I upset Arnold. I apologised.

Safe Timber Man (?) called me a paedophile because he was intellectually incapable of understanding a simple point of law. No apology, no action taken. Now he's at it again.

Anyone spot the difference?

[Safe_Timber_Man]

I accept your apology on Arnold's behalf.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

I've already apologised to Arnold. He doesn't need a shit-stirrer to answer for him.

What about you apologising for your shitty behaviour?

[Safe_Timber_Man]

I feel your apology to Arnold wasn't sincere.

Although, now might be a good time for Arnold to appear, have a cyber handshake with Malcolm and we can all be BFF's again.

Arnold? Let's have a happy ending.

[Daley Mayle]

Can you two use PMs for such exchanges?

[Safe_Timber_Man]

I'd like that.

Nobody ever PM's me.

[Daley Mayle]

I'd like that.

Nobody ever PM's me.

Ever tried reading How To Win Friends And Influence People? There's a whole section on when making a mistake or insulting someone to either apologise or stop digging the hole you're in.

[Safe_Timber_Man]

I'll put it on my 'to read' list. Although, I'm not digging at all. I'm not the one who keeps bringing it up. I was making light of Arnoldgate by implying it was blown way out of proportion. Malcolm had his head so far up his arse that it went over his head and he had another tantrum.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Yup.

Proves my point, really.


DM - I don't want to do this by PM because I want board members to see what we're dealing with here.

[Safe_Timber_Man]

Just to be completely clear......and I can't believe it even needs to be pointed out to you.....I wasn't really saying you savagely and brutally attacked Arnold, and I wouldn't say you're a merciless evildoer either.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Really?

That's the old bully line - I was just jokin'...


Now, how about that apology?

[Safe_Timber_Man]

Wow. You actually DID think it was serious.....

[Daley Mayle]

You can always apologise to Malcolm as he feels he was insulted. I'm sure you can always come back to me with a witty response to wriggle out of doing that but then you'd be acting the twat by winding him up but I think you're better than that.

[Daley Mayle]

Wow. You actually DID think it was serious.....

We've all done it, that's the problem with message boards, they're two dimensional.

As Malcolm knows full well, I did. Via PM. That's why I find his constant attempt to drag it back up pathetic and why I'm not playing his game.
