Imma take a moment to compliment the OP on his amended attitude. DnD is a social game and can creep up under your skin hard when tensions at the table become mingled with tensions between the actual people manning the table. I understand feeling defensive after an experience like this, and take my hat off to the OP for apologizing for his mistakes first. If no one ever makes the first apology, everyone would have much fewer friends.
Our table has never had any real PvP, not under me and not the other two DMs I've played under. Playing an abrasive character in a way that everyone at the table can enjoy is HARD man, a tough pick for a first character. Making mistakes is how we grow if we are humble enough to realize when we are in the wrong.
Amendment, we had a moment of PvP once, when I introduced a dwarf character into an ongoing campaign and got in a fist fight with my cousin's hobgoblin (a "let's settle this outside" kinda moment during the first minutes of me being there and on his provocation, but we managed to duke it out in good humor and continue on a shared goal of hunting down the new chieftain of the hobgoblin's tribe who had murdered the old leader, friend to my cousin's character; our characters became trustful of each other over a few sessions though not exactly friends yet).
