Now you're playing coy. Please just speak like an adult in the future, don't use ad-hominems for no reason, as you tend to do. That's repeatedly dragging discussion down the pyramid of debate which is against site rules.

An ad-hominem attack is a fallacy, that is "a statement or an argument based on a false or invalid inference".

Assuming that you are talking about the latter comment being a tu quoque, I want to clarify that my argument there is not meant to imply that my criticism of your user interface is justified because of your hypocritical application of the rules. It is self-contained.

If you are instead referring to my original comment, however, then there is not even a man being attacked. You are using an unorthodox definition for ad hominem that I interpret as "saying naughty words" and so no argument can be had.
