You were one of two people I asked a question to or made a comment about not including MoI. Yours was short and sweet and wasn't hostile at all. Again, you are being overly defensive and I can't for the world figure out why. Pointing out something and asking a question is not being aggressive. I clearly said I was looking towards Minimum. So why do you think you're so special today instead?
I'm special every day. I have no idea what you are talking about. If you are referring to me saying that about Edd, your question/statement to me was silly and complete fluff. As I pointed out to you the answer to the question was in my responses if you had read. You argued with Edd for the old gods know what yesterday, and since you were also acting strangely aggressive with me yesterday and asked me a question to look busy today I can see where your lazer focus will probably go and will do what I can to head it off. It's not something I will put up with or continue with you when it does nothing whatsoever to forward the game and is nothing but a distraction.
And touche, for once, I'd like to see you not reacting to stuff just to look busy, argue with someone unnecessarily, or explain why you're not scum. Also, you might note, I didn't call you hostile. I said that you were being unnecessarily aggressive and melodramatic and were painting something as other than what it obviously was. You might want to look those words up in a dictionary.
I get it, you want to be a badass...you want to show your aggressive and you don't care about your image. Maybe you think that it will make you look innocent. Maybe you think that's how you're supposed to act, but it's coming off quite unnaturally. What it's resulting in is you just looking busy. And, noted, your condescension is soooo cute.
I'm not being over-defensive at all. I don't have to be. I see you being busy for the sake of being busy. Now maybe you don't know what you should comment on or how, and I'm making allowances for that, so it might not be alignment indicative, but it doesn't mean I'm not going to point it out.
And note, you didn't merely point out something and ask a question. You mischaracterized something went "Oh punch in the gut blah blah blah...I don't like it. Pointless Question". The point of it is that if you would have actually read what I wrote, there would be absolutely no reason for you to ask me the question you did or go melodramatic about it. The fact that you don't even recognize that is pretty worrisome.

My picking up on that with SnowStorm was in addition to other things I found suspicious about him, which I told him about in that post, and my entire conversation with him was designed to get a read on him.
This is an overdrawn explanation for a simple observation I made.
I do not care that you questioned him about other things. It's not even relevant to this conversation. I'm pointing out how you're essentially doing the same thing you pointed out Snow of being scummy for. Can I believe that your
post 333 was trying to scope out a reaction from Snow? Definitely. But you did pick up on it and I do think you were pointing it out as scummy - you also made a distinction between him doing it and
you
doing it.
Good we're on the same page then. I couldn't care less that you "DON'T LIKE" that I forgot to remove a vote I MADE CLEAR WAS A REACTION VOTE IN THE FIRST PLACE THAT I WAS GOING TO REMOVE. I cleared up for you the error of your ways in comparing that to what I said to Snowstorm. But, if you had bothered to read and process what I wrote, you would not have made the error in the first place. You really are cute, but you are either misreading or mischaracterizing two issues. Whether you are doing it deliberately or just are unable to understand the distinction, I'm not sure.
But, LOFL, did you actually just state that my actual words to Snowstorm were not relevant to this conversation. Wait. I'm um...okay. You do remember that you were the one who compared what I did to what I said to Snowstorm. You are, right? I mean I'm not reading the wrong thread am I? I want you to think on that one. You do know what context is right? You do know what the actual words stated versus your misconstrued image is right? Yes, you're right I did compare what he did to what I do...and your point is what exactly?
Okay so, now that you've refreshed your memory on what SnowStorm did and what I said to him, why don't you read the context around me voting for Benmage and tell me what is the punch-in-the-gut reminder of the SnowStorm issue and you don't like it :frown I'm a badass:. Because if you can't see the difference, and if you can't see why I think you're just commenting on it to distort and look busy, then I don't know what to tell you.
Did you miss the part where I said it was a reaction vote that I would remove when I got home? Please say yes. Because it would make so much more sense if you just admitted you didn't read.
You did not make a simple observation. A simple observation would look like this..."Hey Lyanna, I saw that you voted for Benmage for a reaction, you said you'd remove it but haven't and posted since. What's up with that?" To which, I would have simply removed it after saying that I forgot.
You did not do that. Re-read what I wrote to Benmage, then read your "simple observation" and really stand by what you're saying here.

Am I scum for forgetting to remove a vote I made clear was only a reaction vote in the first place? Why are you concerned about what I got out of my interaction with Benmage?
To get a reaction out of you, of course.
Are you going to answer my question about Benmage properly now without the fluff? Did it help or what?
So, you mischaracterized an action by comparing it to something it wasn't like and asked a pointless question that would have been answered if you had actually read what I wrote to get a reaction out of me. That's...really stupid.
Since you're apparently reading-challenged, I'll post what I ALREADY posted:
Lyanna wrote:Since I obviously put him in my list of feeling relatively good about AFTER our conversation, my questioning helped my relatively good feelings.
And note: I'm not debating this anymore unless you actually read and process what I wrote. I will not get into some argument with you so you can spout inanities at me like you did Edd yesterday. That is nothing but a distraction that does nothing but help scum. I want to see you actually scum hunting today, and not just trying to look busy by arguing with people you will make no headway with. I don't buy into the "no scum would behave that way" nonsense that some others do. I've seen scum employ your very tactic in hopes of not looking like scum.
