I don't feel it was particularly childish-- I would argue it's 
straddling the lines of the charter:

This is NOT a forum for journalists to pick up leads, *sales people to
sell things*, end-users to pester their ISP, or bush lawyers to posit
their beliefs. Such behaviour will not be tolerated (see "Moderation"
below).

I'm happy to stand corrected if this isn't the case, however.
