The personal attacks in your comments are completely out of line. If you don't stop doing this I'm going to have to ban you, which I would hate, because we've both been around here for years and I've enjoyed your HN comments (especially about Smalltalk) since long before I became a moderator.

But you've been breaking the HN guidelines over and over again, and I've asked you to stop many times. You need to stop categorically if you want to keep commenting here. These rules apply to everyone, and it wouldn't be fair to other users to let you get away with it.

Well I'll stop this thread, though I don't agree I've attacked him at all; I've done no such thing and while I'll respect your wish to stop, you're wrong to claim I've attacked anyone as no such thing happened. If fact please point me at the guideline you're accusing me of breaking because I just reviewed them and I don't see anything that violates them; I am being civil and saying exactly what I would say to him in person. Pointing out bad behavior like arrogance and superiority is not a personal attack on the person, it's addressing the person's behavior.

The problem is that you're using personally uncivil language to do it, and that's not allowed.

I'd be happy to try to clarify this if you want to discuss it further, but [email protected] would be better than here.
