Entirely unsurprising, but I’m still very tired

Just FYI, you can't really call for a "disengage" while also giving out a last paragraph of text in the argument. It's to stop people using the disengage rule as a kind of "parting shot" where they get the last word in.

Sorry this person is being so hostile and obtuse here. No idea why this thread in particular has multiple people on our instance blowing up so much. I guess people get weird when an internet celebrity makes a movie.

    Sorry I wasn't trying to abuse the disengage rule. I remember it from when I used to have a HB account, but its been a couple years. I legit didn't see the final line until a second read, at which point I asked for the disengage. I'll be more careful about it in the future. I was just really done with it, esp after reading the last little dig.

    I know you weren't trying to abuse the rule, it's usually pretty obvious when someone tries to abuse the rule, sorry if I sounded a bit hostile or accusatory there.

    No I appreciate it! I appreciate how important it is for HBs to maintain your community. Its imperfect sometimes, but its special. Thanks for chiming in, I was kinda put off by the other conversation. I know it is unusual behavior for HBs, but I think understandably, it got under my skin. Its nice to have a more friendly, relatable experience. Not hostile or accusatory at all!

    Yeah, that's mainly why I'm reaching out, I don't really want to do the "not all of us are like this, I swear!" thing, but this article seems to have brought out the worst in a few people here, sometimes people get so convinced that someone else is wrong, that they stop actually listening to what they're saying and stop trying to explain things to them, instead just getting mad at them and accusing them of saying things they aren't trying to say at all.
