An apology to Tekkoshocon

[MGSsuperfan]

I fell really bad about the Org. XIII panel. Some people got offended, and heartbroken. it was a failure at the least. if anyone has anything to say, good things, or bad things, please post them. i need to know how many people were hurt, or actually somehow, enjoyed it. i fell REALLY awful, and am sorry to Tekkoshocon, Pittsburgh, the audience, and the panelists.

Oh, jeez. Your apology makes me sad. I didn't even see it, though. What was so bad about it?

I would also like to appologize to everyone who were disappointed in this panel. If you would like to read my oppionon on how the panel was its here http://www.tekkoshocon.org/forum/index.php?topic=12544.270 i think it sums up what went wrong and why pretty well.

Again sorry about everything that went wrong, and sorry to everyone that was hurt or let down by this panel.

Same.  I don't even know what Organization VIII is; but, I did look through the other thread and... well, I just this apology will be accepted. :(  I'm surprised, I didn't experience anything bad at Tekkoshocon this year.  I hope things clear up for y'all.

It didn't really sum anything up for me.  What happened?O_o

Questions were being asked that were over 18, and some of our members didnt know that they shouldn't have answered.(mostly because they were just picked out of the audience ). Only one person was offended, but thats still 1 too many.

I wish I would have seen it and I did hear wat happened and i dont think it was that bad :/ some people r just too uptight I really think you should do this again and just make it PG-13 because ppl throw hissy fits lol

At Tekko Improvs, I made a disclaimer of sorts that essentially said "we're going to try to keep it clean, but we're only human and funny sometimes lends itself to being blue."  Perhaps you (and others) can use that in the future.

THIS.

If you guys are able to do it again next year, make sure there's a disclaimer, even if it's just to say "While Kingdom Hearts bears the Disney name and all efforts will be made to keep things at a PG-13 rating, some topics covered may not be suitable for all audiences"!!! That way, should something slip here or there (so long as you watch yourselves and don't let it get out of control), you've said beforehand that there is a possibility of it and thereby absolved yourselves of being blamed because someone didn't know.

First, I made it clear that the panel was supposed to be PG13 and I was told it would stay that way.  Second, it was at a time of day when kids are more prevalent at the convention.  Third, Improvs is scheduled at night to try to minimalize the problems that this panel had.  It was not entirely the fault of the people that apped the panel that this happened, which I understand.  I had a talk with all of the panelists involved. 

Please realize that while some people might want to throw a little hentai/yaoi/yuri into things because that is how they feel about the topics, it's not appropriate for all fans.  There are young fans of Org XIII too.  Just because they are young doesn't mean they should be left out of the fandom.  Kingdom Hearts is a game targeted at all ages.  Please understand that there are going to be younger fans and unless you stamp an age limit on the panel from the beginning, this might happen again.
