> why on earth do you feel that you're an authority on how people _will_ behave?

I am not an authority on how people will behave; it was simply a prognosis. I am sorry, if I somehow implied otherwise.

> don't judge everyone else by your awfully low standards of professionalism

Generally, if someone has horrible personal antics, it's very likely they'll carry those into other aspects of their life, even GitHub or work. We're only human.

Well, consider yourself lucky, then. Not everyone's had the benefit of such experiences. I myself haven't had horribly bad ones either. Although, I know people to whom it happened and how it affected their general emotional well-being; it was horrible watching them slowly deteriorate because they were in such a position.

> grow up.

Eventually, I might.
