Equivocation fallacy. Can't say you weren't warned.

It's difficult to have an interesting conversation with people in so much of a hurry to misunderstand what's being said.
At no point did I claim you were wrong simply -because- you used a fallacy. I had other, better, reasons for that. You are bad at this and I've become bored.
"I'm not terribly interested in following this advice" is a lot different from "this advice is not appropriate for the site." Rejecting something doesn't mean it wasn't relevant.
