I might agree with the substance of your point, but the tone is very
harsh.  THe last sentence is sarcastic.

Please don't talk to people that way here.  People who are treated
harshly tend to respond with more hashness, and that makes
participation painful.  Please express your views without making
anyone feel attacked.
