I'm not sure I get your point. I'm an asshole to people who are being assholes. I am nice to people who are being nice. If Breja and that other guy weren't being assholes, I would have no cause to return their shitty behavior to them. If they get upset over someone being mean to them, perhaps they should stop being dicks - don't throw stones in glass houses, and all that. To my mind, people who see people asking for help and do nothing but belittle them and mock them and attack them are the lowest of the low - how pathetic must your life be, that that is your source of fun, your source of enjoyment? Helping people, even people who are quite understandably frustrated, is much more rewarding than attacking them, in my experience. But they behave like assholes and then behave as though they're the ones who have been wronged, they're the ones on the moral high ground - it's absurd. But welcome to the internet, where their behavior can't be met with a fist to the face.
In regards to the solution - I found it on my own. There wasn't anything helpful in this thread for me, I had to go digging through unrelated help topics and forum threads to find a generic solution that partially worked. As near as I can tell, refreshing my account with a URL I found was the only thing that made an actual difference - GOG refusing to recognize my copy as valid seemed to be just something that had to work itself out, not something I could fix manually. I didn't try manual downloads once I got the actual game on my shelf instead of the Fig placeholder, though, so I don't know if those would have worked immediately or if I'd have encountered the same problems with authorization.
