Resignation

Dear Members,

I just wanted to tell you all that I'm upset and sad about how this has happened. I know I should have resigned a while ago when my life became to hectic to deal with USNW, I just really didn't want to let it go but I never thought it would end up like this. I was friends with most of you, I would like to think I still am, you know who I am, what I stand for, how I work. You should all know more than anyone not to believe everything you hear, I know Ale is a good guy, but how it happened and what you've heard is completely wrong and false. What happened WAS NOT sexual harassment, if I had proof, I would prove it to you, but I can't because I deleted that stuff months ago when it happened. I will tell you what happened though, and I would hope since you were my friends and how much I did for you all and how much you did for me that you would believe me.

I don't know what you were told really, just that it was sexual harassment, but it started a few months ago when Ale told me that he had started having sex. He told me about how he masturbated and such and I told him I did too, and we talked about that. He told me that he and Rod had done it together and that he was confused about his sexuality but that he definitely wasn't gay, maybe bisexual. One night we were both horny and we sent EACH OTHER pictures over Voxer, I didn't just send him one, we both sent each other pictures, that's how it happened. That was the ONLY time I sent him a picture. I don't know what he's showed you or anyone, but I'm swearing on my whole time here that that was the ONLY time I sent him anything inappropriate, and he sent stuff back, it was completely consensual. After that we kept on talking for a few weeks on Skype and over Voxer about life and such, then he sent me another picture on the computer, of course I deleted it. After I began loosing time for USNW we started talking less and less, and I would crack a few jokes and he would too. Then he messaged me the other night and said he'd spilled the beans about the picture, but not this, so he lied to me about that, I guess. Just like he lied to you if he told you it was sexual harassment. I only did that with him because I trusted him, but I guess you can't trust everyone, I made a stupid mistake and I'm sorry, but I didn't do what you were told. I hope you believe me, I really do.


I want to ask you all, I was closer friends with some of you than I was with Ale, if I was really like this, would I have not tried to mess with you? I am not a creeper, I am 15 years old and I have hormones. I thought Ale and I were friends so we did that, apparently he used me for some personal gain or something, I really don't know, I'd like to believe that he let is out on accident and he really didn't mean this, but I don't know. I really just want my name cleared, sexual relations with another member are not against the rule, what we did had absolutely nothing to do with USNW and what happened was inappropriate but it was not what you've heard. I'm a teenager, I make mistakes, I just really want to ask all of you for your forgiveness. I'm not going to be coming back any time soon, but it's not because of this, you all know that I am too much of a fighter to give up over a lie but I don't have time for USNW right now, my life is really hectic and busy, I'm hoping once summer comes around I will have more time, but I won't come back unless you want me. I just really want you all to know that what you've heard isn't true. With that, I will officially resign from my posts and from the union. I won't take down the site, nor will I mess with anything if you still want to use it and not go through the mess off transferring it. Again, I'm really sorry, but I DID NOT harass anyone.

Sincerely,
Chip

:"\ Then why are you resigning

I'm resigning because I don't have time for this right now, my life is really busy and hectic, which is why I haven't been here for a month. I don't want to stay if I can't do my part.

Umn Hmn

I for one accept your explanation and I hope that this isn't the last we have heard of you.

We had our issues, but for the entire time I knew you and talked to you on skype, you were all about the USNW and your support for it and the members was unwavering, even when you banned me ..lol

I'd like to think I understand what Ale is like, and I hope it wasn't anything intentionally malicious on his behalf and I hope one day we can reconcile and be friends outside of the USNW.

Good luck with your future and school and anything else you do.

I know that I JUST walked into this group, which is a year old now, but I can still try to understand situations that are very real like this.

What I believe to be universal, is that one's personal life should remain personal. So the USNW has absolutely nothing to do with this. And thank you for giving your side of the story, it helped me understand what happened. And I'll assume you're telling the honest truth here. If this Ale guy really did leave out the part where the exchanges were consensual, then I can see how people would think of that as Harassment.

