It's really very simple. When you do rude things, expect rude responses.

Somehow, you figured that cluttering up the forum with more of the same when there's already a very healthy topic on exactly the subject you've brought up here was a good idea. Why do you feel the need to fragment the discussion into two separate, yet identical threads? Do you feel that your particular contributions are somehow much more important than everybody else's?

If you had done the right thing in the first place and posted in the first thread or, assuming ignorance, moved your discussion there after its pressence was indicated to you then there wouldn't be a problem. But you act like you're in the right here, but you're not.

Look, I don't like being unpleasant to people, but I'm tired of watching the slow descent here as people just go and do whatever the hell they want, regardless of the basic ettiquet of the community. Perhaps you've just been caught in a bit of the crossfire, you don't have bad ideas here, but it's really not necessary to start a new thread when there's already a healthy, active, useful one around.
