I am sorry for my offensive comments over the last few days

[logos0516]

 I see my comments have generated a LOT of responses. Let me say two (2) things: one, I apologize for the comments that people found offensive and repugnant in earlier posts. There is no excuse for that type of discussion on my part, and I take full responsibility for my actions. I think this should be a forum where people feel they can gather and calmly, intelligently discuss issues related to not only philosophy, but graduate school in general. Getting overly emotional and needlessly vindictive seriously undermines the prospects for calm, reasonable debate. I regret things I said that others found offensive, and I will not post anything else in a demeaning, offensive, or inflammatory tone again.

I (and I hope most) could careless about your comments, its a stressful time, and this is the internet, people say stuff, whatever. Just stop creating thread after thread...jesus. Relax with this stuff. 

 

I edited to be a bit more understanding, but I stand by my sentiment. Enough with the threads, they seem like blatant appeals for attention.

I've run out of up-votes, but thanks for that post, Logos. I'm sorry it's been such a stressful time, and I hope you get good news soon.

No worries. Extremely stressful time for everyone.

Thanks guys, I appreciate that. I just hope none of my comments get back to any faculty in my department. If they saw them, that would not be good.

A good thing you apologized, then.
