*grumbles* You do know that whining like this on the forum is usually frowned upon, right? If you have a problem with a moderator, or the way that the mod team is acting in general, then talk to the admin in charge of moderators! Everyone on this forum is (I hope) human, and thus, prone to mistakes.

I respect you for taking the time to post everything you did after this sentence but for the record the above doesn't work.  Some of my moderations are extremely harsh intepretations yet this is never factored into a decision.  Read my mod history if you like, I think it's harsh to simply hide behind the phrase you've done something vaguely similar before so you're banned when you see countless other posts not moderated that are worse.  Flaming and trolling seem to be the favoured ban reasons on here where as personally I think perhaps baiting should be enforced more often.  All too often people post "extreme" opinion as fact and then just watch the fall out, getting off without any moderation.

I think it unfair calling this a troll thread mind you, it's an opinion on technology that is unfinished so there very well might have been such issues in a earlier build that allowed the author to draw such conclusions.

What you wish abou baiting is quite difficult to enforce, the border between a part possibly baiting and the opposite one overreacting is quite vague, unless the bait is so blatant to become almost trolling.

Although a criterion quite logical could be that if only the most die-hard fans of the targeted platform react, it most probably wasn't a bannable bait, but a milder one if it actually even was.
