The short of it is this:

A newbie posted a topic in Vindictus Discussions(granted it was wrong spot, should have been in help).

They were respectfully asking for help getting started using our hacks.

Paladin mis-interpreted the first line where they said "honestly I'm just looking to get some gold to buy armor". He assumed they were begging... But if you continued to read, they said "I just want some help getting started because this is all overwhelming". Which is very understandable in our section.

I quoted and said they weren't begging, and why. Then offered the help the newbie needed on how to go about getting started.

Then the topic vanished so it seems to have been deleted for basically no valid reason.

Was hoping this would get looked into and the topic restored so I can continue helping the new user instead of driving them away.

I guess that wasn't so short..
