I agree that people have gotten too sensitive and are offended over the simplest things.
That said, there’s a time when you should apologize when you blunder.

If you are truly sincere about your apology and actually do see what you said was just…less than favorable.
I accept your public apology and I too apologize if anything I said describing your words/character being less than favorable. People do make mistakes, just own what you do, and try to not repeat them.
I said I was testing it, and to be honest with you, I wasn’t being called an idiot or a moron before I said I was sorry.
It was wrong that I said it, and I accept that, but the people who said you earn more respect from owning up were factually incorrect.
Really? Because that was literally the first thing that entered my mind after reading your first post in this thread. Based on the responses you’ve had here, it’s not an uncommon opinion.
I was one of those ppl who said that(that you would earn respect back if you owned up to what you said as being bad/in poor taste/wrong etc), and like I said, IF you’re sincere then I do honestly respect you for owning what you said being incorrect…but if you were just being flippant and doing it for S & G’s to see where it would go with absolutely no real intent on trying to do better, then well…my original opinion of you stands.
I did not, however, call you an idiot, moron, or as someone else stated wish you would fall off the face of the Earth…that is pretty much just as bad as your initial statement and disgusting if I’m being honest.
Anyway, take what I said earnestly, or with a grain of salt. I wish you luck in whatever.
Is there such a thing as neutral? Wait and see?
As in, might as well apologise, and if I don’t get verbally beaten to death because I did so, then I was really in the wrong.
At this point this Fox has me very confused I’m not sure if I believe them or not
In the public, you cannot think that everyone will accept you, or your words…some ppl will accept your attempt, again if it’s sincere, but there will still always be those ppl who for whatever reason will still be hard nosed and have that…you’ve done x y z once or a dozen times you’re a bad seed in my book…those ppl have their own quips about life, and it wouldn’t matter if you bought them 51 shares of the most successful company on the stock market, bought them a new home, and paid off all their debt, they will never change their opinion of you once you’ve offended, disrespected, or in some way hurt them.
I’m always guarded, but do tend to give ppl the benefit of the doubt if they show a sign of remorse, or attempt at righting whatever it was they may have done wrong…that being said, their actions from that point on is on them if they keep up the same behavior afterward well then I move on.
That being said…acknowledging that something you did or said was a bad thing, in poor taste or whatever, owning it, not running away from it as ‘oh well whatever it doesn’t matter’…that will mean something to many ppl, in your personal life as well as professional…and even here on these…forums. lmao
Point is, you’re not going to please 100% of the ppl, 100% of the time and that isn’t what you’re trying to do. It’s more showing that you are becoming more self aware, and not just seeing you, and the world revolve around you, but that you are in that world that revolves with us in it.
Have no clue what you’re talking about but def takes eguts to post a public apology
im sorry that you’re sorry
Who are these many people? I got not one like from any of them, and post 140 on is just me apologising and being mocked and namecalled, and posts namecalling me have 5-6 hearts.
Aliandrin: If you apologise, people will see it as weak and you’ll get eaten alive.
People: That’s not true, you’re wrong.
Aliandrin: Alright, I’m sorry. I was wrong.
People: Time to eat her alive! Yeah!
What I said was literally what happened.
This is something I could paste into my very first post on this thread as an edit if I was an a-hole just bent on being right.
The thing is, I want to be wrong about this. I’m even making the leap of faith and admitting I am wrong.
…and… I’m getting eaten alive for it, which is, to be fair, what I said would happen.
This is why you simply state your honest beliefs, without caring that it may upset some people.
You could say you like grass being green and it will upset some people.
You could say the sun feels pleasing on one’s skin and some people would get pissed.
You could say the world would be better if there was more peace, and some people would hate you all the more.
You cannot please everyone.
Don’t try to.
Just be who you are.
Clearly you just want to argue. Take my advice or don’t at this point its looking more like you were just trolling like other ppl have pointed out.
I have explained as best I can to you, it isn’t my fault if you refuse to allow it to set in.
You should actually take the time to read what they have said before making a blanket comment. The OP has demonized entire racial groups, genders and feels that by deleting the offensive content it takes away the harm they caused.
I get people get offended easily at times, but boy oh boy, there is a line that people shouldn’t cross and they tend to pole vault over it on the daily.
As I said, I was neutral. And if I was just focused on “winning the argument” I would just paste that entire exchange into Post 2.
My apology wasn’t taken as sincere by anyone. All they did was tear me apart for it.
What am I supposed to think? This is an honest question.
I get what you mean dude, I wouldn’t apologize for something I said that I don’t feel sorry for just to make people feel better. However if I make a legit mistake then there’s nothing wrong with apologizing.
I took it as sincere once we talked it out earlier today, I do hope you stand by what you told me, I fully believe anyone can change. Keep your chin up, just start being more aware of when to stop. You admitting to me that you hadn’t looked into the complaint as whole took guts, that to me makes you great, so many would just dig their heals in and not say that at all.
Except there were at least 3 ppl, INCLUDING myself yet you seem to keep forgetting, that said if you were being sincere good for you, and accepted it.
You’re sarcasm was pretty clear after the few posts, however what you did was better than calling someone human trash and hoping the disappeared off the face of the earth which is a disgusting thing to say in my mind.
Im back from a week suspension ya’ll!
