No, it wasn't approiate at all.... and I do see they apologized and the rationale for the comment.
There have been situations where Dr. Bob has stated something to the effect of "I'm sorry things are difficult for you right now, but please don't post if you feel that you are out of control". I'm paraphrasing. I think that advice (warning) is of particular importance when name calling and hurtful remarks are concerned.
I understand posters can lash out and then be really remorseful, but I also believe in the "civil" behavior expected here and we all agreed to those terms as being part of this "community".
I'm sorry that happened to you.
If you stay around long enough, these things do happen - if these boards are a help to you, please don't let those incidents run you away.

I'm sorry that happened. I'm sure that no one else agrees with that statement. I surely don't. None of the other posters did either.

sock snowman brought tears to my eyes.

Hey,
That post was just uncalled for. You seem like a really great guy. :-)

Thanks all for your support. I appreciate the civilty rules of this particular board. I've lurked other boards where any one post would spiral the whole board into an all-out slugfest. I think Ian24 and I have a mutual understanding, if not that, then a truce. Nobody likes having unjustified anger directed at them, but I'm guilty if doing it too and maybe this was some karma.
I do tend to be pretty timid and suspicious. It took something like this and the reaction to it to know I'm actually accepted. Thank you.
