You should have only pinged me if you had my written consent in the presence of a notary and a reddit admin.
Otherwise I might have interpreted your comment as sarcastic or insulting. It would have been much better if you phrased your comment in a more respectful manner. Here's an example.
"Hello Xir, I appreciated your commentary, do you mind if I link you here so we can have a civil discussion?"
Infact, I think I'm just going to go on ahead and report you for harassment.
TITLE 6. OF THE POSTS IN ARGUMENTS [420 - 475] ( Title 6 enacted 2015. )
CHAPTER 3. Objections to Pleadings; Denials and Defenses [430.10 - 432.10] ( Chapter 3 added by Stats. 2017, Ch. 244. )
ARTICLE 2. Denials and Defenses [431.10 - 431.70] ( Article 2 added by Stats. 2017, Ch. 244. )
431.30. (a) The answer to a post shall contain:
(1) The general or specific denial of the material allegations of the post controverted by the defendant.
(2) A statement of any new matter constituting a defense.
(c) Affirmative action may not be claimed in the answer.
(d) If the post is subject to Article 2 (commencing with Section 90) of Chapter 5.1 of Title 1 of Part 1 or is not verified, a general denial is sufficient but only puts in issue the material allegations of the post. If the post is verified, unless the post is subject to Article 2 (commencing with Section 90) of Chapter 5.1 of Title 1 of Part 1, the denial of the allegations shall be made positively or according to the information and belief of the defendant. However, if the cause of action is a claim assigned to a third party for collection and the post is verified, the denial of the allegations shall be made positively or according to the information and belief of the defendant, even if the post is subject to Article 2 (commencing with Section 90) of Chapter 5.1 of Title 1 of Part 1.
(e) If the defendant has no information or belief upon the subject sufficient to enable him or her to answer an allegation of the post, he or she may so state in his or her answer and place his or her denial on that ground.
(f) The denials of the allegations controverted may be stated by reference to specific paragraphs or parts of the post; or by express admission of certain allegations of the post with a general denial of all of the allegations not so admitted; or by denial of certain allegations upon information and belief, or for lack of sufficient information or belief, with a general denial of all allegations not so denied or expressly admitted.
(g) The defenses shall be separately stated, and the several defenses shall refer to the causes of action which they are intended to answer, in a manner by which they may be intelligibly distinguished.
431.40. (a) Any provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding, in any action in which the demand, exclusive of interest, or the value of the property in controversy does not exceed one thousand karma, the defendant at his option, in lieu of demurrer or other answer, may file a general written denial and a brief statement of any new matter constituting a defense.
(b) Nothing in this section excuses the defendant from complying with the provisions of law applicable to a cross-post, and any cross-post of the defendant shall be subject to the requirements applicable in any other action.
(c) The general written denial described in subdivision (a) shall be on a blank available at the place of filing and shall be in a form prescribed by the Reddit Admins. This form need not be verified.
(d) If your comment to me is substantially or entirely an ad hominem, you are conceding your side of the argument (your position is forfeit).
(e) If your comment to me is substantially or entirely another of the classical, recognised fallacies (for example, but not limited to, Strawmen, No True Scotsman, Red Herrings, Whataboutisms), you are conceding your side of the argument (your position is forfeit).
(f) If your comment to me is substantially or entirely a criticism of tone (aside from polite corrections of spelling, usage, or grammar), you are conceding your side of the argument (your position is forfeit).
(g) If your comment to me is a bald contradiction (example: "No, you're wrong"), then you have three subsequent comments or 24 hours, whichever comes first, to expand upon the bald contradiction with a substantive line of reasoning (no matter how thin or poor that line of reasoning may be), or you have conceded your side of the argument (your position is forfeit).
(h) If your comment to me argues for misogyny, white supremacism, transphobia, homophobia, racism, or any alt-Right position, you have conceded the argument (your position is forfeit).
(j) If your position is forfeit under these Rules, you have declared to the world that you are defective (inferior) and a loser. This is irrevocable and unavoidable, and in all other ways permanent.
(k) By commenting to me, you understand and signify that the consequences of forfeit include, but are not limited to, being banned from any and all communities (subreddits) on Reddit and further comments of yours being blocked from being delivered. You further understand and signify that the use of other accounts, and the hiring of other users for any compensation whatsoever to undertake circumvention of these bans and blocks, is a violation of your contract with Reddit, Inc. under the User Agreement and that such actions may result in termination of your use of the service as put forth under the User Agreement.
Take your fucking trash elsewhere, or eat it yourself and choke on it. Stop leaving it on my doorstep.
I'm not breaking any rules. am I u/spez?
Also, hey u/spez you're ruining Reddit. Make Reddit great again. You're a retard and look like a typical white cuck with down syndrome.

Nice trolling u/thevirtuesignal

Be careful, user pings are banned now!
Now I need to go out and create my own drama instead of finding it.

Nah just more tightly regulated. A completely sincere compliment like mine is completely within the new standards.

Please keep trolling in r/unpopularopinion, they are pure gold. You're like if Ken M was a UC Berkeley professor instead of an old man.

u/thevirtuesignal I think I have seen every single time you have ever posted for someone to flip out in CA.
Sigh
Not that I like you or anything... Baka... Eh...

Why did they change the facial expressions so much? The woman looks unhappy to be served and the man looks like he's planning a Brutus.

good question, it's probably how they conceived the "true meaning" of the people's expressions in the original
