To whom it may concern, and I assume it is the entire forum, I got an email from our friend Burke, and I think that was great of him:
To those whom it may concern:

I (Michael Burke) was OBVIOUSLY in the wrong over these past few days. No one is to say anything to the opposite and believe it. I know this, you know this. All of the things I said were OBVIOUSLY said in jest. Those who
know me know that I am not a racist, it is relatively evident actually.

I am half jewish anyway, and my father is black. (the first is true, the second, not) If I said some things that offended you, good, some of you on there needed it. So, as for my apology, yes, I do apologise, I was in the wrong.

BUT, there are those out there who were also in the wrong, and I think that that issue is the one that needs to be dealt with. Everyone who has seen what my posts are about know I am a joker. I meant nothing personal to anyone. Those who know me, and know me well, know this. Hell, ask anyone, anyone will tell you that I am a pretty easy going character, but I am like a snake, I only attack when necessary. I only go out and **** with people when they have it coming, or they push me beyond my limits.

So:
Sorry to Azzurri7, you are still my boy.
Sorry to Martin, you are the man.
Sorry to Graham, I love asian women.
Sorry to Paul, I have lost close friends in the heat of battle, and I know what it is like. i can only offer my views as one of those who was not there beside of him when he passed though.
Sorry to CHX, you are my main man, African. I meant none of those racial
slurs.

Thos who I am still cool with:
Vinny
Andy
Nick
DanBlack
Chx
Jeeks
Fabi

And Emma, blandie, Jamie, if you out there, **** you too.

Danke,

D. Michael "Banjo Boy" Bürke III

P.S. - Have a nice day.

Oh purleez...

Im sorry.... Piss off

Theres no excuse for the crap he came out with and some pathetic half arsed apology dont mean shit.

Even then he cant apologise with dignity he has to still get a dig at people and continue lieing on every front.

Only attacks when necessary.... bullshit... hes been digging away at certain people for no reason for along time.

He thought he was so clever but got sucked in with unbeleivable ease.... He then bullshits how he wants to get banned , yet since hes been banned his names been in the user list allmost constantly and comes back with his bullshit apologies.

Good riddance to the most dispicable peice of shit this forum has ever had

Completely agree. I seem to be agreeing with Paul a lot these days.

Well, at least he gave an apology.

Good for him.

pretty much.. and that's only half of it. Martin cleaned up a lot of the mess he made before he was eventually banned

Hey, if he was the ULTIMATE piece of crap some people make him out to be on here; he would never have taken the time out to type up that apology. Everyone gets a little crazy now and then..I believe we saw quite an understatement of that on Burke's part over his last few days here, but at least he's 'sort of' cleared the air.

By the way, I'm not saying he's redeemed himself or anything else to that extreme..I'm just pointing out that now he's come to his senses, even he sees the HUGE error of his ways.

I think Burke knew what he was doing all along. Whether he meant the things he said or not, he knew very well that the things he said could absolutely not be tolerated on this forum.

People always say "don't take this place so seriously, it's just an internet forum", and of course that's true, but everyone here is representing themselves, whether they're putting on a mask or being completely open.

Everyone has a responsibility to keep a civil tongue in their head, whether they're restraining themselves from making derogatory comments or, like most of us (presumably), don't get the urge to spill the kind of crap that Burke wrote to get himself banned.

I'd even go so far as to say that this was all calculated; I'm not accusing Burke of not making a genuine apology, but it's all too simple for Burke to get himself banned, then just write a point-form list of the people he's offended to try and redeem himself to a degree.

He wrote that for the attention and probably for the shots he took at us. Perhaps with something like this he can win over some people again and they can crave for him to come back. So predictable.

Shadowfax, Burke send an apology, we all make mistakes, and YOU know very well that Burke is not racist and I'll keep on tell you this, "he didn't mean what he said". Burke is really a great guy, althought we only talked few times, but it shows he's a great guy with great Personality.

Now Zlatan, I know you wanted Burke to be banned but ffs don't exaggerrate that he deserve it and bla bla, we all know he did wrong but he's not the Person YOU image him.
