The Man is a great believer in not giving respect to people who haven't earned it. And in not allowing someone to be rude to him, or me, more than once. You all know the old line "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me". Unfortunately the op has been egregiously rude to a great many people in a very short time span and does not, by his rules, merit any respect from me. He picked me not because I go around smiling sweetly, lowering eyes to everyone around but because I am highly intelligent, highly judgmental and I saved my submission for someone who deserves it, for the only man I have ever met who comes up to my high standards. He likes the fact that I don't go around subbing to all and sundry, on or offline, he enjoys being the only one I view as worthwhile. And as I have said innumerable times, his rules prohibit me from submitting to anyone else. You want people to be polite to you, be polite to them first. But deservedly earning a reputation as an extremely immature person does not grant you immunity from being treated in exactly the same way you treat others. The way to make friends is to be one, something known since King Solomon's time.
