Don't rise to it, from what I see as an outsider, this is unnecessary needling. But perhaps I don't have the context, it's just how it comes across.

The use of mate is interesting here. I thought he was coming up with a complaint about your irrelevant reference to Gamepass. You seem more interested in being inflammatory and winding someone up.

I.e. I operate on a different plane which you're too thick to understand, carry on.
Venom wrote: So Microsoft raising the price of Xbox Live to move people onto Game Pass is a legitimate question because it is related to the business model above, regardless of whether you are aware or not of all that.
Whether you are aware of it are not... This sounds again patronising and like a debate you are having in your own head. Or else purely to get a rise.

But just because your feelings were hurt because you feel protective of this multi-billion dollar American company don't feel victimised on behalf of them. A different opinion from you doesn't mean trolling. And by you incorrectly calling me a name it just means you're not being civil.
You are here being so obviously attempting to wind someone up about hurt feelings etc that I really think this is rude.
Photek, really don't respond.
