> It is more that I took silence (on that issue - I mentioned the hypocracy idea twice before being blocked)... I took silence as the absence of disapproval. And I took the bit I was blocked for to be a shorthand for the idea I had expressed twice (in the absence of disapproval) before.That's what I was trying to get at. How, given that you'd basically said the same thing before were you able to protect yourself from/avoid the possibility altogether of, the block. You couldn't possibly and nor could any other babbler in the same situation.
> I don't know... I do believe you do your best... But I guess I think you could be a little more careful (aka hesitant to block) when there are more charitable interpretations available...
> I don't know.
Me neither >:-/
> Sorry :-(Nothing to be sorry about, you're just trying to make sense of something in order to protect yourself in future and in order to feel safe. Nothing wrong in that.
