Ok, I understand what you mean. Thanks for being considerate, I usually don't express my opinion in these discussions, hopefully I didn't come across very rudely.

Understandable. Hope I didn't come off as rude there, I didn't mean to.

My apologies if I came across as if I was shooting down the opinions here.

Thanks for the polite response and my apologies for being a bit of a dick in choosing those words. And yes, I agree with the points you made.

I didn't mean to be rude, I enjoy the discourse. Thanks for engaging.

My bad, I apologize if it was rude, it just came across like that to me.

Well, I appreciate your saying so. I apologise for my part in this discussion going off the rails.

My apologies. I understand and think you make a very good point.

True. I seemed to have missed that and came off a tad rude doing so. Part of my opinion is now in the mix. :-)

Alright. Fair enough. Obviously I was not able to communicate my point in a way that was inoffensive. I apologise for that.

I get you. I'm sorry that I got a bit defensive, and I didn't mean to detract from your point.

The way that I phrased my comment was a little rude. I apologize. I was meaning to agree with the parent poster, but in doing so I was uncharitable with my interpretation of your comment. I shouldn't have taken such a dismissive attitude, that doesn't really help anything.

All good! I hope my respectful disagreement came across that way (and not combative). I appreciate this exchange.

I would agree, yes.

I certainly didn't intend to presume to speak for you, apologies if I was overbearing.


Fair enough - I see what you are saying. Sorry for my accidentaly condescending reply.

My last statement was rude. Please accept my apologies.

Please, no need to apologize. People have really strong opinions about this, as I'm sure you know, and I'm not sure yet how to comment on it in a helpful way.

Blerg. Then also an apology. You did say that your post was in your _opinion_. I chose to engage. You were kind enough to respond and expand on your opinion. If I missed that and used a needlessly harsh tone then please know that was not my intent. At least not originally.

I'm sorry for whatever caused you to feel the need to respond this rudely to the discussion, but I was talking about myself in my comment, not you.

Thanks. I guess I'm trying to give some sort of indication that I know what I'm talking about. Too many people have opinions without any factual basis to make them on. I'll try to be more toned down in the future.
