Default Re: Not an error report, just question about OOB12

I understand that was how you took it from your response. All I can say is that inference about tone from text written on discussion boards, chat programs, and the rest on the internet can lead to interpretations quite different from author intention. My writing style has gotten me into trouble before, I apologize for leading you to believe my intentions were more hostile. My post was long simply because I wanted to make sure people had the history that I myself was working with in my mind when it came to mind after searching through infantry in OOB12 and it immediately appeared this way (I had been looking through mech and airmobile units while doing other edits, which led me to make this post, which are a small subset, and for which my assertion is in part true).

Furthermore, a response to me of "its really not the case if you look yourself," would have led me to look for myself and admit my fault, because it simply isn't the case. Why worry about giving the whole detailed response when any person checking to challange you would run into the same facts? This isn't academic discourse, this is a discussion forum, I don't think anyone would fault you for not providing references.

However, you can see the same in how I interpreted you response, which I felt in the cases of the 3rd and forth paragraph and the last one, that seemed to be overly hostile to the fact that you were having to do all the research that I could have done myself.
