I’ve read it, and I get what you’re saying. But seriously, how many rude remarks does somebody have to make in an IMHO thread about talking to pets before it’s reasonable to moderate that behavior as threadshitting? I think one comment is plenty, depending on what it is. I’d say he acted like a jerk throughout the thread, and not just in the posts that were moderated.
pseudotriton ruber ruber may feel he was simply disagreeing with the OP, which is fair game, but he was consistently nasty throughout the entire thread. I don’t think ‘he didn’t literally mean she should blow her cat’ is an adequate defense for that.
