Oh of course, but I was referring to what you'd said to JYL.. "maybe you want to ask yourself that question"
To me that was asking her to question why these posts had the power to upset her.
And I think some things are upsetting, there was absolutely nothing personal about Deneb in my response, except that I do agree that in certan cases a reprimand seems to help push the process of extinguishing certain behaviour along a bit, and I'm not against it.
Villifying a person is different.
