force you to belong if you don't want to, but it would be our loss and yours if you chose to resign. It is a difficult thing to make a public apology when you have received criticism from so many, including me, but you swallowed your pride and made both a public and private apology.

You have made very worthwhile contributions to the hobby of casino collectibles, and I believe you have also received worthwhile contributions from your fellow hobbyists. It would be a sad thing just to toss all that aside, especially when your courage has probably further cemented the friendships you already had before the unfortunate incident. I hope you can let this rift heal and go forward as a fellow hobbiest and, I hope, a friend.
