    This is why I tend not to reply. I make a post and if someone replies with “actually you’re wrong” I just move on with my day. I’ve never seen a reply chain 12 comments deep where the two people arguing come to a reasonable compromise.

      I tend to reply more often than is probably good for me not because I care about changing that person’s mind, but instead the others that are reading.

      Welcome to the internet. I don’t see the point of banning someone for a post that no one will ever read again after 12 or so hours.
