That's a fair criticism. I thought about that myself. Condescension I will absolutely own up to, but this kind of cheeky condescension is part of my regular posting style, and it's firmly on-brand for me, so I'm gonna stick with it, and if people don't like me for it, that's certainly their right and I can't fault them one bit.

I'm not sure about disparagement, though. Did I overtly disparage?

If you're mainly talking about the very last sentence, then I'll agree that it's questionable. I debated putting it in. It is definitely a jab, but I consider it a friendly one, as I know my own motives and I have no ill-will for Niara at all. We've talked a lot and she's one of my favorite people on these forums. Really, it should have some kind of winking face attached, but I can't stand using those, so I'm willing to accept that it may be interpreted in the most malicious way by some people.
