Cool story bro, but this isn't a democracy. You don't get to negotiate with the staff.
That being said, I'll humor you about the situation. This isn't the first time he's done something like this, and two of us had to warn him about spamming the forum and PMs (I think I got 6 or 7 within an hour) that were just repeats of the same message, followed up by him becoming very angry and "pissed off" that no one was answering him right away.
There's a big difference between what you're describing and the situation with chris here. It's pretty well layed out in his posting history, which anyone can read.
Sorry I did not look at the full history. All I saw was the one other related post. So I stand corrected. With that history the OP deserved to have hands slapped. Those are breaches of etiquette in almost any forum going.
