Couldn't agree more...........shame some people on here seem to do it for kicks

no

Sorry but I'm with Northwind on this one.

I know some things were said and issues were raised and some feelings were hurt but, as far as I know, this is mostly adults on here and if we can't act like adults and accept an apology when one is given then how are we to carry on??

If you can't accept an apology then I'd hate to be your wife/husband and on the receiveing end of an argument. You would be forever angry. How can you live like that?

Life is about accepting people for who they are; and accepting at times that we are not always right.

The guy felt he was wrong and he said sorry.

That should be enough.

Life is too short.

If anything, you've hijacked the thread yourself to let off some anti GYKD steam, which was completely irrelevant to the original.

I've got no anti GYKD steam in me mate. See here for my normal response to a post by Joe.
If you look at the suicide thread i didnt post a single thing in there.

My simple point was that if he had started his own appology thread maybe more people wouuld have seen it and put their responses to him in there.

I think that by mixing his appology in with Lissa's it diluted any real appology from him. After all Lissa said very little to annoy anyone and she felt like appologising for her own reasons, GYKD knew he had upset a lot of people and even went back to change his original comments in the suicide thread so that others who had not read his original comments would not see why everyone was having a pop at him.

If I felt i needed to appologise to the forum as a group then i would deinately start my own thread so people could see it and respond to me and the issues i may have caused them. I felt it was unfair to hijack Lisa's thread for what could have become a 5 page debate about how Joe had upset certain members.

And if you look closely Northy, you will see i did say "just a thought"

I agree with Northwind. Also from a complete third person point of view, this:

was completely uncalled for.

But your 'opinion' is just basically personal abuse - no reasoned argument or even credible input.

Exactly what we should try to avoid & what this forum DOESN'T need !!

I'm going to further derail Lissa's apology with my own You got painted with the wrong brush there Spidey, I can see you meant it genuinely and not as a dig.
