Narrative:

Problem arose after landing at scottsdale and being handed off to ground. Traffic, both air and ground, was very heavy. After touchdown, I was advised by tower 'exit runway soonest ramp, to clear for departing traffic. Taxi to ramp and monitor ground 121.6.' there were 2 planes in the pattern behind me and a private jet waiting to depart. I exited runway 21 on taxiway A7. As I turned onto the common taxiway off taxiway A7, I had 121.6 already on the radio. As my nose reached the common taxiway, I was shouted at by ground that I had no clearance to taxi. I requested clearance to taxi with 'progressive' to the GA ramp for parking. I was told by ground to get off his taxiway as soon as possible and contact ground 122.95 for instructions. This I did. After parking, I turned on a handheld navigation/communication and listened to the tower. They repeatedly gave instructions to landing pilots to 'taxi to park, monitor ground on point six.' I have flown many class C and D arrs and have always received a 'hold short' call if taxiing was unsafe. I did not receive a hold short instruction at scottsdale and suggest the tower change their wording on radio instruction to landing pilots. I felt my judgement was correct given the radio message received.

Title: PA32 PLT HAD UNPROFESSIONAL GND CTLR HANDLING AT SDL.

Narrative: PROB AROSE AFTER LNDG AT SCOTTSDALE AND BEING HANDED OFF TO GND. TFC, BOTH AIR AND GND, WAS VERY HVY. AFTER TOUCHDOWN, I WAS ADVISED BY TWR 'EXIT RWY SOONEST RAMP, TO CLR FOR DEPARTING TFC. TAXI TO RAMP AND MONITOR GND 121.6.' THERE WERE 2 PLANES IN THE PATTERN BEHIND ME AND A PVT JET WAITING TO DEPART. I EXITED RWY 21 ON TXWY A7. AS I TURNED ONTO THE COMMON TXWY OFF TXWY A7, I HAD 121.6 ALREADY ON THE RADIO. AS MY NOSE REACHED THE COMMON TXWY, I WAS SHOUTED AT BY GND THAT I HAD NO CLRNC TO TAXI. I REQUESTED CLRNC TO TAXI WITH 'PROGRESSIVE' TO THE GA RAMP FOR PARKING. I WAS TOLD BY GND TO GET OFF HIS TXWY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND CONTACT GND 122.95 FOR INSTRUCTIONS. THIS I DID. AFTER PARKING, I TURNED ON A HANDHELD NAV/COM AND LISTENED TO THE TWR. THEY REPEATEDLY GAVE INSTRUCTIONS TO LNDG PLTS TO 'TAXI TO PARK, MONITOR GND ON POINT SIX.' I HAVE FLOWN MANY CLASS C AND D ARRS AND HAVE ALWAYS RECEIVED A 'HOLD SHORT' CALL IF TAXIING WAS UNSAFE. I DID NOT RECEIVE A HOLD SHORT INSTRUCTION AT SCOTTSDALE AND SUGGEST THE TWR CHANGE THEIR WORDING ON RADIO INSTRUCTION TO LNDG PLTS. I FELT MY JUDGEMENT WAS CORRECT GIVEN THE RADIO MESSAGE RECEIVED.
