Not to drag this out any further, but I have neither whined nor flamed. I do not post on Slashdot or Fark. After reading through my posts in this thread again, I don't see where they could be interpreted as posturing.

By continuing to defend myself in this thread, I am doing nothing good to my reputation, so I obviously don't care about that. I posted some cheap XP whoring code, and I don't mind being "called", as you put it, on that.

My soap box has one message on it: Don't say you're not attacking people personally when you attack them personally.

Two questions: Why all the swearing? What does FYAD mean? If it is "Fuck you and die", and since you live in the same city as me, am I supposed to be watching my back now? Should I worry about my kid when she goes out to play?
