I'm glad for your apology, as I mentioned to another TO who has a habit of abandoning tournaments recently, its a lot easier to destroy your reputation than it will be to rebuild it. It will take you many years of hard work doing so. My suggestion would be to only start what you can finish so if you don't have the 2-3 months to commit to putting in the time on your tournament then don't start it.
You can hide behind your youth and use it as an excuse for your actions but until the actions themselves change you won't find the attitudes towards you changing either. One of the advantages of a site like CC is that everyone is judged based on what they do and how they comport themselves. It doesn't matter if you're 10, 14, 22, 41 or 78 we're all judged here based on what we do and don't do and how we respond and interact with those around us.
