When I say something that violates the terms of services of 2+2, I'll stop responding to you. You are free to put me on ignore. Other people read your posts, and they are free to read mine. If you feel I have done something that violates the terms, report me to a moderator. I have only attacked your ideas and arguments/talking points.
