We don't get "offended", just concerned about safety and/or delaying the event from having to pick up half the course when someone gets a little too far out of shape. Most of us tolerate (some of us even appreciate) a well-executed mild drift. As long as you're in control, that's what we're mainly concerned with.

I didn't see your first run, but heard it was a little wild. I did see one of your last runs, and it looked nice. A little drift in appropriate places, but very smooth and controlled.

Someone will usually come talk to you if they have a concern. (dunno if they did in your case or not, I think I was breaking in a new timing crew at the time)

I think the wildest run of the day was that Caprice's first run!
