@Tension
I disagree with your contention that Red intentionally priced his products higher to individuals he thought to be friends or as you say it "amongst people you like."(ie A.Org folks). I ask you, have you or anybody here been forced to do business with Red? I think the answer most likely will be no, so who paid these higher prices? Only a buyer can be blamed for buying, not the seller. :roll:
As for Red's comments in the aforementioned thread that you referenced, IMO Red in no way behaved out of line given the comments that were made to him and about him. Red's comments were made in total self defense.
It's nothing personal Tension, but you need to clean your own nest.
