Unexpected Refund FURY Warrior order

[gliptitude]

eh, didn't realize this conversation had been carrying on while I was still writing my posts. I was writing before I saw the multiple fury posts and original email reprints. I didn't mean to fuel the fire, sorry. Seems like none of my business at this point. Maybe I will start a new happy Vectrex thread topic now.

I can see how Desfeek's use of language in his email to Fury could be misinterpreted especially if Fury had just spent a night toiling away to produce items for the hungary Vectrex community. I can also see that Desfeek's language was not full of malice and he was trying to be construtive but to the point of not knowing the full story and about all of Fury's activities which are happening invisibly in the background. I can also feel for Desfeek for loosing out on his purchases.
Given the misinterpretations, maybe Fury can reconsider Desfeek back into the purchase list, as Desfeek is but a young Vectrexian and I wouldn't want to dampen his enthusiam for the Vectrex world.
Hopefully, communication by private email between Fury and Desfeek is still possible and will result in an agreeable solution.

Desfeek, I didn't refund you to be spiteful, I refunded you to get rid of you. Put yourself in my shoes. I don't know who you are, and what your motivation is other than what you put in the email. I don't know if you're financially strapped or not. It was much easier for me to refund you, than to spend 15 minutes answering your demanding email, and then any subsequent emails. I don't have time for it, but you've managed to get me typing anyway. This thread you've started does seem spiteful. You started it after the problem was resolved . You had your money, but you wanted to cause trouble. And by the way, I never said it was a horrible email, but the way you presented yourself as "reaching out" at the beginning of this thread was really ridiculous. Now I see you've sent me another private email offering to buy it all back. I'm confused by all of this. You seem very angry in your subsequent exchange with gliptitude. Why you're comparing other developers, I don't know. Kristof is great, and there was a time when I released one game every year or so, and it's much easier to keep up with the orders. His output is far less than mine, so it's hard to compare. Madtronix is a nice guy too. Last I heard he was going to return to the scene. Anyway, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic about the money being your livelihood or not. If it is true, then that is exactly why I refunded you as we've already discussed.

I think "vective" is a genius. It's always fun when a current board member makes a new account to post one stupid message. In reality, vective, any time I "take measurements", it's simply to alleviate an aggravation or potential problem.

Term of the day...False Rarity

Due to this going through e-mail, and before this gets any worse, I'm locking this thread.

If there is enough consensus for me to unlock it via PMs, I'll do so, but I don't see the need for it right now.
