The point is, is that is is unfair to allow positive comments about X but yet not allow legit criticism of X.
But it’s not unfair. The reasoning why they don’t want active users to criticize banned users is because said banned users can’t personally rebut to defend themselves.
Which if the ban was justified, is their own fault.
And SW was not telling me off. He was giving fair warning in advance of anything actionable that we might say, while trying to be civil and friendly about it.
It looked to me like he was trying to politely tell you to shut up about Frink.
To brand it as “X” suggests that all negative criticism is created equal,
I believe in my initial post on the subject, I made clear that I understood that there needs to be some limits like no name calling and no personal attacks and whatnot in regards to those that can’t defend themselves.
and that allowing non-negative conversation makes them hypocrites, which is not true.
No, I just think that either both negative and positive comments should be allowed or both should be disallowed and not one allowed and the other not.
