[QUOTE="WalterKovacs, post: 4553692, member: 63763"] ACTUALLY, I am responding to him. I am explaining how what he wrote can be seen as aggressive. I am saying that some people will interpret "It is what it is" as being a "I'm sorry you can't see it, but 4e is a supers game whether you see it or not". I am not saying he's arrogant. I'm saying that he is coming off that way to some. Nature of the beast when it comes to the internet ... you can't exactly get all the subtlety of someone's tone. His "I didn't mean to be aggressive" seemed to be asking why people were responding as if he was. I was explaining why people may be interpreting his post that way. I did not mean to put words in his mouth. But most people on online forums will read a bit more into people's posts than what is there ... that may make people jump to conclusions. Someone claiming they can't see how their post would be interpreted that way deserves to have someone explain why that may be ... it allows them to clarify their opinion and ultimately cut the tension in the long run. YMMV IMHO and other defusing addendums. [/QUOTE]
