It's come to my attention I said something offensive IC to another player while questing; obviously that person's anonymous, but I just wanted to say I earnestly misunderstood the word I was using in an effort to be humorous and didn't mean (and would never aim) to make anyone uncomfortable.
I've been offended a couple times in my decade or so on EfU, so I do know what that's like and it sucks. We can all be wrong sometimes and I think accountability's a good thing.
If that player happens to read this, you have my apologies.
