Jim, I have now read further through the thread and although I can see a POSSIBLE reason for the post you had pointed us to, the reason for the rest is less than clear - perhaps not the same person?

Whatever, from your side, to say that you are not prepared to be part of mud slinging would seem to be reasonable.

Assuming my suggested interpretation of your post was how Guest had read it, Guest may have felt him?self to be the injured party. If that is the case, up to there we have no more than an internet missunderstanding and sometimes the party that recieves the flame can help matters by clarifying what they mean't rather than how it was interpreted.
