If you want to comment here, have the fortitude not to be thrown off by trollish comments. Otherwise you make the site even worse than it already was.

For example, your comment breaks the site guidelines worse than the GP did, because you went into personal attack. That will get your account banned here, so please don't do it again.

My apologies if I offended anyone. I won't do it again.

But why would it get me banned? I decided to call her out cos it would have a completely different tone to it if a male / man made that statement about other men.


Because it was a personal attack. That's several rungs of lowness you stooped to, and it cancels out whatever rightness there was in your point. Please don't be that way, at least not here.


Ok. How do I delete my comment? I can't even edit it?? I feel bad now and would like to delete my comment.


It's dead now, which means it's mostly not visible. Only users with 'showdead' set to 'yes' in their profile can see it.


Ok. Thank you :)
