My message was about you. You have value here but you’re also a part of every single thread that’s only value is putting somebody else down. If I engaged you in conversation and then stopped I wouldn’t feel it appropriate to just continue the thread with somebody else talking shit about that person.

Imagine in this thread he responded to me and instead of engaging you anymore I just started talking shit about you with him instead. You might not care that much, but I doubt it would make you feel good and it would make me look bad.
