It's not cool to be a dick to your waiter either and they get paid to take your shit.
All of the IMM staff are volunteers, which makes them in no way obligated to put up with your needless shitheadedness. IMM in question was more than reasonable and you went out of your way to be a jerk for the sake of a shitty log that just made you look like an idiot. Cmmon, man.
