Well, I haven't been on the CR wiki for a long time, so that was a lot of catching up. However, I get where you are coming from. It just feels terrible to have your name tied to so many bad things.

The Big Nate Comments Wiki has faced many speedbumps as well, and many users were about to leave, but now all of it has stopped because everyone was able to settle our differences and make agreements for the future.

I understand that you have made many mistakes in your wiki life. Many decisions that you regret, many words you can't take back, and many actions that you can't undo. And that definitely feels like a searing pain. It burns to the bone, doesn't it? I completely understand everything you're saying.

The sad truth is that there some things that you simply can't repair completely. However, you can't make your social life perfect in each and every aspect. Real users are never perfect, and perfect users are never real. And last time I checked, you're a real user. Therefore, not perfect.

What you can do for the future is to settle things with other users. If they are good friends of yours, they will be willing to settle things with you as well, maybe after some time of course. If they are really good friends, they would understand how you feel about this. And a good way for you to move past this is to create more good memories with your friends. If you can be toxic, you can also be kind, as being kind comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.

Ultimately, my answer to your question is yes. Of course toxicity would harm a wiki. However, I know you have helped the wiki loads more than harm it, and harm to a wiki is never permanent if you never let it be. I know you are more than capable of fixing your mistakes. You just need to get back on track. And how you intend to do this is completely up to you.

Follow your instincts! :D
