The one thing I truly hate about internet forums is you have no clue how to interpret tings at times. I got tossed off an off road forum a few years back because of a comment I made to a friend........he took it as a joke but someone else took it as a threat and threw a fit....Misunderstandings are part of life, not much one can really do about it. It is good that you put this out there instead of letting it stew......no doubt that would have not been good for you....
