get in trouble I feel so bad like I comitted an unforgivable sin.

I feel the same way as you! I feel super bad whenever I make mistakes and upset others. Don't let it get to you - You're a great person!
 
Participating in Mafia games. I'm the root of the whole "or exhibiting a self-destructive attitude in response to game pressure or events." segment in the strategy board rules thread. I'm sure my immaturity and whininess and general annoyingness is my defining trait in the minds of many older members. Made the mistake the first time, melted down, apologized, "I'm not going do it again!". Made the mistake twice, was reached out to and got guidance, practically ignored, melted down, Made the mistake again, another melt down, apologized, "I won't do it again!". Then again, again, again, again, again, again. I don't how many mafia games I've participated in, I don't know, I subconsciously repressed memories of them and they're all a really painful blur. At some point during those times I just resigned, thought "Yeah any words from are worthless now." which they were at that point. I felt like nobody wanted to hear anything from me ever again.

When I experience emotions, I really EXPERIENCE them, mentally and physically. When I'm happy it's all pacing around with a smile and whatever I'm like a living breathing cartoon character, it's fucking embarrassing. Back then I was gripping the sides of my head, biting down on whatever was in my hands, even sometimes the hands themselves. In my mind I was going through it too, I just wanted to scratch my face off over and over and slam my head against a wall over and over. Yeah, oh the pity, boo hoo Flygon, I'm just saying I was a shitshow.

And y'know I was a little right about people here not wanting anything with me, they were justified in that, but it wasn't some goofy "Ugh, I do not want you in my sight!" Disney Channel bullshit. Just like "Oh the crybaby's is joining the game. Yeah, she's gonna melt down, just got to wait for it." "Oh the annoying kid made her stupid over the top long ass RP post, not reading that.". I feel opinions on me have probably improved, now I'm just the slightly annoying sensitive kid who isn't funny and is taking whatever she's currently participating in way too seriously. And I guess I've been beating myself up in this post a lot and rereading as of writing it's been obnoxiously self-pitying so far. But whatever I'll finally get to the point.

I'm sorry. That's it, it's hardly anything at all, this has been a pretty mopey shitty apology. It's better than not giving one at all. I don't know, I just want to get this off my chest now, this post sucks I'll stop kicking myself down.
 
@Flygon64 Everybody makes mistakes. You don't have to be so hard on yourself. And besides, you're a teenager, and guess what? Teenagers act immature and stupid and say and do impulsive, immature, stupid things a lot! It's normal, so that's another reason not to be hard on yourself. Any problems you have behaviorally you'll probably outgrow once you're an adult, and then you won't stress out over this anymore. And besides, I'm an adult myself, and guess what? The first forum I was ever on, I annoyed the absolute crap out of everyone because I have ADHD and I talked too much, plus I would say impulsive, stupid stuff. But I learned through maturity and time to learn how to be more socially skilled, both online and in real life. So don't be so hard on yourself. You're only human, and you're in a developmental stage of your life where it's normal for your age to do and say stupid impulsive stuff. Like, look, if everyone on here doesn't like you right now, as you mature and move on from all this, over time, people will see you have changed and they'll like you. But you have to also like yourself and accept yourself for who you are despite your flaws. And besides that it doesn't matter what other people think of you, just what you think of yourself. So relax. Don't be so hard on yourself. Like, don't take yourself-and life-so seriously. If you do that, you won't be able to enjoy it as much. Anyway, whatever mistakes you made on here in the past-forget them. Move on from them. It doesn't matter who you were in the past as much as it matters the kind of person you decide to be today. Also another thing it sounds like you might be dealing with some stuff and I'm here for you, even if nobody else is. Because I used to have depression myself. Anyway, it just made me really sad seeing you completely beating up on yourself like this. ☹️

Well, first of all, the first day I was active on here was the day they announced Mario Wonder. and I think I spammed like 20 times in the Nintendo Direct thread, not knowing how to conduct proper behavior on forums. I did a lot of other really dumb stuff after that too, like posting all kinds of awkward stuff and getting into fights on here and the wiki, but oh well, I've learned from that for the most part. I guess the lesson is that you shouldn't take yourself too seriously, you'll have good days and bad days, you'll say smart stuff and stupid stuff, but that's what make people people, nobody's perfect.
