This post makes absolutely no sense without some context. Fortunately, we have forum features that allow us to search for other posts made by the same user. This guy's made 10 posts, including this one.
Four of them involve a flame-out in his YAFVP post in the CIP forum. He thought it was stupid that hill orcs got +2 to invocations, and got unreasonably upset when responses ranged between mild disagreement and complete disinterest. He didn't bother explaining why he thought this, and honestly I have no idea what the problem with hill orcs having good invocations might be.
One of them involved a thread in the CIP forum that he started that was basically a backhand slap against the Abyss, since apparently most of his characters don't find the exit. It ended up getting no replies because it was too vague to lead to any interesting discussion and the immediate problem had already been solved, so there was no point in giving advice.
Another involved a thread in Game Design that proposed a weapon brand called Force, which would knockback a target whenever it procs. Not the first time that's come up, but certainly a reasonable idea for a relatively new member. The response wasn't hostile, but it wasn't really positive either, and the OP did not post in that thread again.
Three of the posts were complaining about mountain dwarves being removed. I'd suspect that this was the main factor in the OP's inexplicable recurring hostility.
I'm going to give this guy the benefit of the doubt and assume that he is twelve years old, because twelve-year-olds often have this sort of difficulty expressing themselves effectively. Unfortunately, that means I can't really help very much unless he slows down, expresses himself clearly, and reviews his posts before hitting submit to see if a relative stranger is going to understand the context he's posting from. He could very well have some good ideas and useful experiences, but we'll never find out unless he can present them coherently.
