While I don't know anything about your posting habits or whatnot, if your intention was to apologize you're not really doing that good of a job of it.

"I am sorry if you don't like my posting style"? This is basically saying "Sorry that there's something wrong with you that makes it so you can't accept someone like me." That's not an apology, that's passive-aggressive blame placement. The word "Sorry" does not an apology make.

I am sorry if you don't like this post but if you feel there is something wrong with your behavior, that is not how you apologize. Clearly you don't, though. While I'm not saying your behavior is in the wrong (I wouldn't know), you're not owning up and taking responsibility for it with this thread, you're just telling all of us that we're wrong for reacting in this way.
