Agree completely. I also think it's helpful to the community when we get to respond to these people - as long as we do it respectfully.
We have had a lot of strangers in our house recently, and most have been good but there have been some obvious shit-stirs who just want to spew hate or start fights.
I agree completely. Respectfully is the key word here.
The original *trigger* response to the original poster was not made in good faith. It was full of sarcastic triggers and its a shame because it didn't need to be that way. The OP holds responsibility still for letting it spiral into the abyss, but provocation was clear as day and I hope @Vitani also got a warning of sorts. That kind of poorly disguised mockery is unacceptable. Every ban like this is a sad one, considering the OP was not a complete disaster and had some comprehensive things to say.
