since you didn't include it, and it was moved and then you asked why, and followed that up with "I had a right to ask a question"... I still don't think that is passive, but he could perceive it as you being defensive...which it sounds like he did...

either way.. I don't think you did anything wrong really, and at best it was just a misunderstanding..

I could have been a little defensive. He moved my post without explaining why, so I did not know if I was inappropriate or just bumbling. I don't think I wrote ** there. I just wrote "I did not know where to put it." If he had said "defensive", it might have felt more like the criticism fit the crime. "Passive aggressive"? That really felt like he was attacking me or accusing me of something really intentional. And it wasn't.

btw, I did not hear from him again. I will see if I got kicked off his board.

thanks,

Billi
