The damage is already done. "I'm sorry (but I was still right!)" is the kind of apology I would expect to hear from a child. If you're sorry, then make it right and undo the harm that you did. Otherwise, just shut-up, you're not sincere.

He didn't say he was sorry. He just said he will stop.

Exactly my point. He's sorry that he got called out, nothing more.

Exactly my point. He's sorry that he got called out, nothing more.

So? Isn't the most important thing that he's stopping?

Has this page been changed since it was posted? Perhaps I'm missing it, but I don't see anything that indicates that he's giving up.

It's showing as the current version for me, but here's the permalink: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Christopher_M...

I repeat myself, but: "The damage is already done."
