*I'm* taking things out of context? When this thing first
started, I leveled the charge that harvest-twinkers who camped
at a site to get extra items or items they couldn't use for
their other lesser characters were bad for the game. Then all
of a sudden three or four people started saying I was wrong
because they're twinking with items they're not using anymore
with their main characters. I don't know if I was too vague
in my original statements, or if these people are grasping at
whatever straws they can to justify twinking.

Please, reread what I've written. I've not only said
"twinking" items that you don't use anymore is fine, I've said
I even do it myself on occasion! I made the followup to your
post in exasperation because yet another person took what *I*
wrote out of context, not the other way around. (Again, I
don't know if the fault is mine for not being clear enough - I
apologize if it was.)
