EPTMuch the same way as Tasteless talking about the situation on a public broadcast doesn't make it a situation that the public is aware of?
good logic...

I think you are not completely understanding the details. Tasteless didn't really offend the guy. He also didn't even give the guys name. It was the OP who brought it into specifics, and like I said, kind of forcing Tasteless to publicly accept the guy's apology. Though, I am sure he would have done it if the guy personally apologized too. I think apologizing through a forum post is impersonal, and devalues the weight of the apology. | ||

There was no reason for it, and in doing so, he added a new variable to the issue between him and Tasteless, which is community opinion. If he would have kept the issue to himself, and approached Tasteless in private to apologize, it would have been much more honest and sincere. It was tasteless who made the thing public. And the guy felt bad and wanted to apologize on the forums. Tasteless decided to answer mention it on-air but he could've also just answered on the forums if he didn't want to. However, what I think is important here is that they both are probably ok with how the things went in the end. I feel it's you who are making a mountain out of a mole hill. There's no drama here anymore, it's over. Everyone is happy except you. | ||

It was a totally anonymous rant by tasteless, no one would have known who it was other than the guy himself, but since he decided to make a post about it, now everyone knows his online identity. What tasteless did was just to defend his friend and hope no insensitive people just randomly walks in and says he can do a better job. That randomguy might be able to but it's not for him to decide whether or not he can. Can you read? he clearly stated that he was using another account just for that post. Why would anyone comment on something without even bothering to read? Fuck. | ||

It is unnecessary to feel sorry for doing something you feel is right to do.I apologize on Tasteless's behalf if he made you feel bad. I was not aware he made such statement during casting. It was just a misunderstanding between a faithful friend and an enthusiastic fan. Very well put man, Thanks for commenting.. its easy to just leave this alone. | ||

He told a story about some guy openly offending a friend and a person that people are fans of in the community. Note, the most important thing here is, he DID NOT give this guys name or screen name. The guy was completely anonymous. If he did call the guy out directly, then I would think that was pretty low, but he didn't. The only reason we know who this guy is, is because he, HIMSELF, said it was. Don't publicly apologize. No one knew it was you. You don't need to apologize to us. You just come off as a drama queen. Apologize to Tasteless and John in private. That is a real apology. Also, no offense, but to all the people who are giving this guy props for saying he was sorry, I don't understand you. You don't get points for doing something you are supposed to do. Especially if you decide to give an attention seeking, long winded one over two forums. You say that you were really nervous and what you said wasn't exactly what you meant. You sound socially awkward and not comfortable in front of people in high stress situations. You would probably be pretty bad at John's job. Next time, I would recommend you go through the proper channels to apply for a job, or at least be a bit more polite and tactful. Don't take any of this as an attack on you, just my opinion. my thoughts exactly, if he was so embarrassed why wouldnt he stay anonymous. lol it makes no sense to post a big public apology attracting more attention to yourself. | ||
