Ah yes. Dismiss the flaws in your own argument by pointing out that others do the same. Two wrongs should certainly make a right!
Reading is fundamental, my friend. I wasn't even referring to you. That was in response to Frankie.
My one instance is irrelevant, but your TWO are law? It's anecdotal evidence, pal. That means that what happens to you might not happen to everyone else. That was the entire point of that whole example. Moreover, it was directly related to your own single anecdotal account of your poor experience with your Xenoblade preorder. Apparently, if it happens to you at Gamestop, the company is evil, but if it happens at Namco, it doesn't matter. Please.
Again, reading is fundamental.
