"You're salty" posts are against the rules, so just don't do them. Instead, explain why you think the OP's reaction is unreasonable (which I think is the point), or refrain from commenting.

*shrugs* I don't really have much more to say. I think it's hilarious any time someone makes such a big deal out of nothing, cries foul when things slightly don't go their way, and think they have some big point about consumerism and choice and company greed or whatever. 

You are right, though. I probably shouldn't have said anything. Honestly, nobody should have. "Waaah, I don't like a thing they're doing and I don't understand how business works so I'm going to throw a tantrum" Isn't really a good starting point for any debate or discussion. He's entitled to do whatever he wants, I'm not here to say he can't chose to not pick up a PS5 (Honestly, more availability for me that way), but it's about as inane a stance to take as 'I've decided to take a shit in the downstairs bathroom because it's bigger! IT's not as close, but the toilet seat is more comfy!" Like, sure, shit wherever you want, but I have no idea why he or anyone else felt the need to share that info. 

I HAD something to say about it, but then deleted it and left only the simple comment subtly calling him immature and that his tantrum entertained me. 

That said, I didn't know 'you're salty' posts weren't allowed. I won't comment in this thread unless I have something of value to say. Got it. 

This feels like despite being directed at me, it's actually being addressed to the OP, and is along the same lines as the original post led to the in thread warning.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that your intention was to clarify your earlier post to me, and not to indirectly attack the OP. In the future, if you want to comment on an in thread warning, including this post, please do so by PMing the mod. This way, there will be no confusion. Doing otherwise may lead to further moderator action.
