Did a total retard move with a board member. Didn't hurt or leave a mark, just thought he was someone else and told him I could not help him on numerous PM's until I figured out he was someone else asking for help on a I-4 similar to what I have. I had him confused with a I-6 turbo in the UK.

Dumb move so I thought I would do a public appology. He knows who he is...

Without knowing the specifics of that situation, or who the other person is, I say don't beat yourself up about it. Some people are on the boards a LOT, others not so much. Sometimes the "on a LOT" folks sort of assume that the "not so much" people are familiar with them (and aren't busy with 1000's of other "real life" things). So, misunderstandings do happen.

Nope it's all good. I'm not beating myself up. I'm just cracking a joke on myself. I don't walk around with a stick up my butt and when I make a small mistake like not even knowing who you are when I've been working on a project with you for a while, I'm not to good to crack a joke on myself to say "He man sorry about those 3 PM's I sent basicaly saying I can't help you I really don't know who you are, although they were stated nicer then that...

Jeez I'm glad somebody cleared this up. I saw the header and thought....Holy crap! what have I done this time!

Wow - yeah it was a good party.

And hey, what is with "clear" anyway?

I once hounded a guy for a ride in his e28 535is, then he called me and I thought he was someone else who had been interrupting me for days and I went off on him only to pause mid sentence, realize he was not the offender and do a complete 180 degree turn from a-hole to Mr Nice Guy. I felt like an ass, he still gave me a ride.
