Could you please stop breaking the site guidelines? You've been doing it a lot, e.g. by including swipes in your comments, posting in the flamewar style, etc. We ban accounts that do those things. It's not what this site is for, and it destroys what it is for.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

What's the issue here? Didn't you see OPs reply? He/she didn't feel flamed. Why did you?

From a moderation point of view the issue is that you've been repeatedly breaking the site guidelines.

In the case of the GP comment I think the point where you crossed the line was "I love how you just keep on sounding like an advertisement just before you repaet again that you are NOT an Apple-Fanboy". That's the sort of flamewar swipe we definitely don't want here. How the other person feels about it in any given case isn't dispositive; the problem is the effect such comments have on the ecosystem as a whole.

Flamebait comments are still flamebait even if other people resist taking the flamebait.
