Using the dollar sign is effectively an insult. Just like if I was to refer to Apply as crApple. How is it not childish to resort to name-calling like that?

If I starting my reply with "Look lhnz, you moron, ..." would you not downvote me or defend me if others did so?

I downvote people for things like M$ because I think that name-calling and inflammatory remarks aren't conducive to a worthwhile discussion.