Also, saying that you won't mess with the site and content is very mature of you. Perhaps now that this story has much fewer holes, it can come to a stable solution, and maybe see you returning to the site this summer.

Does this Ale guy visit the site? Could he vouch for this in any way?

I trust your sequence of events Chip and really it brought a tear to my eye and if it was true I never knew that ale could have the capacity of this. I think that you leaving the site up is very nice of you and I hope come summer we can knock down the bridge between this event and how good a member you are. And Michael, he use to but he's been away for the while because of some problem with home or something

I honestly don't know what story to trust. These are completely different stories and I have no idea what to make of this. Though I do wish that the site ownership would be transferred, so we can move it to a safe email (if it isn't too hard). Though after hearing two stories, I don't know what to say or do.

I never really got to know either of you that well and I have no comment as to which side I agree with or believe, also because I know so little that has gone on seeing as I don't use the union skype.

Kurt, think about it, how long have you known me? Do you really think I would do something like this? And you SHOULD NOT have edited my post, you took out over half of the story of what happened, none of that should have remained private, it was the story of what happened. This is serious business, I'm telling my story, and you just took it away from the eyes of everyone that needed to see it. If anyone would like to know what happened unedited by Kurt, then feel free to message me and I'll give you the full story. This isn't something you can just edit out because it hurts someone's feelings, if that were the case then the whole deal should have been edited out because I am extremely upset about this, I've cried numerous times since this happened, especially when I read some of you guys' posts about me when I thought you would know I would never do something like that.

Like I said to you last night Chip, I'm still confused with this fuzz. I accept your explanation and it is very credible.

@Michael on Ale Question - He used to be a member, but moved back to AIN.
EDIT @Kurt: Never remove stuff that is essentially sensitive

Have fun on your future endeavours Chip!

Well, I logged onto the site not too long ago, and I'll just say this for now: Goodbye Chip, and good luck! It was great having you around.

Whoa Chip's Activity index is -2147484619 xDxDxD

Are you sure it's that low, Carl? Because it doesn't look like it's anywhere close to that number to me

He is removing for a reason :"\

It was that low earlier until Kurt reset it for me.

Guys, when you're a teenager, $censored$ happens. I've had plenty of crap happen during my years that I wish I could go back and fix or keep from happening. That's how life is. Also, think about it, if this Ale guy really WAS Sexually Harassed, he would have reported it to the police. Cyber crimes are big these days.

I'd suggest that, after that explanation Chip gave, we just try to resolve this, put it behind everyone, and let Chip move on with his life. If you still think something wrong happened here, maybe someone should get back in touch with that Ale guy, get a more detailed explanation from him too so we can properly cross-reference the information.

Please excuse me if I was too stern.

I apologize for all of the dumb stuff I've done, and I'm glad to say that my foolish actions will end soon.

I say forget the issue .. both people are no longer members of the USNW .. so lets move on.

I'm gonna agree with Fox but Mike's right, Life happens. Lets all just wake up towmorrow (or go to sleep tonight if that's your time zone) with a smile on our face and towmorrow, be refreshed looking at this like it's a brand new union with limitless possibilities. I think this was all just a big misunderstanding and it needs to be dropped. Chip, I wish you the best with whatever you do from here out.

Chip! Please come back once things are back to normal.

He was banned though, I'm not sure if that will be rescineded or not, and I have a feeling it wont be regardless or what chip says or **** says.

guiz, this is silly

Chip ain't a member, he just resigned.
Ale ain't a member, he went a while back.
The relevance of this argument went from a little to none when chip resigned.

So, let's just shuffle along eh? Life goes on?

Actually, I was the one who reset Chip's AI I agree with most of the posts above me here.

I can understand you being busy, Chip. All I say is good luck. I really appreciate you leaving the site alone and explaining the entire truth straight-forward.

Did you do that on purpose, or is Kurt's name really censored?
