I'm glad to help, if I can. One final note: any comment about you getting downvoted is contrary to the guidelines, in particularly your comments about members piling on or brigading. I'm almost positive that's why your responses to me have been downvoted. If you think there's abuse, do not comment, and contact the mods. That's the best advice I can offer. Good luck!

I don't have a solution, but "contact the mods" is not it.

Edit: But huge props to gzpm Edit: No, I'm happy to talk to the mods. But really this has been not serious. It's about -20 now. Edit3: I will contact them tomorrow. But again I don't have much to stand on. I called out a user etc etc etc.

Does this mean you're not willing to contact the mods? Or something else? If you think you're being treated ubfairly, why not?

If you're not prepared to work within the community standards and framework, I can't imagine you're going to have a pleasant Or productive experience. I can only recommend taking extra care in commenting.

No, I will if it happens again. As you said, sometimes pile ons happen because of breaking norms.
