I thought the above was an attempt at humor from someone who found your 
behavior rude but was trying to keep his temper anyway.  It can be hard to 
recognize a joke when it is in writing and you don't know the person.

Several of us thought it was rude to come here and announce that BL was 
useless (which nobody else has done in three years), but several people 
tried to help you anyway. A couple of people expressed their annoyance. 
Do you want to start over, phrase things politely in future, and help make 
improvements to the documentation?

Instead of criticizing two train stations for not having local bus maps, I 
just tracked down and delivered the maps to them.  They thanked me and 
promised to post them.
