Good call Max.

There was no need for that response to Jod5413. I wish people would just keep to the issues and not get personal.

Max,

It is so refreshing to know that Chivalry is alive and well!

Apparently I owe CM and its members this apology:

I hereby formally apologize for assuming that it was OK to defend my free speech from a CM member who I shall refer to as "so-n-so", going forward. (This text was written in advance of the ban lift so I din't have access to look up who I offended - one Jod5413 so it seems. So those of you who are familiar with Jod5413 just substitute Jod5413 for "so-n-so" where ever it appears in this apology - if personalizing the subject makes the experience more life-like and enjoyable for you. But for those who may generally have a hard time keeping names straight, or otherwise don't know Jod5413, you can just read the "so-n-so"s as "so-n-so" - unless you are planning an introduction in the near future. -b) For this, I also apologize but I don't remember so-n-so's name since so-n-so and I have never even been properly introduced. Nevertheless, I apologize for trying to defend myself from so-n-so's attack which was direct, personal and entirely unprovoked by myself. So-n-so, if you will recall, whom I don't know from Adam, referred to a post I had made as "crude" and "rude". I replied out of anger. I now realize this and I apologize for using vulgarities in my defense. In particular, I used vulgar words containing both three as well as four asterisks! It is this for which I am especially ashamed and won't even ask so-n-so's forgiveness nor the forgiveness of any CM member unfortunate to have been subjected to this maelstrom, this maniacal tirade, as I would be a hypocrite to ask forgiveness for something I, myself, could never forgive. So I'll just say, "I am sorry" and leave it at that. I feel I must also apologize for assuming that so-n-so might be able to take what so-n-so so readily dished out and for assuming so-n-so possessed an ounce of wit or even a sense of humor. My bad. I apologize for it all, I am sorry, sorry, sorry and especially to so-n-so, one more, heart-felt "so, so sorry".

Note as of this posting: I hadn't remembered but just saw that at the end of the post for which I was banned, I wrote "No offense." My exact words. Still, even though I surly meant "no offense" I will allow this apology to stand. Guess I'll just be big about the whole thing.

Might not be the perfect apology but at least it's a step in the right direction and it should be encouraged.

"Apparently" you're not sure if you owe anyone an apology.

Yup... I can sure tell what a "sincere" apology you have issued here...

But for those who may generally have a hard time keeping names straight, or otherwise don't know Jod5413, you can just read the "so-n-so"s as "so-n-so" - unless you are planning an introduction in the near future. -b) For this, I also apologize but I don't remember so-n-so's name since so-n-so and I have never even been properly introduced.

You had a week to "figure out" the name of the specific poster you refer to as "so-n-so"... and I'm quite sure YOU were the only one that was baffled by that.

Nevertheless, I apologize for trying to defend myself from so-n-so's attack which was direct, personal and entirely unprovoked by myself. So-n-so, if you will recall, whom I don't know from Adam, referred to a post I had made as "crude" and "rude".

"Attack"??

jod5413 posted this:

She found your comments offensive... and added her thoughts about it.
You view that as an "attack"??

I view that as jod5413 expressing her feelings in a polite and reasonable manner. If you read her post as "direct, personal and entirely unprovoked"... you need a thicker skin.

I replied out of anger. I now realize this and I apologize for using vulgarities in my defense. In particular, I used vulgar words containing both three as well as four asterisks!

Sarcasm at it's finest, bernynhel.

You obviously are NOT sorry for ANYTHING you posted... but you obviously did choose to use this as an opportunity to show everyone what an articulate and witty person you think you are.

So I'll just say, "I am sorry" and leave it at that. I feel I must also apologize for assuming that so-n-so might be able to take what so-n-so so readily dished out and for assuming so-n-so possessed an ounce of wit or even a sense of humor. My bad. I apologize for it all, I am sorry, sorry, sorry and especially to so-n-so, one more, heart-felt "so, so sorry".

Yes... you sure are one "sorry" dude.

Note as of this posting: I hadn't remembered but just saw that at the end of the post for which I was banned, I wrote "No offense." My exact words. Still, even though I surly meant "no offense" I will allow this apology to stand. Guess I'll just be big about the whole thing.

Your attempt at issuing an "apology" is total bullshit.

"No Offense" to you bernynhel... but I did "neg rep" you for being an asshole...

[bb28]

Bernynlhel.......I'm with Mrracetrack on this one. When I first read your so called apology, I thought to myself what a bunch of BS!!! I don't see why you couldn't just be an adult and say simply, I'm sorry. It wasn't cute or funny or whatever your intention was......you were rude and crass in the original comment and also in your so called apology.

You all make no sense. Your doing the EXACT same thing.

One person says something that offends someone, then gets put on "vacation" but then other people come in and say some things.

So it's only ok for certain people to say shit here then?
