    Then I could easily tell you the same thing. You don't understand and are wrong. Also why would I ask you anything if I think I am right? That doesn't make sense, you are claiming a high ground on a foundation that does not make sense.

    Realizing something is wrong requires you to have empathy for those who are wronged and you also feeling wronged when it happens to you.

    Great you actually agree with me on the matter. If you agree that it is wrong then why even argue this point about emotion?

    If that is what you are saying then if SE does not want to move forward with top 100 rewards in the future while keeping the past items restricted like they said, then I wouldn't have a issue with that beyond lamenting over the fact that they got rid of a system that rewards skill. As long as past rewards are treated as they were claimed to be treated that is fine.

    To your previous question on if they can alter the agreement for past items, absolutely not.

    They aren't breaking a agreement if they change it for future seasons, if they remove the option for future top 100 rewards then they are just changing the system. Breaking a agreement for past rewards is different and would be breaking a promise that has already been in effect and should be enforced.

    Nope. You seem to have a different view on what is different or not. You should leave it at that.

    Understanding the concept of wrong in the first place requires you to feel and have emotion in the first place.

    Definition of Wrong:

    unjust, dishonest, or immoral.

    To understand wrong you have to feel that way. Immorality is based on feeling. If you don't feel then you can't understand the concept of wronging other people.

So I was shown if I do not understand something someone is saying asking them to explain instead of being combative leads more positive result and fosters a healthier discussion. Since miscommunication is often a primary reason for a misunderstanding. Going based off the comment regarding the high ground I guess this misunderstanding in this moment just boils down to that fact you feel this is a debate and I view this as a discussion. That is why I removed those parts from my post, was never my intention to get into a debate with you, just to gain understanding. At the start I was hostile, but watching the thread I figured all the hostility would simply halt the discussion, which would be a shame since the topic in my opinion does open up interesting avenues of conversation.
    There was no misunderstanding. You equate saying someone is wrong with being combative. You also claimed that I did not understand and that I should ask you to explain because you think you are right.

    Anyways here is the definition of debate

    1.
    a formal discussion on a particular topic in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing arguments are put forward.

    I mean if you want to split hairs over whether it is a debate or discussion, they are the same thing, at least in this case you have a opposing viewpoint towards me, it is a debate whether you like it or not. If you want a true discussion then find someone who agrees with you on every single point. There is nothing more to say about this.

    I also will say this, I won't be responding to you if you edit your past post to respond beyond this point. If you can't make a new post and in so doing make it clear you are responding to a new post of mine then I won't debate/discuss with you further. Have a nice day.
