    You said it, you didn't quote anyone and we're replying to them, no one changed the quote to twist what you said. No one's putting any words you didn't say in your mouth. They came straight from the source.

    Ahh okay. You really can't read.
    I mean, you might be deciphering the letters but you don't understand the words they form!

    I was going to say this: "Quoting someone partially to make him say something other than what he says in his full speech is ... at a minimum ... bad faith."

    But, in fact, you don't understand what you're reading!

    If someone says:
    Playing BLU to have access to skills giving a clear advantage over all the other players with whom one is in competition is the abuse of an exploit.
    you really think it means the same as:
    Playing BLU is the abuse of an exploit.
    I am sorry. You don't understand it, but all those extra words that are in the first sentence and not in the second make these two sentences not say the same thing at all!

    Likewise, we can effectively give weight to something by repeating it, but we cannot make it change meaning by repeating it. I'm sorry, it doesn't work that way.

    1. I quoted the whole post. Here's the link to the post itself (because apparently the one included with the quote system isn't enough) so people can see you're blatantly lying and arguing in bad faith: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...=1#post5408471

    2. Everyone knows exactly what you mean and no one's misrepresenting it, so kindly cut that crap. You're saying "Using i.e.: Missile on a FATE is the abuse of an exploit", it's completely wrong and no one said you were saying something else anyway.

    3. I can read fine. But apparently you can't argue something on the forums without shifting goalposts and lying through your teeth constantly . You went from drop rates of the medals, to FATEs being overhunted, to BLU players being Zodiark incarnate because it seems you were expecting to have FATEs all to yourself with 100% medal drop rates.

    4. You just shot all credibility and goodwill you might have had, by claiming someone who quoted one of your posts integrally is quoting you partially to change the context of what you said.
