I did not recall this apology. All I recalled was the denial to have the offending post removed. I was very embarrassed by it and just wanted it off the thread. I wanted you to "take it back" so to speak...and you could have. I would have appreciated it, because I did found it and still find it so personally embarrassing.
If I said something about a friend of mine that embarrassed them or hurt them, even in and especially in jest, I would do anything in my power to fix it. I hoped you would have it removed, because it embarrassed me. It hurt me all the more that you didn't and made such a strong statement about it.
But I didn't see your apology and have thought all along that you never apologized. I suppose it's not too late to accept it?
As I said, the opinion I have about the spammers should have just stayed with me. I regret that I lumped all spammers in with Carton and for that, I apologize.
I am really sorry that whole episode embarrassed you. I think we realized after the fact that our double entendre posts had never been directed to you.
It was never meant to be directed at you. I was trying to offend g'nad. It's a guy thing and part of what I thought we've done here all along. I thought you'd take it in stride with all of our other foolishness. That's why I was totally buffaloed when you got angry.
As I tried to state above, there's a lot been said in the past few days. And there's some history there too. Some apparently don't think that matters. I think it's a big part of the story.
My alter ego was a big abuse button pusher in the religion wars. I've just come to the belief that Post # removed by Admin Moderator just causes a lot more grief than just letting things stand.
And if you stay away from Entmoot because of me, Ruthy will have me drawn and quartered...
