Aw. He's offered to help out the Child's Play charity. So sweet. Even though Gabe is a big bully, he's willing to help out with anything to help his charity. Sniff Sniff

ROFLMAO. He actually is showing decency here by speaking up for the guys that make the attachment and asking people not to blame them for his actions. I'll give him that much. This is the first real time he's shown a thought for someone else.
He lost a friend in Kotkin. Kotkin won't even talk to him anymore and they were friends.

s'called guilt. he has to live with it, just as we have to live with the fact WE MADE HIM A BIT DEPRESSED.

He's dumb, but he's not pure evil. At least he does a few things right.

To be honest I appreciate and respect the apology...he really got preeeeetty damn close to a real apology enough times that I think we can give the point...and I respect the way he's closing out his relationship with the Avenger guys...but at this point I'm just not that invested in the outrage anymore. I'm in it for the circus.
Fortunately, he delivered on that front, too.

Well if he responded to my customers that way I'd fire him and not be friendly with him right now too. It was admirable of him to speak up for the company and say they don't deserve crap because of what he did.

Yup same here. I can say if he had showed the humility he showed right there he wouldn't have been in near the shithole he's in now.

that controller add on is totally pimp. it makes him awesome at madden.
although he has no achievements in 2012... but i'm sure that's just because he's a bit depressed.
hey, this horse is dead? fucking horse. dying.
*kicks the shit out of the horse*

Ok their chat is going over a line there. Oh it's been one big circle jerk the whole hour. That's just being rude. I think they did hit him with some tough questions. Granted those questions came from their chat but they did hit him with some tough ones.

Yeah I closed it some 10 min ago when they asked for the third time an audience question about the sincerity of his apology

Here comes the viewer calls now. This will be interesting.

Well he might have been a douche and a twat etc but it seems like he is learning why what he did was wrong and does seem sorry for what he did. He goes back sometimes to blaming Mike for all this (which really he should blame Dave if any for emailing the chain to everyone) but yeah. He seems sorry and he's actually promoting the controller addon and company even though he doesn't need to so that's nice.

yeah. agreed. he's sorry he got caught. we know he'd done this to other customers before.
he keeps painting himself as the customer in the restaurant. the customer in the bar. the customer dealing with microsoft.

Yup. I think he has finally earned a break. I really do think attacks should stop now. He's a douchebag still but he did finally show a very very slim shred of humanity and sorrow finally.

I think he's actually trying to sincerely apologize at this point. He's just never had to do it before and he isn't very bright, so it's easy for him to get sidetracked and start pointing fingers again.

he's very sorry, but only because the internet fucked him. he hasn't called the police about any threats. he hasn't sued penny arcade but if he knew he'd get 5 million dollars he would. he knows html AND html 5. his gamertag is theangrydude and he wants you to send him a message. he wishes he hadn't fucked up the rep of a great product. he won't do it again.
but only because Mike schooled him.
i think he's genuinely sorry, but i think it's only because the internet MADE him genuinely sorry.
