Are you talking about this thread?

I try to closely follow those lists, and that's the only thread I recall
that even slightly rings a bell from your description, however it's not
an accurate description (you were the one who misread the specs there; I
tried to help bridge the gap). I recall the interaction was pretty tame
though, so maybe you're talking about something else. Perhaps a link for
context if I got it wrong?
