I thought the stalker was a chick?

Nope, it was a dude. He got a bit clingy with me for a while too, mostly whining about how he loved Bradders yet Bradders couldn't stand him.

Someone wishing to remain anonymous has pointed me to this thread. I was originally going to ignore it and did for the past couple weeks but today decided to offer a reply. I'm not trying to stir up shit. I'm just offering information. I'm Darkhack. I really don't appreciate being called a "stalker". I find it slightly ironic that the people who told me to "move on" two years ago are now the ones who are bringing it up again. I'm disappointed in my past actions, but I'm also upset to see that my past is still being laughed at and mocked to this day.

I'll try to summarize this as shortly as I can. I had mental health issues. I was abusing many prescription drugs at the time. I won't try to defend my past behavior. The only thing I can say is that it's a mistake which I've moved on from.

I'm no longer in contact with Locke and haven't been for some time. I'm okay with that. My issues had nothing to do with him specifically. I had issues with almost everyone I came into contact with at the time. It was often suggested that I was homosexual. I no longer have any same-sex attractions. I'm not trying to suggest homosexuality is a choice or anything like that. I'm merely stating that abusing prescription drugs prescribed for mental health issues can cause behavior that would not otherwise be present in an individual. I'm happily dating women and have healthy relationships again with friends after many years of alienating people due to my drug abuse. I'm still in school, tutor students after class, and I have a high paying internship coming up for the summer.

Another DIC member whom I'm still in contact with asked me if I still post on these forums or intend to do so under a different name. Apart from this message, the answer is no. Trying to coexist here with the past issues I had would be a bad idea. I've only returned temporarily to inform people of where I am today. I only post this myself because asking one of my contacts to do it would create drama for them which they don't deserve. This isn't some attempt to win people back; only to inform people. I dislike the idea of being talked about in such a poor manner that I felt obligated to say something. Trying to defend one's honor on the internet is like trying to look cool while falling off a chair, but if someone is going to necromance old issues that involve me, I think it's fair I get some sort of say.

Mods will probably ban me for posting, so I probably won't be able to answer any questions or reply to any further postings. This post should be sufficient anyway. Any additional posts would likely just fall into the category of stirring up shit. It's best to let it be dead and stay dead this time. Thanks for reading.

Yup that's a buzz kill for a birthday thread if I have ever seen one. Take a well wished birthday thread with some old timey humor and re-purpose it as a "where am I now". Good stuff.
