Since my praise post did include note of good (the first three words being 'nice and simple'), your reading skills are less a matter of insult and more a matter of fact.Archontor wrote...

Then your reading skills aren't up to par. I was referring to a singular person, whom I immediately followed in the order of posts, and singled that person out for praise.
If you read it as an insult to others... well, that's your own fault. Maybe you feel not being praised is an insult. Maybe you feel that if someone who is different from you is getting praised, then that's an implicit insult to you. I don't know, but it really isn't my problem. If you wish to feel insulted, who am I to stop you?
You see insulting my reading skills is not exactly the best way to convince me you're not being impolite, secondly you made a a similar post directly below a post of mine so yes I determine that there was an implied insult, finaly your 'compliment' was saying that it lacked bad traits not that it possessed good ones so it does seem like a poor way of icomplimenting someone unless you also whished to insult someone or a group as whole.As someone who does not deem torturing and dehumanizing someone before killing them in a self-satisfying manner as ever justified, no. I don't find you in a morally supperior position if you do that. For similar reasons and reasonings that I would not find youmorally superior in raping a serial killer in the process of arresting him or her. What you are doing has nothing to do with justice or accountability, and everything about personal gratificaction.Also going back to your original post were you mentioned "presumed superiority" I shall assume you ment moral superiority- the problem is as a paragon,paragade or questionably renegade you almost certainly do (I.E no tortuous expirents no kidnapping children, no thresher maw attacks, no assassinating Alliance officials that get in the way.)
After those three simple words it was an insult to others
Secondly, a few pages ago I also posted something along the lines of "Or as myself I would take his data for evidence and then turn him over to the Citadel." Thus a distinction between the shepard I play and the morals I hold for example I could not in good conscience shoot someone in real life but I'm perfectly happy to do it to countless mercenaries in-game
Thirdly it's less torture so much as advanced rengade interagation, My Shep would make it clear he's on a world with Thresher Maws and that he dosn't have many options, no harm would intentionaly come to him, after that being found guilty by a neutral party (well as neutral as aliens could be when cerberus is involved.) it's still more justified than some of the renegade options we take in the game proper.
