You may not have gone to that extent, but the way you respond to people's posts come off as being rude. Such as:

What's with all this caps stuff? Does that mean you're trying to emphasize a word or that you're just 'yelling' ? People might want to respond to someone who is genuinely just wanting to have a discussion, but no one likes to be batted down.

In my opinion, had you approached the topic with a cooler head and a lesser sense of "this is the almighty truth", then things would have gone over better. But you came out swinging saying that this is it, the facts - and the truth is that your sources could not be cited as entirely credible.

And perhaps those threads being closed and the response from the CD community is just telling you that maybe this isn't the best time to bring up certain topics. That seemed to be the case anyway.
