The guy is a young man, with strong opinions, and I used that opportunity to try to talk to him. After it became clear that he had not interest in a fair discussion, I decided to eviscerate him.

After doing so, I logged back in on the following Monday to find that the powers that be had deleted the thread.
Not frozen it, but rather had it erased from existence


That had not been my intention.
I was having fun. I was bored at work. I was doing something that I do very well.

So I sent a PM to the Op.
I sincerely apologized.
I said I was sorry, and that it was my fault, lesson learned.

Then two weeks go by, I had almost forgotten about it.
Then I get a nasty PM back from the Op.
basically his PM says that he doesn't believe my apology.
Hmmm. Well, I did apologize, and I did mean it.
I wonder though if anyone else involved also apologized to him.
It was also two weeks ago, and Op is still all Agro about it...

What to do, what to do...

tsk tsk. I was given a vacation from here for much less.

But if you apologize to somebody and you know you mean it, and the other person does not accept...then it becomes the other person's problem.
