Eh what? Ben notices that you're overly negative, and you attack him for noticing it ... in a thread discussing politeness and all that.

Being the insensitive person I am (as sping has pointed out quite nicely) I'd say that you've shown repeatedly that you are not interested in engaging in a proper discussion. So having some negative karma hit you shouldn't be unexpected. Now please do as Ben said and leave us amateurs with our stupid moronic stuff (as you've pointed out multiple times) to do things wrongly while you have a chance to do them right over there. kthxbai, Patrick P.S. If you find any sarcasm, irony or similar you can keep it. Maybe you can put it to good use at last.
