    Hi Bryan, I come from a long line of shoe-eaters :D, so maybe this will help. Certain things will give offense / sound insincere despite the speaker's intentions.

    Example:
    1. Please do X.
    2. Please do X!
    3. Please do X!!!! <---- sounds demanding & desperate.

    Example:
    1. "I'm sorry I was offensive."
    2. "I'm sorry if I was offensive."
    3. "I'm sorry you were offended."

    #2 sounds insincere. Sounds like the speaker doesn't know what he's apologizing for & is "going thru the motions"

    #3 sounds like the speaker is blaming the other person.

    Just semantics? Maybe, but knowing them also helps with bosses & SOs :D

    The current API provided by tapatalk will not function at all. I have a support ticket open with them, and we are working through the issue.... just an update.
