I don't understand what Doors problem with Stephen is. In my allbeit limited history with Stephen he's never been anything but professional and kind, though up-front and sometimes rather blunt, he's usually right about a lot of things.
Seems rather childish that the fact that he added an "about-the-author" section to his writings is what's setting Door off. And even more childish that you're so petulant that you had to go and mock him by adding it to your signature.
I won't be so cliche as to tell you to grow up, but grow the **** up.

yo, it wasn't just his self-inflated attitude, posting this article everywhere and acting like it would save servers (nevermind the about-the-author bit, oh God why), it was the fact that he was doing all of that while the article itself was a load of nonsense. My judgment of people is based on many observations--I don't just look at intention and think that every single thing that person does is worthwhile (or the opposite) just because they originally intended to achieve good things. When even the most respectable people pump out crap, they should get crap for it.
Maybe you don't agree with me, that's fine. But this is how improvements happen. Stephen sure as hell won't be posting anything quite as bad as this anytime soon. Well... actually nm scratch that, I don't think he really cares about the quality or usefulness of anything he does, it seems way more about stamping his name on it. But who knows, maybe he's got good intentions! And somehow, that is supposed to make his crap both acceptable and impressive!
