The point is that you've been going back and forth for at least 4 pages here, and a few more in the CIJS thread a few months ago. Wyzas still maintains that he doesn't regret saying what he said. Everyone's made their point and showed whatever they believe in and think. Anything more you say would just be childish, at this point.
Four pages is worth it if causes people to stop and think before they post. I think dialogue should be kept open if only to bring awareness of the assholishness of others to light. You know, to serve as a warning. Besides - I know he doesn't care. Kit certainly doesn't care, as evidenced by his posts here. But if one person can see where what was done was wrong, then my posts were worth it. I'm okay with that.
Quote:I should have been more clearer in my previous post. I meant to say 'he was trying to do something he thought was positive.' Added the italic part. Whether you think what he was trying to do (the way I see it, helping her 'move on'?) was positive or not, whether it had the intended effect or not, etc etc is a completely different point. Also, the 'too soon' is in line with his original intention.
Again, this is all based off of his claims in this thread. If he's just saying it was to help her move on when in reality he actually was doing it out of malice, then yeah, that's pretty damn low. I just don't think that's what happened.
PS: I'm not trying to justify anything he's said. I agree with you, it was completely inappropriate. Why he thought it was appropriate is beyond me.
Thank you for the clarification. I think he can spin it any way he wants to at this point. And I honestly don't see how anyone, even him, can see where what was said was even remotely helpful. It just boggles my mind that someone considers those words "helpful". It won't change the fact that it was still a shitty thing to say and it's out there for all the interwebz to see.
