It wasn't a bash, it was a clear and concise explanation of why everything HiFish had said was largely irrelevant to the conversation, with some snark thrown in. Pointing out silliness is not bashing, especially when there have been milder attempts to get someone on-board with the topic.
Except that if you actually read through the forum you'd notice how he carefully left out some things to make my comments seem completely out of place and his interpretation of what I said did nothing else but to turn it my posts into ridiculousness. What he said also exceeded being snarky by a fair bit and turned into personal insults, which is why his post shouldn't be taken serious either way.
