I said they were provided. They were. No hunting or digging is needed. The link Shodan provided takes you directly to them-- they are in the OP of that thread, not scattered about in the thread. Click, click and you’re there. That’s “hunting”?
But if your looking for an excuse, any excuse, to be a Der Trihs apologist, I guess that will do…
I am not in any way an apologist for Der Trihs. I am pointing out that you were less than clear on where those links could be found.
I do agree with Der Trihs (and BigT) about one thing: the specific post that started this thread was not threadshitting as that term is normally used on this board. It was, however, a hijack, an unfair representation of Bricker’s position, an unnecessarily vitriolic comment only intended to inflame, and a textbook case of being a jerk. So debating over the name of the rule violation is worthless noise, the Warning was fully justified and well due.
The fact that some people have a longstanding dispute with the moderators over how Der Trihs has been moderated (or not) in the past does not change one iota the validity of this act of moderation, and the continued bitching and whining is this thread is pathetic and, IMO, counterproductive.
Solid and fair moderating. 
I’d call it squishy but just.
Generally I feel that Der T argues cleanly and uncompromisingly, but the comments in question were dirty and the defense of them deluded.
I’m not sure what your intent is with the reference to “clear and uncompromising”, but those attributes are not at all in conflict with “dirty”.
“Fuck you, you goat raping bastard. I won’t change my mind no matter what facts you shit out of your moth” is clear and uncompromising.
The attributes that lead to reasoned debate are “fact based arguments and a willingness to change one’s position when presented with new facts, as well as a willingness to admit error”.
My moth is shitting facts again? I think there’s an ointment for that, hold on…
If I had a moth that could shit facts, I’m sure all my arguments would fly.
Hey, if moths had wings, they could fly!
So does a five-year-old who wants Fudgesicles for dinner. Intransigence is not always a virtue.
Actually, he said “cleanly and uncompromisingly”, so that kinda is at odds with “dirty”.
Not that anybody has to agree with his opinion of Der T’s posts.
(Der T - I like that. Say it out loud. Go ahead, I’ll wait.)
You know who else valued cleanliness?
OK, we can close the thread now! 
Alf?
Rather than pursuing jugulars, I’m going to move on.
Good formulation. I would emphasize, “Incorporating new and possibly conflicting facts, as opposed to deflecting them.” That’s often what separates the strongest posts from the rest. Deflection is easy.
Mr. Clean?
God sure didn’t, always intruding on his space.
I thought you were sarcastically Godwinizing.
I was. But Miller threw me a curveball and I had to improvise.
