I could've phrased it better - I meant that that the whole unfolding of events generally doesn't reflect well on participants. Just getting sucked into a mudfight is bad, though their response was good. I'll do a clarity edit.

For context, here's my exact edits:

Before - This whole thing is coming across pretty amateurish on all sides.

After - This sort of thing never winds up reflecting well on people involved, just getting caught up in a personal back and forth and speculating on people's motives and nonsense like that.
