No. Your actual real attempted insults were noted as such, nothing more or less. It seems you have a great deal of trouble admitting certain things, let alone (shock, horror) apologising for them. Your problem, not mine.These are all either directly insulting, or implying something insulting, in a rather unsubtle manner:I have the distinct impression of talking to a wall about this with you.If you insist (as you are) on tying me down and screaming "HA!" when you think you've pinned me into a corner in order to support your point, you're going to be running around quite a bit.But don't disagree and put up a straw man argument claiming that I haven't supported my point.I am familiar with the term, but your use of it in this scenario? Oh, the irony. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> I did not edit it out, but instead regarded it as unworthy of response, as it was both snide and entirely lacking in foundation.There, see? Admitting something needn't be so difficult.No, it didn't.See above.Quite. Please do, by all means. Do whatever you want with it. Or not. Whatever. That goes for anyone else too, whether or not it meshes with their personal take on good and evil, and the rest of it.I have no issue at all with that (the reality of it, or the stating of that reality), and never would have. It was the misuse of absolutes, statements that came across as baseless and arrogant, and certain other related things, that I have taken issue with up to now.. . .With the benefit of hindsight, I realise now that I should have done one of two things: 1) tweaked the feat until it was 'just so', integrated it into the world it's intended for, and posted a request for input from that position; or 2) not posted at all, knowng (as I probably did somewhere in my mind) that something like this would happen.</blockquote>
