    The way you sounded was very condescending. If you received a similar sounding reply by others, it was probably because of the way you worded your posts.

    As much as I want to trust your word on that, I really can't. Not that it matters though because you seem to have missed that I completely agree with your points that a third retainer would be very welcome. It was unnecessary to argue with me because I already agreed in the first place.

    I understand that, I was replying to your thought;
    Quite disappinted that you didn't take up the consideration. Just imagine more than a million players each gaining 175 extra slots. Nonetheless, a free extra retainer would be nice.
    So I took up the consideration and imagined the worst case of all characters on all accounts gaining an extra free retainer and illustrated the space required to do it. I wasn't arguing against your point, and I am not sure why you felt that I was. I certainly wasn't trying to be condescending, and I apologize if what I wrote made you feel that I was, it wasn't the intent. I was simply projecting out the worst case numbers and then blowing it back to a per world number, which turned out to be not such an unreasonable amount of additional database space...

    You replied saying that I was arguing unnecessarily, when in fact I was simply replying to your post - as I pointed out - and not arguing with you. If anything your responses have been both argumentative and actively taking offense where none was intended. Why not go back and re-read my post and see if you can identify where I was arguing with your thought. I don't believe that I was.

    However, I apologize if I have caused you any offense, none was intended.
