I feel sorry for the children raised by these HN commentators. Fuck me what a bunch of prudes.

  Maybe so, but could you please stop posting flamebait and/or name-calling and/or unsubstantive comments? You've been doing it a ton, unfortunately, and we have to ban such accounts. It's not what this site is for, and it destroys what it is for. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

    This is an off-topic response to my on-topic reply, and you've mischaracterised my post history to boot. I can't see anything in the guidelines about issuing threats but IMHO you shouldn't be doing that either. Otherwise keep up the good work!

      You're right that moderation comments are off topic, as well as tedious and repetitive. (They're even more tedious to write than they are to read, if that helps at all.) And yes, they sometimes break the site guidelines in other ways too. I try to keep them neutral but I don't always get that right, and am happy to take suggestions for improvement. Nevertheless, your comments have been breaking the site guidelines badly—it's not a close call! The reason I post replies like I did here is to give people that information so they have a chance to change; that seems better than just banning an account outright. I'm sorry if it came across as a threat. My intention is to persuade you to use HN in the intended spirit—I don't want to ban you.
