That's not how your comment came across, and you should well know it. What it looks like is a sarcastic smart-arse remark, especially given how you attacked Endoperez in the suggestions thread for disagreeing with you.

If you thought Frank's comment was smart (which is true), you could have just said you think he has the right idea. Now you just looked like a troll. Unless of course you meant to say that he is twice as smart as an average person, but if this was what you meant, you shouldn't have butchered the statement so badly. We do expect people to use English here, even if it is sometimes badly written, but completely mutilating what you want to say until it looks like something entirely different will get you adverse reactions and it will be nobody's fault but yours.

Naresh, yes, I remember your being new. Hell, you still are. That time I snapped at you was a clear mistake and out of bounds behavior on my part, and I hold no ill will toward you for being new here. You're enthusiastic and doing your best to contribute, even if you sometimes don't know how to do everything you want to. That's why you might have noticed me posting some replies to you when you've asked for advice. Contrast with Bonvine's posting history, there is a big difference. Don't assume I'm generally hostile to new people just on principle.
