Hi :)

Insults are unnecessary and unhelpful.  Personal arguments and criticisms would 
be better off-list too.  Just my opinion, clearly a lot of people disagree, but 
i agree with Marcello.

There are at least two ways to express a good idea: by writing a polite 
and thoughtful response, as you did, or by mixing it with insults. I 
think the first form acheives the best results. That's all.
