When you see someone apologize for something because they "didn't know" or "didn't understand" or "didn't think they did anything wrong" then continue to repeat the behaviors for which they apologize do you tend to just ignore the apologies as insincere, see the individual as a "troublemaker" feigning innocence or react in a different way?

You see the person for what they are; a liar.

It depends... if it is a teen, depending on the behavior, I will respectfully let them know exactly what they are doing and what they instead need to do. (Boys town)

I don't completely understand in what context you are seeing this... but if I perceive an apology is insincere, I will disengage.

So why start a passive aggressive thread about it? Simply reply directly to that person. 

But here all the 'mean girls' will get away with piling on like usual because no one actually 'named' the poster they will come here to bash.

It just gets more childish here all the time.

Whoa. Is this about something that went on HERE? If so, then this thread is childish beyond belief. I took the question at face value and nothing more.

This place... I swear.

Depends who it is. Sometimes saying something isn't worth the reaction you know you'lll get when dealing with someone who might be defensive and/or insincere. Sometimes it's worth outting the person.

Ignore the poster in the future.

What, exactly, do you find passive aggressive about my question and why are you bringing in posters?

Maybe I should start a "passive aggressive" thread about why so many think every post is about another poster.
