Which personal attack? You mean calling out americans? How is that personal? You also going to ban everyone here who posts disparaging generalizations about europeans? Because so far you haven't been.

As for

> Are you a shill, a troll or just an upset fanboy?

This is a genuine question, not an attack.

"Grow up", for starters.

> Are you a shill, a troll or just an upset fanboy?

That's a loaded question and easily enough to count as an attack. This is not a close call!
