You broke the site guidelines egregiously with this comment. Posting insinuations like this without evidence (no, patterns that you think you see in downvotes are not evidence) is seriously against the rules here, for reasons I've explained hundreds if not thousands of times over many years.
I feel like "egregiously" is a little unfair, absent an aggravating factor. However, you're absolutely right, I'm absolutely wrong, and I apologize. This was an emotional and low-effort comment and I wish I could take it back. Mea culpa.
You're right - "egregiously" was excessive. Sorry about that bit and thanks for the open-minded reply. That is rare in cases like this so I appreciate it.
