Harmonious Dissonance

Heh. The funny thing was, if they had come to me and said up front, "Look, we feel that you're being a suck-up," or "We're offended by your posting style," I would've been more than happy to have had a civil discourse with them about it, even though I think those are stupid reasons to have issues with someone - especially when they're not true, as the former is not. But derailing a thread in order to attack me just didn't sit well with me.
