The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I would like you to read this a few times before passing your judgements on me.
The Situation: Contrary to popular belief, I was actually off SR for 10 days, until the pressure got too far for me to handle. I promised Stryke that I wouldn't return for 30 days, but the torment, insults and accusations behind my back have got to me to the point where I have to come back and make a statement.
My statement: I want to thank those who stood up for me (namely Edgy) and reported certain people for particular offences (though I doubt much will be done). Next agenda - Mr Snuggly. Now, I know we haven't always seen eye to eye, but I was wondering if we can start a clean slate and I can be eligible for GAD again and it can go back to normal. Notables, contenders and anyone else whose wondering. I will not be starting a boycott unless myself or others are bullied. We have the support, but I really don't want to start a war on these forums. To anyone that has badmouthed me: I don't hate you, but am incredibly disappointed at your ignorance and the pure fact that you had to say it behind my back. I don't enjoy FOG as much as I used to, partly due to my own selfishness, but everyone on here is so hostile towards each other now, and trying to catch each other copying (and copying too!). When it was me, Grix, Golden Rhino, SSX Pro and Dringo, it was perfect. This grading system is in my opinion a sham and is not the right way to go about things.
The bottom line is this: I want it to go back to normal, with NO insults, because I have a zero tolerance for bullying on these forums and I'm sick to death of it. I want to win GAD's, I want to chat about games, films and life, and I want to be accepted, if I can put the term loosely. I still stand by my premise that the "I HATE YOU!" post was a joke, and SR were thinking up any reason to get me banned. However, I just wanna start again as Desert Beetle and make some friends on here, and possible make the peace between a few enemies. I don't want this topic filled up with crap about how much of a "loser" I am, but sensible contributions. I don't mind honest opinions, but please keep the insults to a very low minimum. Cheers. Shaun.

To be honest, I myself can't see any problem with this.
Of course you'd have to expect people checking up on your reviews and messages very carefully for anything being copied, but as your willing to make a go, surely other members would be too.
And before the staff say anything, I know he broke the rules, but he's been back for a while as you can see already and he hasn't caused any trouble under this new username has he?
And if anyone starts insulting him, I hope they are prepared to suffer the consequences of breaking the rules themselves. Two wrongs don't make a right!

Well I'm certainly willing to let you have that chance.
You do understand though that things wouldn't go back to normall straight away in-fact they might never go back to normall but at least this way you have a chance of making some friends and winning GAD's honestly.
You might not make friends with everybody but at least this way will be better than before.
Good luck.
Welcome Back
NOTE TO OTHERS:
If you want to hate me for liking shaneo then fine go ahead, but you cannot tell me who I can and can't make friends with.
So please at least give him a chance.

Welcome back. I knew Desert Beetle was you...i just knew! :)
Let's hope things go well
Hi Shaneo/Desert Beetle or whatever. Nice to meet you. Even if everybody else hates you, I've got nothing against you. I don't even know what you did.

Well I guess what I said in my previous post counts for anybody that likes Shaneo
