Talking with someone else about me and apparently my typical negative
behavior as if I were some kind of child who must be understood. It sounds
patronizing.
When you write "IME a thread with Warp dies when there is nothing left
for him than to apologize" it gives the strong impression that you are
saying "he always writes controversially, he is usually wrong, but always
too stubborn to admit it even though we show him how wrong he is, so he
is either forced to apologize, or the thread dies because nobody else
wants to continue". It sounds like you are implying some negative personality
traits. The worst thing is that you aren't telling me about it, but someone
else, making it sound like "you just have to understand him", which sounds
extremely patronizing and condescending. (Maybe it was not how you intended
it, but it *does* sound like that.)
"We have made progress", in this context, also gives an impression of
being patronizing. And since you are not telling that to me but to someone
else, it makes it sound like you were ganged up with others (or at least
want to be, like with a mentality of "we are right, he's wrong").
That's the impression your post gave me, which is why I replied in the
way I did.
