So... I am not feeling very well and was hanging around the marketplace Harpering while others were doing stuff. I was catching random commentary in general, advice and trade as usual. So someone was complaining about the price of something that was being offered and then got torn into by the person that was offering said item. This rubbed me the wrong way and said something about if your price is fair you should have no problem with a healthy debate about the price of things right now and that the price of things he was complaining about buying... ie pots and wands had not gone up lately so its a moot point in the discussion. I promptly went back to my harpering and later saw this by the same person.
"<Examine:IID:0x030B00023297CDEC>+3 Manual of Gainful Exercise (Strength +3)<\Examine> boo hoo im a noob for having this"
I said something about +3 tomes being not so rare... i have a few in my bank and was corrected that this one was unbound, I said this. (Trade): [Sheelagh] ah onbound... wow yes you are a ddo god...forgive me... cause +3 tomes are sooo hard to get
(Trade): [Sheelagh] whatever will i do without an unbound tome that I can get rather easily without putting out the plat?
(Trade): [Sheelagh] so its for sale right?
(Trade): [Sheelagh] cause if not you have an inferiority complex... since you have to link it to prove ...hmm something
He had a few responses in between and I think I was harsher than usual but given his tone I don't think it was uncalled for.
Tell): <\Player> tells you, 'i didnt see your last statement. wow your abusive. its a wonder you have any friends bro. you must really enjoy misery. dude rock on that way. be abusive. ill continue to level with my wife while you do.'
My question is while I admit to being grumpier than usual did this seem overly abusive to someone that was abusing somone earlier for questioning the prices he was selling things at and then posting the link of the tome to prove ... i am not sure what... how uber he was? I personally thought he was being both offensive and provocative since he was not offering that tome for sale...was just showing off and yes in my grumpiness I reacted. Just wondering if I was way out of line...or just a tad off...lol.
