[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 5764162, member: 23977"] I personally feel some people will read what they want to read into a quote then get upset about it. It's actually something they train you not to do in a lot of customer service oriented jobs- if you start reading something with a preconceived idea about what the other person's intent was that's how you'll see it no matter how they meant it. You just won't see it any other way. If you read say "How's your day going?" with the idea that the person asking is being sarcastic or hates you or something you'll read it as if the person was making fun of you even though they were honestly just asking how your day was going. I read the quote as: Spending a lot of time dealing with encounters that don't add anything to the game isn't useful. Don't feel the need to play through them just because you can; Feel free to skip them. Others read it as "if you're playing through these encounters you're not having real fun." Shrug. I generally try to give people the benefit of the doubt as to intent, and usually find most people don't have any kind of hidden meaning to their words. :) [/QUOTE]
