You are discourteous

Well, that certainly wasn't my intention. Please go ahead and downvote me if you feel that way.

He don't wanna kick you out...

I wasn't taking anything he said personally; as far as I can tell, there's nothing he can do to actually kick me out, and I don't think he even wants to do that in the first place. I do believe he's arguing in good faith.

That said, I do believe strongly that, in order for communities to grow and continue being useful and productive, they need to welcome new members now and then; and I think that nyan_sandwich's original solution sets the barrier to entry way too high.

You're too kind. Of course I already did. I just wish you'd somehow split up the things I wanted to respond.

Aside, I didn't downvote the post I quoted and I don't know why someone would. Maybe because we're speaking pointlessly? Maybe because they thought I was trolling and you were feeding me?
