  Highly depending on several factors:
  What was the bad thing?
  How personal is it?
  Was it a slip up?
  Did they apologize (recently) or never let it happen again (longer period of time ago)? 
  Was it typical for the time and they dropped that kind of stuff or did they repeat it?
context: Look if  you said the n-word 15 years ago in high school and put it on twitter sure I’ll forgive you because you were young n’ dumb but if you is a grown ass adult and you doing shift like violating kids you don’t deserve forgiveness and deserve everything you have coming >
  
  Depends on what you've done, whether you show regret, and if you've made amends. >
  
  Im not sure if it is unpopular? People tend to forgive, they just don't tend to say it.
  On the opposite people tend to say I don't forgive you, or don't forgive him/her/...
  It the same with saying I am sorry. >
  
  Depends what a person did.
