Would you please stop posting in the flamewar style to HN? Your account unfortunately has been doing this repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.

To be clear, is "Anyone who doesn't like this should think about which members of their immediate family they want included in that 70,000 deaths." not also the same sort of flamewar style?

It's just double standard and selective enforcement.

I posted https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42614856 10 hours before you posted this.

Indeed it is, and I posted a similar moderation request to that user (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42614856) 37 seconds after posting the GP. I'm afraid I operate serially!

Oh, I don't know why it didn't show up for me.

Probably because its parent was flagged and therefore auto-collapsed.

You know what would actually help dang? Actually telling what exactly was flamewar about that comment instead of flexing the mod status and being biased and double standard with your selective enforcement bs just because some butthurt pussies here abuse the flag button? Talk to them instead to stop that abuse.

What exactly was flamewar about posting that countries of people aren't guinea pig cages? Go on, enlighten me please. What rule did that comment break? Did you even read my comment or are you swinging your hammer based on people abusing the flag button?

I know that a detailed personalized response is more helpful, but it's impossible to do that in every case because it's so time consuming. I could spend all waking hours doing nothing but that and still only cover a fraction of the explanations that people want—even before counting the fact that many explanations generate further questions that need further explanation. So we have to get by with shorthand most of the time.

In your case, I wasn't just responding to one comment but to your pattern of commenting; note the word "repeatedly" in my post. That's a reference to other comments like these, from the current thread:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42612129

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42612019

... as well as sundry others from other theads; here are some recent examples:

Your pattern of commenting includes inflammatory rhetoric, being aggressive to other users, cross-examination, name-calling, political and ideological battle, sneering at the rest of the community, and other things that clearly break the HN guidelines–and that's just with your current account.

It's true that your comment that I replied to (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42612748) was one of the lesser cases of this, but it still included inflammatory rhetoric ("and if my mom had balls she's be my dad" adds no information—it's just a putdown, and ditto for "America, Australia, Canada, Europe etc, aren't interchangeable lab cages of guinea pigs", since no one is arguing that they are). But the rest of that comment was just fine. The reason I replied there is not because I thought it was the worst case, but because it was a leaf node in the thread. The issue, as I said, is the pattern of your comments. You're breaking the site guidelines so often that your account is on the line of being one that we would ban, if not over the line.

Would you please stop posting flamewar comments to HN? We've had to ask you this so many times I don't even want to bother digging up all the links. As I'm sure I've said more than once before, we'll have to ban you if you keep this up, so please just stop.
