This is rather like saying I\\\'m not allowed to complain when someone mishears something I say as something downright awful. If someone mishears \\\"I don\\\'t like those shoes\\\" as an anti-Semitic comment, for instance, the fact that he has blatantly misunderstood me is quite relevant.
Rae, it would have taken you literally two lines in the thread (not even in the PDF, just \\\'\\\'in the thread\\\'\\\') to say that you were using specific game mechanics from other people\\\'s work. That you didn\\\'t is dishonest and lazy and that you keep insisting it\\\'s no big deal is part of the reason I\\\'m continuing to harp on about it.
You\\\'ve yet to explain how two uses of the word \\\"stealing\\\" (both the same use and both semantically accurate) constitutes vitriol.
