I call that the response you were looking for and hoping to get. I don't agree with him bringing up your personal life in the response but it's no more offensive than your "ignorant asshole" comment above.
Dan has never been the dramatic type, so for now, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt here. I think he started this thread as a response to accusations from a member or members, that he was trying to pull members to another board. I see nothing wrong with him wanting to clear things up out in the open.
