I make no bones about being new, and I see no harm pointing out what may be obvious to many.
Nothing in my post was an attack or offensive. I stated
my misunderstanding and how a careful reading of your ad mentioned
nothing about characters. I clarified that you meant ships, not characters. I further went on to point out how purchasing a capital can save a lot of game time. You responded with an attack.
I haven't read past the first four pages in the forum because the posts on that page have had no activity since February. During the last four months, only
one post has been for something other than characters, PLEX, ISK or injectors, and that was a [WTB] T2 prints. Given the
content on the forum (and the lack of anyone selling
any assets for the last four months), your ad could easily be understood to mean a
pilot capable of running those ships. In fact, many posters word character ads based on the ships they can pilot! Are you too arrogant to admit that your writing may be unclear to those not inside your narrow mind?
Are you just be pissed off because you really were trying to do bait and switch and you're angry that you were caught?
Ambiguity leaves a lot to interpretation. Your ad could mean you're really offering whatever you feel like you're selling at the moment, character or ship, whichever is more profitable. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, explained how I misinterpreted your unclear writing, and clarified things so other people reading character ads with similar copy would not make the same mistake. Your disproportionate attack makes you look like you were up to no good.
You're right that I'm too much of a noob to recognize an ad for ship sales, probably because I have yet read one written by a competent writer.
