but why savage? seems like a rather nice customer to me. He wrote a proper mail and even added a Screenshot and all in a polite manner.

Not savage enough.
Being told to submit a web mock-up design using fax, thats savage.
Or being scolded thru the phone, in the middle of the nite, by a client, becoz a button didnt work when he try to click and navigate around the website. It was a jpeg mockup. Thats, hardcore. -
@ShotgunSurgeon He has access to the data, so he could have checked himself before sending me the e-mail. As I am busy with another project, I had to be quick in looking his issue and replying, which might not be very polite. Also it takes about an hour when I usually write/reply, so I can choose proper wording and tone. 😅
@faizalheesyam That's around the top of the savage scale! Luckily nothing similar has happened to me so far!

I received the following e-mail today:
Hey, XYZ! Could you please check the following in your web application. The data do not show correctly. Could it be a bug?
[insert attached screenshot with said "bug"]
My reply:
Hey, ABC! It is not a bug. You uploaded the data into the wrong table. 😊
