Hi mods, devs, and the mighty algorithmic eye of ToxMod. I want to offer my sincere and humble apology for something that has been weighing heavily on me since it happened. During a recent game of Among Us 3D, I accidentally said the word “sh*t.” Just once. It wasn’t shouted, it wasn’t aimed at anyone, and honestly, it barely even had emotion behind it. It just… slipped out. Like an accidental vent press. One moment I was doing my tasks, the next I was muttering a forbidden word because someone jump-scared me in a hallway. I didn’t even finish the sentence. It just popped out like a bean in a blender and vanished into the air.. or so I thought.

It was a tiny moment. No one in the lobby reacted. There was no chaos, no escalation, not even a “who said that?” But deep down, I knew. I knew ToxMod was probably there, silently listening, glowing red in some digital void, gripping its little clipboard like a disappointed school principal.

I’m truly sorry. I’ve only played 30 minutes so far, but I was already starting to enjoy myself — walking around with my weird little hand, trying to swipe a card that apparently has the hitbox of a ghost, and doing tasks that feel suspiciously like unpaid internships. It’s buggy, it's weird, it barely runs on my PC… but I was into it. I was becoming one with the bean.

And now I live in fear. I keep checking my profile like I’m waiting for a court summons. Will I wake up to a ban? Will I be forced to wander the Steam forums like a lost soul, telling others “enjoy it while it lasts”? I hope not. I respect the rules. I understand why moderation exists. I’m not trying to be edgy or toxic or cool. I’m just a guy who swore once because my heart jumped when Red turned the corner like a serial killer.

Please. Let me atone. I will use only wholesome words from now on. I will shout “oh no!” or “crumpets!” or whatever else keeps ToxMod at bay. I’ll be a good crewmate. I’ll even pretend to enjoy the wiring task.

I don’t want much. Just the chance to keep waddling around, doing my silly little chores, silently accusing the wrong person every round. Thank you for your time, and again.. I’m really, truly sorry.
