If you want to quibble over slight wording mistakes, perhaps you should examine your own wording from the original post(s), so that you can see the true meaning of those words. In the first post, it was pretty much "Crafty is programmed to be abusive", and then after Bob's response, it was "Bob is lying about Crafty's behavior", only not in so many words. Again, whether you meant it or not is irrelevant now, only that this is what your words said in those posts.
