Robert, comments like this make a step in the wrong direction, they engage on emotional level, rather than trying to understand what’s going on, they don’t break the usual pattern, and so encourage following it further. Silas is allowing his emotions to make steps in the conversation in a way that distracts from its topic, and now you do too. It’s better if at least someone in a discussion doesn’t do that, and it’s much, much better if nobody does that.

You’re right. In re-reading my comment, it wasn’t helpful. I have a tendency to engage on an emotional level when I am engaged in such a manner.
And do you know what would be even better? If posters didn’t troll frustrated users reporting bugs, esp. by making unhelpful, inconsistent remarks!
