still added completely nothing to the debate of the topic other than to try to derail it.

No. Not my intent. Just another conspiracy theory (get it? hehe).

But trying to lay waste to the topic by attacking 'conspiracy theorists' alone... or people that believe in conspiracies as the poster put it, is just a lame ad hominem derail attempt.

I'll put it much more plainly. I had my opinion of you, you posted something, I was in a dickish mood, you're often not a pleasant person to other people on this forum (contributed to me making the decision) so I posted my opinion of you. It was an off-topic post.
I don't know if Hillary is going crazy. I don't really care either. I will say that my opinion on it doesn't matter regardless because I'm simply not familiar with the topic enough. I am too ignorant of the topic to hold any valid opinion.
That's a very clear explanation.
In line with your argument: you are shifting the focus away from my criticism of you by focusing on an apparant logical fallacy that I made. It pushes me into defending myself personally, from my position, rather than the actual accusations being true or false. Therefore you are using an ad hominem*.
*Note: I don't think you are.
