"....Site administrators may delete any comments or replies deemed inappropriate as spam, trolling, threats, offensive, redunant, unproductive, etc.

Here are some general guidelines for new stories:

If you are making a brief comment about a current issue, please make sure there is not already a thread on that issue. Redundant posts may be deleted.

Please avoid posting long passages of text pasted from other sources or just links, especially if you do not include reaction and commentary of your own. These unoriginal posts may be deleted....."

With respect, commenting on the reason for the boycott may be stupid, time will tell, but no less so than than periodically citing forum rules that are rarely, or selectively, enforced.

Regardless of the end result, Hubble and I refuse to dignify trolling and flame baiting with our further participation.

Of course other users are free to do what they will, and will participate and follow our suggestion, or not, in their own way.
