alt Hacker NewsThat's unfair. I'm going unfairly called out even though I stand by my beliefs and I'm only trying to defend myself. How are the replies to my comments in any way acceptable and according to HN guidelines???
"Put your money where your mouth is", come on. That's not acceptable and it's provoking. How can you defend bullies like this?

I specifically responded with an identical reply to the other main commenter you were arguing with, who was also breaking the rules.
Still, someone else breaking the rules doesn't make it ok for you to do so, and pointing the finger at others instead of taking responsibility is not a helpful response.

I'm not a mod (and I flagged the comment you had originally replied to so I'm on "your side"), but I'd apply "two wrongs don't make a right" here.
I think the feedback is fair. I'd say just take it (the feedback) and move on.
