There is not a single factual statement in that collection. Every one of them is a personal opinion of yours that might or might not be proven correct at some future time, but not one of them is factual.

Why should anyone address the other comments?

You were the OP.  
You were the one who wanted to “debate” whatever it was you think you came to debate.  
No one was Warned or even admonished for their behavior; we simply sought to get the thread to conform to something like a debate rather than a pissing contest. Since you were the author and principle participant and you were the one who misconstrued or mischaracterized the most posts by other posters, it seemed judicious to get you to avoid that self-destructive behavior.

Given that you were not Warned for this baseless attack on another poster:

I would think that you should be grateful that the “worst” action taken against you was to move your thread to the appropriate forum.

Note that you have no information about the posting habits of the other posters in that thread. You have no reason (aside from your own blind hatred) to presume that any other poster would spam some different board. So you used an insult for the sole purpose of avoiding providing an answer to a civilly asked question.
