I can see if it was read in a certain tone, it could have been unsupportive, sort of sarcastic. I don't think Wikid meant it that way, and I don't know if CE read it that way, but I can see it.
I think by trade, you and I don't take disagreement in and of itself as bad. I like many attorneys on the other side of cases. Some I despise, but most I can get along with. I like you and I think you are okay with me - cyber friends and all - but we do disagree on some things. I think we are respectful with each other and understand we come at things from different approaches. I don't think everyone has that understanding or training (I am NOT talking about wikid and/or CE or anyone specifically - this is general). I read a lot of things I think are critical and condescending and know-it-all for everybody on threads. I am not saying that is the writer's intent or even always the recipient's response - but it is my response. I have a different view of what is supportive. I am not saying I am right and others are therefore wrong, just that mine is not the same.
