but ty HN if you changed your hellbanning ways. I am no less inflammatory use no fewer cuss words, and very late at night am no less drunk than I have ever been, and yet I have not been hell banned in over a month.

This is a personal record and since I did not go on a zen voyage with the Beatles or the ghost of Steve Jobs or have any personal epiphany, I appreciate the slighter lighter, slightly longer tail approach to this problem if thats what it is.

I have had comments voted down within minutes and a few days later voted back up twice as much so as the dude would say, Im glad for a slightly less "reactionary" approach.

Maybe I missed something in your policy change or maybe I am just luckier now. But thanks, I like to be able to participate without having to always be sooper right or sooper politically correct or sooper right.
