reguile sort of apology

<reguile> I don't have much time to say this, and I'm sure you'll be tempted to blow this off, but I want to say something.  The gist of it is that I want to say that in all my postings I didn't really mean to insult, harm, or otherwise make you feel bad.  I realize it may have appeared as such, or I may have jokingly stated something along the lines of that those things are my intent.  I tend to be very blunt in the way I talk and argue, and
<reguile> that bluntness has extended to me not really considering the impact it has on the way a person feels thanks to what I say.  As well, I have consistently viewed comments and so on as a sort of completition, and haven't ever stopped during my commenting and responding to consider that a person stating that something hurts them, or acting like that, may be a genuine expression of pain rather than an intent to debunk through emotion.  I
<reguile> am sorry if that behavior, those assumptions, resulted in you feeling attacked.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> Well. Thank you for that.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> You really did attack me. A lot. You're one of the reasons why I stopped being active on the community for a while. You're one of the single reasons why people are afraid to post their opinions on the sub.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> So I get that you didn't mean it, but you really burned a lot of people.
<reguile> Oh, I'm not looking to make excuses.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> You killed a lot of content that could have been useful.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> My personal feeling aside, just sayin. You did a lot of damage.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> Not trying to rub salt into it, but I am just trying to see if you know the full extent of what happened.
<reguile> There are lines to be drawn on that sort of thing, and in these cases it is my decision on where to draw them.  I do not know what the full extent you are talking about, but I do know I've acted the way I've talked about in that first post often, and that's effected many.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> Do you regret doing it?
<reguile> I have to go, though, no internet shortly, contact me tomorrow if you are interested in further conversation.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> Sure.
<reguile> I do not know, honestly, what I do or do not regret.
<reguile> and cya
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> You're smart, reguile, and I respct that at least.
<Nycto{Siouxsie}> cya.
