If it were coming, I think it would have been here by now.

I know Meat posted an apology on facebook, but he said nothing on facebook (that I saw) that was anywhere near as abusive what he posted here.
So, with that in mind, perhaps (i'm theorising here folks) Meat is a little embarrased to visit the forum right now because of his outburst?
If i'd have said what Meat has said, I know i'd be embarrased by my actions.

I'd have liked to see him apologise to the members here because I know how many feelings were hurt here, and I think it would have gone a long way to winning back peoples respect, but i've seen his facebook page, and I believe him to be sincerley sorry for his actions.

We can either take his facebook apology for what it is, or we can hold the fact he didn't post it here against him.

Me? I'll take the apology.
According to the rules of the forum, we're not allowed to bring issues posted on another site back here, which is fair, IMO. For the same reason, however, I don't think an apology on Facebook is acceptable for comments that were made here- sorry. Besides, some people here might not use Facebook.

I can understand if Meat is embarrassed, but that's no excuse not to apologize, IMO. I think he would have earned many people's respect if he had done so.

As someone said previously, how would Meat feel if this incident were made known to the general public? The cynic in me thinks that maybe he apologized on Facebook because it's much more "public" than this place. If Meat truly considers the people on this site his "friends", then all the more reason he should say something here.
