    Did I hit a nerve where you felt you had to strike back? It did you no favors.
    So now that you lost the argument all you have left is ad hominem?

    This: "Or is it that you got caught? Trying wiggle yourself out of your nonsense claim isn't helping you here." is the very definition of ad hominem: attack the person rather than the argument.

    It was unnecessary to your actual reasoning that followed.

    This: I pointed out that this is how I read it the first time. You replied with actual words that described what you meant to say the first time, along with an ad hominem attack that added nothing to your comment except shade.

    Yours is not better than mine though.
    You have won no argument. As you said yourself in that reply, before you apparently decided snark was an argument.

    Explaining what you were doing and how you were wrong isn't ad hominem. Moreover, my reply to you had a full breakdown of how my opinion on the matter were backed up by hard evidence. But you don't want to discuss that anymore; I'll leave you to your emotions.

    Simple, you got caught not knowing how to read. Moogle tomes is better content than all the trash ffxiv has in endwalker and would have been better at the start of patches. Not my fault xiv's relic content at the end of patches amounts to 1 day of tome farm.

    Ad hominem fallacy is an attempt to discredit someone’s argument by personally attacking them. Instead of discussing the argument itself, criticism is directed toward the opponent’s character, which is irrelevant to the discussion.

    A difference of opinion is not met with "what you were doing and how you were wrong". You've just described the ignoble art of Flaming superbly.

    Regardless, I have less respect for any future opinion you make on these forums regardless of whether they match my own or not. Congratulations.

    You'll find that a large number of forum members have the guy you're arguing with blocked. With the way he's acted towards you in this thread, you can probably clearly see why. I wouldn't get too worked up arguing with him if I were you.
