- rspeer 8y agoPointing out the uncivility in your reply is exactly what dang just did. You should not expect a sentence-by-sentence accounting of where you lost civility points. That's not how it works.
- dang 8y agoThat's true in general, but sometimes it's easier than others.
- dang 8y agoYou used personally acerbic language all the way through that comment, getting more abusive as you went along ("because you diligently?", "and also you have?", "Oh nice", "get out of your bubble", "your cringeworthy remark", "I'm sure you are used to losing your loved ones"). You cross into bannable offence when you do that, so please don't do it again.
- axiom92 8y agoThanks, I see your point. I see how I could have been less caustic and personal in the choice of words and phrases. I don't think it ever got to the point of getting the label of being abusive. Again, I appreciate you taking out the time to point out your concerns with the comment. I've taken a note and will be more mindful of the policy.
