In a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1HHF7M4j_j7OHnbnkTHdhcMr7NOpkKLMT52cxdDG5Y5I\/edit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Doc<\/a> shared with the thread via social media, our hero explained how posting in SA&apos;s community had been an important part of his life, how he had done a lot of growing up and a lot of mental healing in the intervening 100,000 hours, and how he now regretted his life as an infamously abrasive poster.<\/p>\n<p>But still, even with his new outlook, he recognised the end of his ban could be an incredible opportunity for comedy. His decision? To set a calendar reminder and resume his argument like no time had passed at all, picking on a poster from back in the day that he had no beef with whatsoever, committing to the bit before dropping the account entirely.<\/p>\n<p>Which is, frankly, quite heartwarming on top of being the greatest feat of posting I&apos;ve ever witnessed. As strange as it might sound to say it, online communities like SA are an important aspect of a lot of people&apos;s lives. Lord knows I&apos;ve gone through several over the course of my life that have actually shaped me as a person. Coming back 1.1 decades after a minor forum spat has ended to pick up the gauntlet again seems like a perfect way to reflect just how serious and ridiculous that is all at once.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Etherwind was right.
