She wasnt making a disagreement with me, she was being condecending in lieu of disagreeing with me. I called her on it.
Since you dont understand this, I will make an analogy.
Imagine if you said "I wish WoW had better music".
It would be fair for me to disagree by saying "I like the music" or "I think the music is good becacause <insert reason>."
But it would be rude of me to say "There is an option to change the music - turn down the volume".

I understand why you read condescension into the reply. You got your riposte back in, with interest. Tal wants the tone in this thread not to devolve any further. When a mod/admin steps in, the usual Lounge RoE is not to get into a slugging match with the Mod/Admin.
When a mod asks me to edit a post or gives me "Occhi, that was mean spirited" I go to PM to discuss. Generally the Mods/Admins have it right, and I have it wrong, or they'd have not stepped in at all. On a rare occasion I have slugged it out, which makes for entropy, at best, and poison on the Lounge at worst.
I'd suggest a PM conversation with Tal if you wish to pursue this point further. He is trying to keep the Lounge tone friendly, and is right to do so.
