I very much suspect that you are on to something. Part of what prompted me to respond is that very little of the mud in this thread is being slung for the reasons stated. Would he be better off if he were less defensive? Perhaps. If this were your thread, would you have made it this far without defensiveness (Perhaps you would as you seem fairly thoughtful. On average, how many others do you believe would have?)?
The actual hostility in this thread is not coming from the OP. That may well be predictable as the result of a fairly innocent tactical error, as mr. ploppy points out, but predictability shouldn't make those eager to make unfounded personal attacks feel justified.
