Sorry, but can anyone remind me when I am meant to have attacked Lady Crystel?

My "attack" on Paul, by the way, was in response to it being brought to my attention by a senior XMTX member that he was attacking us. This brought to my attention that he had been publicly accusing us of rip-offs for several months. Is it not generally termed self-defence when one responds to someone else's pre-emptive attack?
