    It's not petty - you're saying it's important enough that you need to fight me over it, while also insisting that it's not/shouldn't be important to me.

    This isn't new with you, but I've started calling out people telling me to just accept something they want because it shouldn't be important to me, noting that if it wasn't important, they wouldn't be fighting me over it. You can't insist something isn't important or shouldn't be important to people when it IS important enough to you to fight over it. It being important to you would be sufficient for me to determine it's something I should find important to me as well. If it wasn't something worthy of importance, then you wouldn't be fighting me over it.

    Also:

    How am I the petty one for finding it important and not you being the petty one for proposing a solution that lets people be decent only but not match you? This is yet another insult you level at me that more accurately describes you.

    Why are you so petty, Ty?

    As I said to Sebezy, we know this would happen, because we have historic examples of it.

    And I have yet to find anyone who can prove "Cure 1 mages" exist. Maybe it's out there, but I've never seen any video evidence that this actually exists.

    You know very well if Healers were changed, the average DPS would go down - it's what you're counting on as otherwise, the change would be meaningless.

    It wasn't an insult. It was an observation of your behavior.

    No, it wasn't, because you were the one being petty, not me.

    When you insult people, at least have the courage of your convictions not to cower from it when called out.

    I didn't say "because you care, I care" (which wouldn't be petty, per se - "because you care about charity for children with cancer, I care" wouldn't be petty in most any context). I'm saying if it's important enough that you feel it's important, then it seems to me reasonable to believe it's important as well.

    Which means if finding it important is petty: You are petty.

    Call it "an observation of your behavior", if you like.

    .

    EDIT: Or, you know, just stop insulting or "observing" people in insulting ways. You never "observe" any positive things about me, so let's be real, it was an insult, and we both know it. You aren't stupid, Ty, and neither am I. Your deflections and defenses these last few days have been pretty lacking...so actually, I feel I should ask:

    Is everything going okay with you/in your life? You doing okay irl, buddy? (That, btw, is genuine.)

    No, it really IS petty when you say it like that. If you say "because you care about charity for children with cancer, I care" then I only expect that you only care because he cares about this issue and you wouldn't give a second thought if he didn't care about cancer....
    You're basically saying you're only paying attention because someone else is paying attention. The logic you are using is pretty much incongruous and shows you wouldn't give a damn about something like this had it not been for someone else.
