Where is the line? (thread locked, I believe) Topic

I guess its time to abandon the forums for a while until a decontamination occurs.
And this is the problem: good users are going to abandon the boards until and unless something is done about this person.

In my 4+ years of playing HD I have never had an issue with somebody on the boards...until this Etta dude showed up.  WTF?

Someone else offered double...but never said double what.

So what's the actual dollar value of the offer? If you actual put a number down or in effect did, then humor me because I've forgotten the details.
in the original thread you stated that you wanted your money returned because you felt mislead and cheated. I get the sense you still harbor those feelings. I don't personally like the way you interact with some people that I respect, so I would be more than happy to refund the money you feel you were cheated out of so that you can leave the site feeling 'whole'. I am not going to reward you for your actions by paying more than you are out. I don't dislike your comments that much. 

Now you need to profit off of this too?

My offer is simple. You paid $4.95 for a 1st season special and $12.95 for a second season. Even though you've played most of that 1st season, in good faith and to keep it simple I'll ignore that and go with a full refund. To be even more generous, I'll round it up to $20. I'm willing to lose a couple sawbucks to remove you from my life. 


::edited to add - you are, of course, fully entitled to decide you want to stay with the game, for whatever reasons, even if it is that you (somehow) find entertainment value or joy from these threads. That's great if that's your choice, but if so, please in the future be wary of complaining about your fiduciary loss regarding the game. By refusing my offer for fair reimbursement you in effect forfeit the right to be indignant about the money you "lost".

Ok so that's clear. 

I can't find the thread where that was posted, so who was the person that said they'd double it?

As for being concerned about reneging, that's an easy solution. Just ban the screen name from posting on the boards. For 60 bucks, I'd consent to it. Log the IP if you want. Then I just play the game and either suffer or succeed in silence, or leave quietly. Either way, you never hear from me again. 
no thank you. I am willing to make you whole in terms of letting you leave without feeling you lost money on the deal, but I have no interest in rewarding you financially for your behavior. Good luck with everything.
But you're not. You're just paying me the 20 to remove me from your life. Nothing's changed for you.

I'm just asking for the other person who offered double that to step up. Anyone else that wants to sweeten the deal is also welcome to do so. 

I apologize for the confusion on my part - I believe the mistake in understanding might have occurred because your specific figure came after my quoted post, and I didn't intuit that you were combining that with the offer from someone else. Re-reading it, I do see that context. If someone else wanted to do something I can't speak to that. I've tried to not read most of these threads, so I do not believe I ever saw that mentioned somewhere, so I cannot offer any help in that regard.

When I was still fairly new, I took things personally once in awhile, but I usually just left for awhile when offended. Never had anything like this.
