How do I get a 2nd chance?

Look everyone. I messed up, OK? I didn't read the rules before I began posting & I made some poor posts as a result.

I would like to apologize & ask advice on how to get you people to give me a 2nd chance?

Everyone messes up sometimes (if you say you never have, then you're a liar). Most just can't admit when they do. I have admitted it & am politely asking for a 2nd chance.

How do I get it?

    Step 1: Lurk. Read the threads, learn the ropes.

    Step 2: Stay away from the new topic button for a while. If in doubt, go back to step 1.

    So lemme see if I have this straight.

    5 Days ago you made a PAX guide on your site, rather than posting the guide on the forum.. you linked to the site, this appears to be an attempt to generate traffic. That's refered to as "Site Whoring".

    2 Days later, you posted in the artist's corner trying to get the artists there to make a logo for your site under the flimsey pretense of a contest.This was promptly locked as this isn't the first time people have tried to commision free art from talented artists here.

    Now here is where you start to go very very wrong. A few hours ago, after the first contest thread was locked, you make an IDENTICAL THREAD exactly like the old one in every way except for the title. Your first one wasn't locked arbitrarily it was locked because it violated the rules, and.. wonder of wonder, your identical thread did too.

    Here's the next mistake you made.. Going to Social Entropy++ to apologize, Social Entropy doesn't care.. Social Entropy is a random chat forum, The various subforums are somewhat like states in a nation. They're all Penny-Arcade forum, but they're also all semi-autonomous entities.

    With that in mind, you come in to Help and Advice, yet another seperate entity to make an extremely nebulous plea for a "second chance". The fact that you havn't been banned or jailed suggest that you have that chance, and your plea for help was so vague and obscure that I actually had to go research what the hell you did in order to figure out what advice I could give.

    And that advice is this, Stop trying to use this community to further your site.

    Everything I've seen from you seems to be, in some way, trying to leech from this community and use it to further your own. It shows, it's rude, and the people here won't apreciate it. Stop it.

    Reading and obeying the rules would be a good start. Like, not making junk-threads in H/A. Stop doing dumb stuff, stop seeking instant fame and gratification. Lurk. Stop crapping up my lawn. This isn't SE anyway, H/A doesn't generally hold grudges unless you do something really absurd like habitually ignore everyone and lash out at people who don't tell you what you want to hear, or advise someone to commit rape.

    or advise someone to commit rape.

    That was one time and you still won't let me forget it will you?

    If I have to remember it so do you. And actually while there was only one explicit case of such there has been plenty of advice that was tantamount to rape, such as "if your girl isn't ready yet just get her drunk!".
