Oh, you weren't, like, wildly off topic. You were just making (arguably
insulting) statements that were mostly irrelevant. And not actually
addressing the point at hand, while adressing something that wasn't actually
under discussion.

No, no, I did write that. But if you were actually paying attention to the
discussion, you would have realized that the discussion was not about how I
wanted to sell a support deck, or how I wanted to defend the selling of
support decks. The discussion was about people wanting to witch hunt folks
selling support materials, how it might seem reasonable to sell a deck that
one had acquired by any of a number of different means, and whether it was
relevant where support materials came from after they end up on e-bay.

The discussion was not about "Yaa! I can sell my Nergal deck for $200.00!",
which is what you responded to.
