This is a warning, please do better in the future; continued violation of Forum norms may result in a temporary ban.
I want to be clear that this warning is in response to the tone and approach of the comments, not the stances taken by the commenter. We believe it’s really important to be able to discuss all perspectives on the situation with an open mind and without censoring any perspectives. We would like Sabs to continue contributing to these discussions in a respectful way.
I don’t see how the third comment is objectionably ‘harsh’? It is a straightforward description of how many conventional financial firms operate, relevant to the topic at hand, combined with (accurately) calling the parent comment nonsense. Is the objection that it contains a swear word? If that is the rule it should probably be made explicit. (Also, ‘harsh’ does not appear in Guide To Norms, with good reason, as the truth can be harsh!)
The moderation team has noticed a trend of comments from Sabs that break Forum norms. Specifically, instances of rude, hostile, or harsh language are strongly discouraged (and may be deleted) and do not adhere to our norm of keeping a generous and collaborative mindset.
