- mustacheemperor 5y agoI didn't refer to voting in my own comment, but maybe it would have been better not to engage the discussion any further with the user who had been flagged, since that engaged a discussion related to how their comments were flagged. Regardless, I am going to stop replying now - we are ourselves cluttering the discussion with a pointless quibble. >Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Cheers.

- pbaka 5y agoI was not downvoted, I was flagged and removed.
- quantumBerry 5y agoYes I'm not sure why that statement was made by mustacheemperor, particularly since it was both a lie and a violation of the rules of the website. That individual really should have been flagged and removed, not you.
- pbaka 5y agoDon't worry. I thickened my skin in the stormy waters of the RedditSea.
