Oh, good on you to label this discussion as QQ. Shows your maturity well.
Um just going to bring you back to this point Snak3 to repeat what you were told earlier. The problem here was that he offered help and then jumped in *without getting a response*. It doesn't matter if it had been 4000 seconds. You cannot as a freelancer engage without a "yes I'll pay you x amount for helping." It would be too early otherwise.
What was said that day as a reply could be interpreted as "yes", although it is somewhat vague.
too much...
howevery, here are my 2 cents:
i usually get nervous and need a while to think of what to write in RP, it sometimes takes me 10-18 seconds to as maximum to decide what to write ,write it and send it. i usually give the opponent 4-8 seconds before engaging After i declare engaging in RP.
good luck
