That's not my point. There's a lot of history that you're missing out on with regard to the original posters suggestion.
In reference to the post of mine that you quoted, I was not referencing the decision to stop a topic or otherwise. I was correcting and advising a user against the type of post he/she was making. There's a type of tone that we don't want here.
