Actually you've done this flamebait thing repeatedly:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14506129

This is not at all what HN is for. Such comments amount to trolling whether you intend to or not. We have enough trouble with flamewars already without people casually flinging lit matches into parched forests.

We've warned you twice now. If you don't change your comments to adhere to the community guidelines (i.e. to post civilly and substantively, or not at all), we will assume you don't want to use the site as intended and ban you. If you do want to use the site as intended, please (re)-read the following:

I agree that walterstucco's comments on such a topic are unsunstanciaive and overly dismissive.

However, I think that last comment should be taken in context with what it is replying to. Maybe a rule should be added to the guidelines:

"If you flag or downvote a comment for being uncivil, do not reply to it in kind"
