1varangian is right here, Ragnarok. You have been a bit overly "target the poster, not their message" lately. Please stop that. I'm aware of the intricacies in discussion dynamics and some people's poor way of arguing. After multiple warnings I transition from trying to talk to them, warn them, and then the bans come flying, and I'm starting to hand those out these days, starting at one month.
Basically, I hope you learn from their mistakes and don't go down the same path. Not every discussion requires a devil's advocate if you don't have a point to make. And opinions that you don't agree with don't always need to be challenged or shut down. Behavior that disrupts a conversation isn't something I particularly like, and that goes either direction. I recently had a strong word with someone on Discord for insisting on trying to kill someone else's excitement for being hyped up about more customization options in character creation. Literally, no reason for them to do that, this individual just really likes creating characters - good for them and happy they got more things to play with.
