I understand that you didn't know you'd be here for so long, or become as attached to the community as you are now. A lot of people probably have that mindset when they first join: they're only here to ask a question or show appreciation or whatever, and never imagined sticking around for months or years. But there should've been a certain point way earlier on than this when you decided to stay and get more involved that you explained "I'm not Hilda, I'm Hunter". And you definitely shouldn't have used someone else's images and claimed they were photos of yourself; you have no idea how doing that could effect the actual person's reputation and relationships. I don't understand why you used the "Hilda" alias to begin with? Like I said, I get that you didn't expect to be as involved in the community as you became, but what was the point of ever pretending to be Hilda in the first place?
I don't/didn't know you very well. You replied to a few of my threads, and I replied to a few of yours, but we didn't speak on a personal level. So I'm not really in a place to decide whether you should be forgiven or not. That's up to the people here that formed friendships with the person they thought was Hilda. I do hope everyone that's hurt or angry over this can heal, and that you attempt to make amends with every single one of those people.
