Code or not, the particular tone and wording of your statements were
unnecessarily offending. Quotes from the discussion policy:

Flame wars

Personal insults, argument for the sake of argument, and all the other
behaviors which fall into the "flame war" category are prohibited. Discussions
should focus on technical arguments, not the personality traits or motives of
participants.

Culture

In addition to technical skills, Boost members value collaboration,
acknowledgement of the help of others, *and a certain level of politeness*.

English is not my native language either. I assume, this is also the case for
many other readers and participants of the list. It's one more reason to be
more careful in a public conversation.
