Umm, Has CP become Stackover flow?

Hi All, This is odd I posted a question Friday answered it my-self (rubber ducks are useful) and get a reply from a member that ends with

'Not from me': Oh yes from you. Please have a look to that crap piece of code. I'm pretty sure you have commented such crap for a new member much more directly :)
I have never answered a question in the 'style' he or it suggests, I am merely posting it here so the flame war can be more visible. I am not generally a 'softy' I tend to work on hardware more. I also think coming up with 'You should know better' of course I should, it does not need that attitude. Even newbies who ask questions should be treated with respect. If you don't know, you don't know, ask someone thats how Steg the cave man inveted the wheel. I'm guessing the Posted is an 'arm chair general' of the software world, knows attacking Stalingrad is a bad idea after there has been a route. Bile duct empty. Resume normal service. :-\ Also I forgot the gem:

As we've seen throughout the past six or seven years, some people are just a**holes.

The person in question is usually OK. And to be fair to him, there was quite a bit of information missing from the original question.
Fair enough, the thing that got me was I had sorted it out, marked it as solved then get a 'learn to program reply' thats what ticked me off, Stack Overflow ended up being full of those types. Also implying I knew nothing of the Boolean logic of an if() statement! He did miss the classic 'why not a switch statement' which is what I was expecting...(I couldn't use one due to the size I was getting the code into). It was just the attitude I found odd...

Yes, I don't really understand why he took that attitude to your solution. Chalk it up to experience and move on, as they say.
Well I wasn't really going to anything else, just wanted to high light it as I feel thats how SO started to circle the drain :)

You must be new to the internet and online forums? Years (decades) ago when 'forums' were very primitive I remember being very surprised when an author of several books that I depended on tore into a newbie in a long tirade which basically boiled down to RTFM. Make me look more closely at other posts by that same person and noted similar posts. This is the person that I would have expected on that forum to be the absolute authority on the subject. Yet seemed more important to him to tell people not what to post.

No I am not (thankfully!), it's the first time I had that sort of tirade from a member who I have interacted with in the past. Also CP is one of the few, I feel are beginner friendly web sites the danger is if the people in charge are not aware of this behavior, CP will start to circle the SO drain. I just found the behavoir odd almost like the poster wasn't the poster (a hacked account or worse?)
