I have to disagree that a warning is warranted. I am respectful of all members at all times and my comment was merely meant with regard to what CptPicard posted as a hint that I thought his comment was a bit derogatory:

It is basically making fun of my opinion that arguments should be based on content rather than the authority of those who argue it. It
is a throwaway comment as I mentioned as it serves nothing to the discussion. It simply makes it clear that CptPicard disagrees with my opinion... It need not be said (especially in such a condescending way) and I actually think that it is more warranting of a warning than my post. It is clearly disrespectful.
You say I shouldn't dismiss his comments as thowaway, but as said, it was throwaway.
Perhaps the reason it was found offensive was that I used a plural when I only meant to refer to that one sentence; that I apologize for, but I still don't see how it is in breach of the CoC. That said, CptPicard has posted similar comments recently that seem a little less than respectful...
So I must ask you to reconsider. I understand that the warning will disappear in 7 days, but I don't like my name to be dirtied! Perhaps a good resolution would be if I were to edit the post in question to use only a singular (as intended) and I'll be sending an apology for any offense caused to CptPicard, shortly.
Thanks,
Lster
