You know what? You are the correspondant for Merchants and yet you treat people like every other person out there does when they want to know something, then someone tells them, they treat it like some huge secret they won't just tell anyone. You have to playthat I know and you don't, neener neener,game.You yourself complainedabout this in your original thread, and here you are doing it.

A correspondant to a profession should be better about these things.

Skedoozy, has it ever crossed your mind that I was asked not to tell people, from people who are in a position to tell me not to?

I pointed you in the right direction, I am a player, I am not some paid SOE person, so don't throw that "You are the correspondant for Merchants and yet ..." It is weak, and it doen't do you any favors. Fact is I really work hard for you all, more than most correspondants, and crap like that makes me want to just stop posting the things I learn.

If I did not want you to have it, I would not have pointed you to my pre, getting yelled at, post! No, I am not just going to come out and say it, because I can't, I was hoping one of you would have looked at others shouts, and worked it out, the clues are clear, and posted for other. No one told me, I just sat in my basment and kept saying "Test"

Wow, a conspiracy comes out!

Here I thought that Margie was just having fun with the guy, which she has a perfect right to. She was giving pretty easy to follow hints. You are doing great, Margie, an I hope you don't get discouraged by the occasional impatient fool. They are everywhere, sad to say, so we all have to put up with them. Showing you are hurt by their foolishness just seems to encourage them though.

However, I find the implication that somebody at SOE told Margie to keep quiet about something already posted very interesting. I didn't really care much about the technique until I heard that.

Come on, spill the beans Margie, and give us all the details. Who was it? Did they say why? What did they threaten you with or promise you to keep quiet? Does it have anything to do with alien invasions or secret societies?

I love conspiracy stories!

hehe, I am not telling, why? because it is not important.

The point was that I am not obligated to tell everyone everyhting I know. There ia huge level of entitlement that some people have, a total unwillingness to just try something out on there own. I did.

I wanted you to work for it, I wanted you to just try something, without being spoon feed.

I was not hiding the trick, I was pushing you to get it on your own, then you too would have the secret.

*puts on Yoda voice*

Powerful that skill is young merchant, you are not ready.

*Slips into 70's Kung-fu TV show*

As soon as you can snatch the pebble from my hand, the secret is yours.

*Falls out of trance*

Meh, whatever. If they didnt want the info out there the thread with that information would have been deleted. If they did indeed ask you not to spread the info at all then your taking place in the the thread at all other than to say please don't discuss this here, would be pretty much disobeying them. Say what you will though.

Not trying to make you mad or be confrontational, I just saw something that was pretty ironic considering your last thread, and no, the thought that someone with power told you to not say anything about it never crossed my mind because quite frankly that sounds like a moronic thing to want to keep from people.
