Would you please stop breaking the site guidelines? You've been doing it repeatedly and we've asked you to stop many times. Here are another couple of recent cases:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42753571

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42589242

I really don't want to ban an account that's been around so long and has contributed many good things in the past, but it's also not ok to degenerate to this level. Also, it sets a terrible example for other users.

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and remembering the intended spirit of the site and sticking to it, we'd be grateful.

p.s. I have no idea whether the GP was right or wrong, but it doesn't matter. We need you (i.e. any commenter here) to follow the guidelines regardless of how wrong someone is or you feel they are.
