Was that post directed at me, ausar_maat? Because your reply doesn't seem to make sense here.
I don't recall insulting you; maybe I have, but I don't remember it.
Nor was my post part of an
argument, so I don't know why you think I am trying to "win an argument here".
Now I readily admit to having intentionally insulting other members. But either the insult was meant to be entirely gratuitous and not part of any argument, or the the insult was one comment in a longer post that contained (what I intended to be) a much more substantive argument.
Perhaps you meant your post to someone else?
