Common Courtesy

[Zyeriis]

I don't why you assume he wouldn't give up the shank if he got what he wanted, the tongue. He doesn't want to fight king Behemoth unless he has to. Getting the tongue in exchange for a shank is a much better deal for him. If he doesn't get a tongue or a shank why give up 99 ks for someone guy he doesn't know and who has a rep for being a lootninja.

Did you forget he's trying to say that no one has common courtesy? The very thing the thread is about, is what he lacks. And, again, he didn't know the person was a douche (and if he did, he shouldn't have gone in the first place, seeing how the deal proposal wasn't until after they left). That person being who that person was, is completely irrelevant. Wasn't the other person's fault the tongue didn't drop. There's no justification to not upholding his side of the deal, aside from a lack of "common courtesy" on his part. He backed out of a deal that gave him a chance, not a guarantee (either way, whether it was if it dropped that he would 100% get it or that if it dropped that he would get a chance to lot it even if it wasn't his orb). If he wanted to know what would happen if it didn't drop, then he would've asked that right as the deal was being made not after the fact.

This is quite literally, the last time I'm going to say this. The are no even plausibly legitimate counter-arguments to be made. "These are confidence man tactics!" being said over and over doesn't make it so. The person who lacked any form of courtesy in this situation was the OP. More than common courtesy was given with the deal proposal in the first damn place. I'm labeling this as a troll thread and going about my business since the OP couldn't even give specific details about the situation in his first post, why does he think that everyone else should be overbearingly explicit in making a relatively clear deal is beyond me.
