Goodkind could have contacted the pirate privately and he could have vented all he wanted to publicly without identifying the guy. But he chose the worst, nastiest, most potentially harmful way to handle the situation.

My best guess is that Goodkind was upset, or to use the more clinical term; thoroughly pissed. It may very well come back to haunt him, I don't know. If it does, then I agree, he would have to share some of the responsibility.
