I greatly appreciate this, though I completely understand. Under pressure, some terrible things can come out of our mouths. Perhaps my comfort with my own sexuality was what kept me from being offended, but I wasn't too bothered by it. Hopefully the other gays in the community can be as understanding :) But the fact that you recognized it immediately and without prompting seconds after you said it shows you didn't intend to use a word like that, so I know this is sincere. Mistakes will be made, but life will go on :)

Im not sure what was said but the fact that you recognized what you said was hurtful and can apologize for it shows great character. Good on you.

They can make you feel like shit when they happen, but I understand mistakes do happen. You instantly realized that was unacceptable and then immediately owned up to it. You've handled it as well as you could possibly be expected, so apology accepted.

While what you said was terrible, it's understandable slips ups happen, I'd be lying if I said I've never had that word or similar others slip out despite that fact that I despise them. The good thing is you were able to man up, admit the fuck up, and apologize. Many others associated with our hobby would not, or worse yet, would use words such as that out of spitefulness.

Apology accepted.

What did he even say? Either way I am cool with whatever he said, people make mistakes and say things they normally wouldn't when caught up in the moment. I've fucked up and said widely inappropriate things at home and in the workplace. Shit happens.

Glad we can move past this. The video as a whole was one of the greatest moments in GB history. I hope that an under one second piece of audio doesn't keep it from getting archived.

I think everyone here can agree that Ryan didn't do anything out of malicious intent, and everyone has outbursts where they say regrettable things.

Ryan, I don't know you personally, but from what I've heard on the podcast, you seem to be a stand up guy. We all say stupid things once in a while. We're human.

In the other thread I originally stated that I didn't want the word censored, but after reading Ryan's post I've had a change of heart. He's really tore up over this, and if I was in his position I'd want to erase it from my life too.

Regardless of what was said we all love Ryan unconditionally.

Brad was asking for it.... Always stealing those shields...

But in all seriousness, no worries. I don't think any less of you nor GB. Sometimes when you're in the heat of the moment, shit just happens. It's happened to all of us.

I'm also totally curious about what he could have said that could warrant censorship on Giantbomb. Probably that other 'f-word'? Who knows. Maybe it'll pop up on YouTube. Anyway, you're still cool in my book, Ryan.

Haha, I've never been so confused with my own feelings. I wanted to post something like "hey, Ryan, it's cool. In fact, I think you're making way too big a deal out of this," and then I see this completely bizarre comment and I'm just like... maybe I should log off the internet for the night?

You have proven that this isn't your usual behaviour by instantly apologizing on stream without having been asked, which in my opinion was enough and I already had forgotten minutes later. You had a dirty mouth fart on the air. The rest of the story is just the internet beeing the internet as usual.

Ryan, as many times as you say "fuck" in a day, it would be childish to think you'd never stammer the word that you did. Happens to people all the time. At least you owned up to it.

I argue with people all the time how words like that (among others) are harmful and how using them all the time is bad. However acknowledging what one says and owning up to it is all that matters. I would be lying if I said I never used the word in a similar context. Accidently or on purpose.

Is it weird that I respect Ryan more now? Like, I don't condone the word or anything, but him manning the hell up about the slip up really struck a cord with me.

Ryan : don't let the internet idiots get you down. Your fans will move on, you should do the same.

Apology accepted Ryan. You quickly realized your action and owned up to it. And like everyone else is saying here, we've all said stupid stuff in the heat of the moment.

To be honest... I laughed. Does that make me a horrible person? Probably.. but it was said in the heat of the moment, and at a game that was tearing the edges of your sanity. The reason i was watching the stream was just waiting for a moment like that. I honestly was expecting brad to snap first, but hey, you proved you are human and make mistakes. Duder, it was an amazing show, and being premium content it made me even happier I am a subscriber. Great show Ryan, and this little gaff was just an amusing bump in the road.

It's OK. I think he's a Shoemaker, and it's OK to use that word if you're a Shoemaker.
