Flame wars are not welcome here. Address the topic, not the person. What that means is when you're debating a topic, debate the topic. Adding personal insults into your posts nullifies your argument and may result in your post getting wiped by a moderator. There's an old Internet adage which simply states that the first person to resort to personal attacks in an online argument is the loser. Don't be one. When flaming gets out of control, you will be asked to take your tiff to email or private messages. There's no reason to air your fight in public, and we don't want to see it.
This rule applies doubly so when you make your attack against one of the more highly-respected posters who was trying - in a calm, reasonable way - to explain why it is irritating (for those of us who read both places) to have the same question posted by the same person at the same time.
You don't know what you're talking about.
