The comment you're replying to was definitely a bad one, but we need you to resist the urge to respond with a personal attack. Your comment would be fine without the last sentence.

We appreciate your many positive contributions to HN, and we just ask you keep in mind that HN can only be a good place to participate if enough people make the effort to keep it that way.
