I honestly have better things to do than write essays on a forum of which provide me no real value other than an ego stroking. Could have fooled me. (zing!) Couple of ideas: - Proxy performance isn't enough to determine intentional performance degradation. Maybe that is something they're trying, but don't jump to conclusions just yet. - I'd imagine nobody has anything out for you personally, but more likely is that your account has been flagged by the software. - I believe Reddit does something similar to handle spam (not the performance degradation part). - PG said they were experimenting so perhaps you got punished by accident. Or maybe it is working as intended and if you quit with the crappy comments your situation will improve. :)
