    You have failed to own up to every blunder you made. I doubt you'll recognize your post as one.

    I do these apology threads for the cons and I thought this stupidity of mine towards you deserved the same level of treatment



    You the man dude


    my face is in the dirt


    thank you for the whooping

    In the end your asskicking will make me a better person and a more informed one at that

    Sorry dude !

    I offered this gif in response to your comment that she always acknowledges her mistakes. That's just not true.

    Lots of people on this board have admitted they were wrong about something. It doesn't take starting a thread to acknowledge a mistake.

    You may not agree with me here but if you'll endulge me follow along my scenario.

    Imagine I start a thread saying "Superfreak Kicked My Ass With Facts"

    I of course don't actually state what the facts were or how I was wrong and he corrected me but I start the thread nonetheless.

    Then posters like Flash, LR, Darth etc. all join in and tell me how great I am and how much integrity I have for saying Superfreak corrected me on something. And somebody else says Cawacko is great because he always admits when he's wrong.

    My guess is you would probably be rolling your eyes while reading such a thread. Not that different than this.

    I read the thread where Mott corrected her. Maybe she just forgot to link up. If you guys were really interested in the thread, not just bashing evince, you could search Mott's posts from yesterday.

    I know people will acknowledge their errors inside a thread and am not criticizing that. You do it, I do it. But IMO it's a lot more ballsy to start an actual thread dissing yourself in the title where everyone can read it.

    Again IMO... this thread shows that people really don't care about the apology, they're just using it as another opportunity to bash evince. You and I have been down this road before and are not going to change each other's opinions but I'll say it once more for the others... if you don't like what evince posts then put her on your ignore list already.

    No disrespect to my Ohio brotheren Mott but I'm not looking through every thread posted yesterday to try and find her conversation with Mott.

    If I started a thread saying Superfreak schooled me when you be rushing in to say how great I was and singing the praises of my integrity? Probably not nor would you be expected to. And let's be honest, this whole board and politics is tribalism and a team sport. It just is. So saying someone on your own team taught you something isn't really going out on a limb. Acknowledging someone on the "other side" schooled you takes a whole lot more "guts" and integrity.

    There are zero people who do that.

    I have seen Evince make this kinds of threads many times over the history of this board.

    And to me, the most impressive thing is not only her manner of admitting the mistake but expressing humility, remorse, and a capacity to learn from the mistake.

    You know who I have not seen express the slightest remorse or admission of a catastrophic blunder for supporting the Iraq War Disaster?

    Yep, that's right....99.999999 percent of conservative posters on jpp dot com

    Well, here's a tip for the future... You click on someone's name (Mott) - view profile - find latest started threads. It narrows the searching a lot.

    I get your point about SF v. Mott. I might sing your praises if you were apologizing about a better quality poster than SF.

    Thank you for the tip but did she state it was a thread Mott started?
