At least in my book.

I think a short vacation is a good idea. Think about your attitute towards those issues. Now, I'm not telling you to definitely change your views (you obviously had your reasons to form them) but I appreciate the fact that our words reached you and made you think things through.

Well, maybe 'okay' isn't the right word, but you're doing what you can to mend things, and that's certainly admirable.

I'm still a rookie, so maybe it's not my place to say, but you stepped back, apologized, and you're taking time away and letting things cool off. I've been in similar situations by making sections of a community angry or upset, and I can appreciate the maturity behind your decision.

I don't think anger makes you a bad person. I think it's what you do with it.

I only stayed away for about a week, but during that time I began a study (still ongoing), and I've learned a lot. I think you will too, and I wish you luck.

Think about it, and then talk about it with a qualified therapist. You have serious issues with anger. Get them sorted, for your own sake.
