I disagree, but if you can show me where it has been used before in this context - I am open.

Does Wikipedia count?

If not, will these do?

I can link another few hundred of these if you still "disagree".

Thank You. Also being snippy isn't a good look. I asked politely.

You also disagreed while having no knowledge of the topic and not even bothering to do a five second google search. But instead of taking a moment to verify it for yourself you asked someone else to do the work for you while also implying that the person you are asking for help is wrong.

It may have been polite on the surface, but that's it.

So someone having a different point to you is a problem, but when they also ask for a correction you get snippy.

Sorry you feel put upon to inform people when they ask politely. I usually answer because I like to help people.

>It may have been polite on the surface, but that's it.

It is totally polite. I ask for a context and said I was open. Wow.

It's not a different point. It is you disagreeing with an indisputable, easily verified fact. There is a difference between "it's a bit chilly today" and "it is snowing in Ecuador right now".

No, totally polite may have been something along the lines of "Oh that's interesting, I didn't know that. Do you have an example of its use in a regular game so I can familiarize myself with it a bit more?" But even that is showing a lack of willingness on your part to look for yourself before asking others to do your research for you.

You were the one being a snippy shit, don't even act like that was genuine politeness.
