[This](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=13121631&postcount=191) is bullshit. What did I state as a fact that wasn’t a fact? ---

It took you [two](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=13121670&postcount=47) fucking posts to say the same thing? Holy shit, you’d think after posting here 50,000+ times, you’d figure out the whole “Post New Thread” concept. ---

It needed to be said twice. I’m getting shit from a mod for posting facts. ---

No, not like that at all. If you disagree tell me what I said in those posts that wasn’t a fact. Even if it was opinion (which it wasn’t), why is it now against the rules to have opinions? Especially when those opinions were actually asked for. I was answering questions. ---

> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > It needed to be said twice. I’m getting shit from a mod for posting facts. Yes, that’s right. It happens all across this message board on a daily basis, posters getting attacked by mods any time they post a fact. “Opinions only!” roar the mods with gleeful tyranny. That’s got to be why you were told to stop shitting up that thread. Too many facts. ---

Am I seeing a precedent here that any question asked, in IMHO or MPSIMS, that has a factual nature loosely related to a legal question can only be answered by an approved professional? ---

Very well, I was given an inappropriate warning for saying things that were facts, which were on topic, wgich were not inflammatoryt and broke no rules. Many people in that thread were expressing contrary views to my own on the same subject, yet only I got shit for it. I believe the moderator was acting out of personal animus, not because of anything I actually did wrong. ---
