@earnest You show respect for me by respecting the rules of the game. A game you said you wanted to be part of. By not doing so, all you're doing is showing disrespect and that will factor into the decisions of others to follow, I guess.

I'm not here to punish or coerce. I'm here to uplift and try to make things better for everyone and I thought I found a way that was simple and enjoyable for others. If I'm wrong, then all that's lost is my efforts to try and do something better around here.

Enjoy your upvote. It was honestly given as one friend to another.
If that's what friendship means to you, well then that's on you.
