Upon re-reading Strauss's first comments, I'm not sure if I'd go as far as to call them polite. They include very strong accusations and more than one overly broad statement about the way that the MST had been doing his job in general. It wasn't threatening or directly insulting, but for such a delicate matter, more tact may have been in order.

I put forth that your estimation of Strauss's tone at that time as both "polite and appropriate" is an opinion, and one I happen to disagree with. It's not an offense worthy of how Alex responded, but it didn't look like Strauss had his weapons of bile and wit peace-bound either.

Hey DM, can I have a longsword +2 of bile and wit?
