i dont see a problem with your post though. its a valid point to mine and ustwos off-the-topic posts.

No problem at all - and my post was not a criticism of your PoV either.

Also, no problem.
Further, I like the front porch analogy - the front porch needs to be welcoming and open. When there is a troll or a know it all or a bully bossing the rest of the porch around, then the porch rapidly gets empty and so I concur with efforts to curtail such behaviour (while allowing for a bit of "needling" and passionate debate).
Turn the patio lanterns on, switch on the bug zapper, play some tunes, and bring some more ice for the cooler! The beer is getting warm!
