Quote : "In addition, night combat was very, very common on all fronts in WWII so you are a
history denier if you don't want to make that effort. Which is bad. Not Good."
- I was not denying the importance of night combat.
- I was just saying that I am not at ease with night rules (and that HiF not needing to use them was a good thing for me, as it allowed me to try out a CG)
- One could argue that stricto sensu "history denier" could just mean that I was denying the fact that night combat was important, but the problem is :
- that it is a name calling and a blanket judgement on all players who don't play night situations
- that it was used in an agressive, haughty and intolerant way: there was no need to interact that way.
When I mildly underlined that his accusation was not the nicest way to adress my post, his answer was : "If that
dramatic accusation pushes you over the edge and into Night scenarios, it was worth it. Just like Trump calling Kim Jong Un "Rocket Man" and bringing peace and denuclearisation to the entire Korean peninsula as a result. But I digress."
Hardly a word of appeasement (I am not Kim Jong Un) - and certainly not a way of encouraging me to retry the Night rules.
- that it is an expression linked to negationism
So, indeed, in my book, it is a serious insult.
My skin may be thin here after your standards.
After mine, a line was crossed that is not acceptable.
Well, I will now move on.
And I will try again Night rules with a friendly opponent - I know plenty of them.
