You're coming off very over-defensive, calm down before you reply.
A point by point reply isn't a typical HN response, shelve it for a more appropriate response in future. You'll not only make your point much better, but you'll come across better too. This isn't reddit or digg, people like civility here and your response doesn't come across as such.
IMO you're taking an anonymous comment way too seriously, and you repeat yourself repeatedly. Quite frankly, you come off as an ass, and it certainly isn't suitable to HN. You're (IMO) on the verge of flaming, in fact you're probably beyond it but you don't appear to make a habit of these responses so I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt; you're (usually) a good commenter and we don't need to have you turning into a troll on us trying to start flame-wars.
- jhancock 17y agoI"m not interested in starting flaming behavior and very much value good behavior in this forum. GrandMasterBirt's post was quite offensive: "5) Should we go on? You missing the point of the article."
