It's as much speculation as was your initial complaint that he "left Jeuno" with this person. You speculated too, right? It's every bit as valid, yet you were the one that called him on it as if it had happened that way. You didn't even present it as a "might." You just chewed Sneezy out as if that was the way it had happened. It's absolutely acceptable to come to someone's defense based on what might have happened; it's best to withhold judgement if there's any doubt. I don't think the same could be said for bitching someone out about something that might have happened. As far as making judgements about something we're not sure about is concerned, you've committed the worse sin ... if any were committed.
Well, you've basically justified ignoring something I said because it was speculation, and then you (literally) make up a conversation that may have taken place. I mean ... hahaha, oh, never mind.
What we do know for certain is that Aced only piped up with this information just before the first kill, telling the rest of the party to "hurry up." This could mean the situation was anywhere from the puller bringing the mob back to camp, to it already being engaged. At the very, least, they certainly weren't any more than several seconds from a pull, perhaps a minute at most. I mean, with things that close, was the party honestly supposed to put the brakes on that first pull just to put a stop to Aced's selfishness?
Even with the most generous of estimates, the information came too late to do much about it. The only one to blame here is Aced himself.
Anyway, I won't derail the thread any further. Enjoy your point of view on this one: I think you're alone with it.
