Yesterday I received a PM from a new member of the Forum who apparently joined just so he could send me a message and chew my butt out. He was concerned about my comments to Duke. He said they were, among other things, condescending and rude. Well they were meant to be. I didn't like Duke's comment about "not needing to convince anyone of anything". I thought it was totally unnecessary. This is a forum and I offered information that I had experienced on a personal basis that I thought would be beneficial to Buckspen. Certainly wasn't looking for a fight or an argument. Reply's to my comment immediately pushed what I said under the table. Clearly those comments said, "don't listen to this guy, what he says doesn't matter here." At least that's the way I perceived those comments. And that's a good Segway into this comment which is....I'm a member of this club, I'm just not a member of the click. There are others out there who feel the same as I do. Now all of that said, regardless of whether it's right or not, and I believe I'm right, saying it here in an open forum was wrong.....clearly wrong. Whoever sent me the private message was right! I read his comments and felt about two inches tall. He may never know it but I'm grateful for the ass chewing.....hope I can learn from it! So that said I want to apologize to Duke and ask his forgiveness and I want to apologize to all the RKCC members and Forum members who were offended by what I said.
