Ok mods (and audience), I'm sorry for this tedious subthread. I'm going to try extra hard not to mention downvotes anymore. As for you, I don't know what the deal is, but if you feel like attacking me in the future please understand my comment first. EDIT: Okay, listen. The reaction was to this part: "but you have to at least make a minimal effort to understand how the whole thing works and what the abuse potential is for your suggestions." That felt like a personal swipe, combined with the rest of the comment that read as "hey you're offtopic and didn't you write a script to hide downvotes anyway." It felt like that was written solely to put me on the defensive. So -- principle of charity -- I'd rather assume that this was all a miscommunication rather than malicious. The spat is tedious, I like your writing, so for the second time here is an olive branch.
