Personally, I don't think any apology was needed from Richard, but I respect the fact that he did.
I hate to be redundant, but like I wrote, the original thread was dead; it became a non-issue that was just between David and Richard. Why did David have to revive it? Why? There was no reason to revive it. If I was in Richard's shoes I would have reacted to David's comment, too. |

We all have our moments but I have to agree with the others who have replied to this. Richard, when you said you were done with that thread earlier, you continued to pile on David while saying you were going to be the grown up in the situation.
Now again, you seem to be doing the same thing while still trying to plead your case for why you were right. I have no disrespect for either of you but if either or both of you really wanted to act like grown ups, you might try calling each other and apologizing to each other and work it out like men instead of battling on a message board. Just a suggestion. I didn't vote in the poll, mainly because there was not an option for two people who had a disagreement to work it out. That would be my vote. I honestly don't mean any disrespect to either of you, it just seems like it is time to step back and think about this. Someone always has to be the bigger person in a disagreement to actually start moving forward. IMO, it's not truly being the bigger person by saying you are going to be the bigger person and then continuing to state your case as to why you are right and the other person is wrong. One of the things I have always enjoyed about this board is there is usually not too much of the typical message board behavior of putting others down,making people feel silly for a difference of opinion, or some of the other childish things you usually see on other boards, here's a vote for us getting back to that.

I to don't know either of you and no disrespect also but reading the apology it still almost sounds like your still attacking the guy by using his name over and over. Now the thread is going to start all over again with people siding with you guys again. Be done with it. keith janosky

Chris,
I appreciate your thoughts on the matter but this quote of yours is something I don't understand: "Richard, when you said you were done with that thread earlier, you continued to pile on David while saying you were going to be the grown up in the situation." Chris, you specifically refer to me as piling on David. If you want to consider my apology here to be piling on then you are certainly entitled to your opinion. But the only post I made in that initial long thread after I said I would no longer keep up the arguing was to show a Babe Ruth autograph in quotes, when that question came up on the thread. As to the thread with the poll,,, I made posts about Willie Mays, Brooks Robinson and card show experiences with them and a COA about Mantle autographs where I admittedly made an error. Unless I have missed something I cannot find one post in those two threads where I "piled on" David after I said I would stop.

Richard apologized so I think it is fair to accept it.

These recent threads are about to reduce me to begging: Can we please separate this forum into TWO separate forums, so the vintage memorabilia collectors can avoid this tripe?
1) vintage memorabilia (non-COA stuff) 2) autographs and game-used

When the autograph stuff really started to take over this side of the board we had more than a few non-auto memorabilia collectors mention that they'd like to see a split..I know that a few of those members have nearly stopped participating in this forum and honestly as a non-auto collector myself I've found myself much less interested in what's going on over here and I'm a moderator!! I hate to see what's happened recently as this side has almost always been fairly peaceful..The apology above was just ridiculous IMO. Some people love the drama though.

I am a huge fan of Richard's and believe he was justified in everything he did. But, i have to agree that is the worst apology i've ever seen.but I don't blame him for that either.
