As you pointed out, you would be punishing all of us which might be a bit of an overkill. May I very respectfully request that you just ignore whatever annoyed you and keep contributing?

I agree with Schremmer. My impression was that the OP just wanted to stick with Acrobat, for whatever reason, and that his response struck the wrong tone and wasn't meant to be a argumentative. Why the person had to respond so forcefully when you asked a second time is certainly curious. FWIW, it really does seem that engineering TeXShop to work with the Adobe viewer is probably more trouble than it's worth, unless, say, the document is going to be used by people restricted to Preview, TeXShop, and Skim.
