Well, you might not want to make it about you but that's how I read it (and I'm sure many other members too, though again it's only my opinion). Communicating through a medium limited to text only can be misleading, it is extremely easy to be misunderstood online - I know I have made my share of mistakes like that. Generally stopping before posting to check whether you're calm is a good way of eliminating most cases of your post being misread. Posting in anger, excitement, basically any strong or semi strong emotional state significantly increases the risk of miscommunication. And miscommunication is the single most frequent reason for conflicts.
Be more zen.
Anyway, I am glad we can talk about this in a civil way, I was worried this discussion might escalate into something nasty and personal.
