I don't think anyone condones what he did, including myself, but an apology is an apology. We've all done stuff in the heat of the moment that we regretted seconds later, this time it just happened to be in the heat of a large argument.
Even in the heat of an arguement, some things are never said.

This is one of them.

True we do say things in the heat of the moment but when it over steps the mark of morality then there is no amount of apology that could amend it. I wouldn't even wish what was said to robbo on my worst enemy. Especially seeing what my best friend which is like a brother to me going through his battle with leukemia at this moment in time.

He cant go on here because of the way he has already behaved himself and spoken to people, and rightly so. Sounds an awful lot like your sticking up for him...ive said things in the heat of the moment before but that just takes the biscuit really......

Ok, settle down. Conveying the message is not a crime, picking a side is not a crime. I may not agree with your opinion but I'll defend to the death your right to have one. ......

I now see why people got pissed at me for using text speak a copple years back!

Back on topic, i think this guy really needs to either make face to face or phone apoligy, although it might be face and pile of mush after saying what he said :p

I have just received a message that had the following letter attached :-

My last comments on this matter forever!!! This will go up on p8baller when I can get back on there but no time like the present to get things back on track. The following is extended to any members of Talk Paintball and UKS who was offended by it and would state at this point I know people personally affected by cancer and is not nice to see them go through it.
A full and unreserved apology
I whole heartedly retract the comments made to and about Robbo. This is not my normal self but instead a rather enraged one who let the sense of right and good go out of the window and replace it with anger and rage. Those of you who know me will know I am a man that would not normally hurt a fly let alone wish a painful death on them.
I hope Robbo you will accept this apology as well as the other members of the community that you run who I have offended with my comments. The comments where all my own work and I was not put up to it by anyone and do not wish what I said on anyone
I would like us all play the game we love in the style we like and leave the dirty politics to Labour & the Conservative parties
Peace

I reserve the right to either accept or not accept his apology and some people might well suggest I do accept it in favour of the wider perspective but I wonder if these people who might condone an acceptance would feel the same if it were them or one of their families who'd been attacked with a phrase such as 'wishing they would die' ..... I might be wrong here which is always a strong possibility when I'm angry but I will not accept any apology for a comment such as the one he made .... it gives me no consolation whatsoever to read his attack and then an hour or so later receive an apology; I'm afriad things don't work like that in my world.
It's like someone calling another person a paedophile and then apologising afterwards .. I'm afraid the apology just don't cut it .. not even close.

Shylock failed .. I won't !

Anybody can now post with regard to this point and you have my word I won't delete anything if it runs contra to what I have just said.
I will however reserve the right to delete any poster who has just registered today or yesterday for obvoius reasons.
