My request for a clean slate.
To whomever it may concern, this is Sam on his new account. I made this account when I was 8. I at first wanted to contribute meaningful articles as soon as I realised the world of Wikipedia was well and truly my oyster, yet soon used it for fun and became somewhat good at doing so. The problem was that I made myself a nuisance to other Wikipedians and readers of the site. I only realise this now as when I used this account for the last time, I was 12. I'm now nearly 16.

To anyone I angered in any manner, administrators, readers, the volunteers that constantly gave up their time to deal with a sixth-grader on his Raspberry Pi, I am sorry. I want to make that clear because no part of me views my conduct around that time as acceptable, justifiable, useful, or okay. I got myself into a situation that I should never have gotten into and I am angry at having done so.

I have matured greatly since this. I would like to request a complete clearing of my old user page and of my talk page, if that's considered okay. I can't get into this account because it's globally locked (damn), but I feel like it needs a refresh. Just to distance myself from the human I once was. Some sixth graders are stupid, some are annoying, I was both, in equal, and inquantifiable measure.

I want to start again. It would mean a lot if someone, anyone, could clear this account and make it visually not indicative of any past wrongdoing. I mean a LOT.

If anyone who's dealt with me in the past is seeing this, I want to offer you my profound apologies for all that was done. You gave up your time to try to deal with a kid whose age wasn't even in double figures and that goes a long way in terms of judgement of character. Well done, thank you, respect.

Sam, over and out. Buster of Ghosts (talk) 18:19, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
