If we both agree on what osie just said, which we do, I think that settles that.
It is very clear to me that I messed up, and I acknowledge and accept that going forward, making sure to learn from the experience.
I am, however, not okay with suggestions that I was disobeying personal mod warnings or was acting to try and gain any sort of in-game advantage, when neither is true. I will accept on good faith this was not your intent, and apologize for taking it as such.
I agree with osie that all relevant parties have talked about this sufficiently long enough to reach understanding, and there is no further need for public discourse on the topic beyond osie's statement above, which basically covers all relevant points.
As someone who only skimmed the thread, I have a question: why did orangeandblack get modkilled?
See the three-ish posts I made immediately before my modkill was announced
In short, I think we've all agreed that it shouldn't have happened, but at the time an assumption was made that I was acting in bad faith to try and gain an advantage through abuse of out-of-game information when, in truth, I was not. Hence the modkill.
My understanding of this is quite different. There was a mass warning in game to keep OOG things out of thread. You we warned privatly already about this as well. Finally you brought in another OOG thing to help read a player.
I let y'all know when stuff was rough in my life because it's genuinely helpful when it comes to dealing with people to know where their head is at
I'm not about to let people derail things into pointless arguments with somebody who has more important ***** to deal with rn
This quote demonstrates that you were indeed using this OOG thing to help read a player. It doesn't matter what your intention was. You attempted to use OOG information and brought it in to help read someone.
Your understanding of this is incorrect, as osie will attest to.
At no point was I individually warned about anything this entire game, and I have no memory of any generic warning being made in the time since I subbed in (it's possible one was indeed made, but by the time I had heard there was a threadwide warning, I had also been informed that my actions were, upon further review, found to be entirely devoid of malicious intent, so I didn't bother looking for one).
Additionally, I was not bringing in out-of-game info to help read any player or push any agenda. I was only trying to break up a fight between two people before things devolved into further hostilities. I have been doing this for long enough to know that that kind of behavior is frankly disgusting, and would never attempt to exploit somebody else's misfortune for a small advantage in a mere game.
I do readily admit it was insensitive of me to bring up things from another player's personal life without asking them if that is something they are okay with. It was wrong of me to assume that just because he had posted about his situation in two other widely public group chats also meant he was okay with having it brought up in-game, and for that I am truly sorry.
However, my own words that you just quoted directly contradict your suggestion that I was doing anything with that information other than trying to avoid Wisp going through any more emotional duress on what was already a bad day. I even mentioned having told people about my own circumstances when they were rough so people would hopefully understand if I was emotionally drained during the game. It is clear there was no ill intent here, and I have been told as much by every moderator involved with the game. And while I ultimately understand their decision to modkill me before realizing this, in no way do I deserve to have untrue accusations leveled against me after I was essentially modkilled for being insensitive.
All relevant parties will readily confirm everything I say here to be true. Please stop baselessly slandering me by making no good-faith attempt to understand the situation before commenting on it in a manner that insults my integrity as a player. Thank you.

Well, Rod's is confirmed, and he's basically confirmed that he knew it was Rhand who visited him, so I'm inclined to believe his was indeed a dark mark ability.
