Hello everyone, my name is Daniel and I have to tell you something. Many of you will know me on the server as "DanielyMery", it's the name I used to use, but I don't intend to anymore. I'm here to tell you the truth, rather then live among lies has been killing me all this time, but before I do, I'd like to put them a little in context:
I joined the server "SentinelCraft" in November 2014. I created an account on the server under the name "DanielyMery", since at that time I was with my girlfriend Mery. At first, we used both the account but after a couple of days, she decided to get out of this account. I instead, I kept in the account without changing the name, because it didn't want to start everything from scratch.
Time passed and I loved the community, was friendly and respectful. People started to ask about my name and the name of DanielyMery, when asked if it was a man or a woman thought it would be fun if I said I was "Mery". Too bad that "fun" didn't last long, I wrapped it in a web of lies which, with the passage of time, I didn't know how to get out of.
The time passed and the most veterans will know that I created a game or contest called "Trivia", I did it mostly because I wanted to support the server and make good friends. After that I got the rank of "Senior Member", time passed and I was "Special" and finally went "Moderator". I made a lot of friends in this lapse of time. They were all very friendly and I recognized for the effort and dedication that I had in the community. Even I won a contest organized on the server to the player more "dedicated". These friends I gained, the trust they gave me and the laughs we shared made me very happy, but when was the end of the day I was always saying, "this is not real, I'm not telling you the truth."
The good times that we spent a lot of us, I'll treasure them always.
A few days ago I couldn't anymore, I just hated the lie. I wanted to tell you so much to all of you who I was, but I was afraid. A lot of fear. Fear of rejection, the shame, that if they knew who I am, leave me. I destroyed the trust that you had placed in me.
Now I understand that my actions are wrong and something I will never repeat. As I said at the beginning, I ask for forgiveness from all those who ever trusted me without knowing who I am.
I'm very sorry, but I want to change. I want to prove who I am. I already did it at the time, but not in the right way. I proved that I can be loyal and friendly with everyone, but this is no use if things are not clear and everything is based on deception.
It only remains to say that I'm sorry about all of this.
Sorry SentinelCraft.
--Daniel

We are not happy to hear that you have been lying to us and everyone here. And will need to take some time to decide what that means as far your role as staff.
For now, you can continue to play on the server, in the capacity you normally do. We will be in touch.

Well, what matters is that you are being truthful now. I actually used to catfish also, so I understand what you were going through... the fear of being denied when coming out as who you really are. I'm so glad you are being truthful now and hope to see you in-game :)
-
It's sad you say it just now, but like sina said it doesn't really matter. You told us the truth now and I am not gonna change attitude because of this. It was always fun playing with you. So for me it doesn't really matter who is controlling the keyboard. Hold it together, what you did was the right choise. Hope to see you in game.
-
As said before it is really good that you told us now instead of letting this get way out of hand. Personally I dont care if you were claiming yourself as Mery, It was still technically you so im not hurt or offended or gonna change how i am with you. I look forward to still playing with you in the future :)

i find no real issue with all this >_> it is a game after all and what you have between your legs really does not matter or effect how your treated unless your a turtle we dont take kindly to any turtles.

excatly what was so bad?!?!?!
-
So you've been Catfishing us?
Someone call Nev and Max.... :P
-
Gender doesnt really matter. But making up an entire persona and lying mulitple times to cover the discrepancies, that is a problem for me. And that is what the staff is considering.
-
Probably not my place to say anything but I think its important to also think that while Daniel may have been lying for a long period of time he also would've learnt through this that lies just end up toppling on top of each other and begins to cause grief and guilt, I truly believe he would never do anything similar to this again and in fact face no punishment which would have an effect that damages his progress amongst climbing the staff tower.
