Actually, depending on one's perspective, a lot of things might fit the category of "okay." Not everyone will agree, of course. And rightfully so.And this is not a neat black-and-white issue, though many folks will feel capable of identifying (in and out of context) the villains and victims.
Look at your "it's okay Dave" post, for example. First, you pump yourself up as an innocent, which based upon your posting history (and many people's responses to you now will reflect heavily upon past events) is not an entirely accurate depiction, even though your post prompting the fanging was by its own merit tame and generally harmless. Your own mindset in the past was seemingly such that you did not see (or want to believe)your own role in tangled threads at AR and AA. Second, your final line is an awkward sarcastic remark, phrased in such a manner as to look like an attempt to pass itself off as a generous assessment of someone who had just written a scathing attack not warranting any generosity. Do you think stuff like that is going to change people's views of you, or suggest to them you have matured and grown in wisdom and tact?
My short question was an honest one, with me wondering why someone felt compelled to strike out in the fashion he did. It wasn't meant as a judgement of him in any fashion, or an invitation for anyone to plead their own case, or take an opportunity to fire a return volley. I personally don't view myself as a sage or anyone with any less foibles than everyone else; nonetheless, I will offer these observations in case they are of any value to you.
