Yeah, I saw his apology .. it seems as though brow beating a good natured noob has earned you another scalp for your belt.
I also saw a number of other posts gently chiding you for being tough on the new guy over the semantics of his use of the word "post" in the place of "thread" or "article" ... and for accusing him of posting "bald faced lies".
So, victory is yours pyx, you've convinced me that you're right and I'm wrong. I surrender to the power of your superior intellect.
