I am not the least bit offended by being called a fool for my cheap XP-whoring code that I posted in the other thread.

This thread, on the other hand, is on the topic of stating that one's comments will never be personal attacks, that the offended party should re-read the post until he sees that he jumped to a conclusion, etc., etc, and then posting something that (debatably) falls into the category of personal attack.

It is my belief that doing that is being untruthful. Again (and boy did this get downvoted hard last time) I think that since the disclaimer against such action is a public one, breaking the disclaimer becomes a public issue.

Thanks for your comments.
