I can't belive Danny got a vacation for that..
It's an acumulated score, not a one time thing. Too many kids these days seem to run their mouths of without thinking twice about what they are actually saying, if what they are saying is actually factual and how that may affect the feelings of other human beings. And too often just post their thoughts as facts and then use that to justify rude comments directed at the developers. Often thus totally unfounded.
If one is factual and polite, there is no problem. If one just assumes things and then flames people on the wrong grounds, it is very rude and unacceptable. And it certainly is here, where people are after all a guest of Vstep. There are other ways to go about expressing unhappiness with a product.
And if the same tone is set in too many posts and subtle hints don't work, there is a risk that a read only ban is issued to get the message across. After which we hope the posts of the recipient will be a little more factual and a little less rude.
I hope that clears it up for you.

@ rest: Yes, maybe politics are not really the wisest thing to discuss here. The unwritten rule usually says that political and/or religious discussions have no place on a forum such as this.
And the weather here.. slight bit of snow, temperature around freezing, not too bad.
