Steel, you've always been one of my favorite posters and I still look on you favorably but I have to call them how I see them.
It was not your place to reveal TTR's plans. Like it or not, TTR and RTTR are both approved by the mods. Trying to ruin plans made by one of these groups is pretty selfish. Some of us enjoy the give and take between TTR and RTTR and you ruined that for us. I don't think that's fair.
Also, posting a pm in public is a pretty dick move. You shouldn't have done that. There are certain barriers of respect that ought not be crossed and that is one of them.
I don't think the things you did were ban worthy offenses but I can see the justification for some sort of temporary punishment. I think you should just consider your little time out as time rightly served and move on. Causing more drama on the forums doesn't really help anything. Also, I think that the ostensible purpose of this thread could have easily been handled via pm.
I know that emotions are running hot right now but I had to say my piece. Again, I like you as a poster and I will continue to in the future but I think you made mistake here. We all make mistakes so there is no sense in judging them harshly. Just my honest opinion.
