Well, when I was writing my comments, I had strived to think that I meant no offense. I believe that we were simply having a conversation. When I related your work to a parody, i deliberately said "whether intended or unintended" as to show that I understand already you don't consider it one. And also, even if you write 100 new chapters for Ant Tensei, it won't make a difference, because I said I found the relations in Chapter 6. In the comment I first wrote above, I said "I would consider it a..." ...seems to be..." So yes, I think I did think my words and wording out carefully and nicely =)

But now you say your offended by me giving that relation? What is there exactly to be offended about, its only a classification that I observered early that your work related to. I've read book reviews where critics say that an author's work is alikened to a parody in being perhaps satirical, but not claim that it is actually one. So its nothing to be offended about, and in fact, I like them because often they provide more depthful thought than what is being perhaps satirized.

I did not mean to be hostile, nor do I think my "opinons" are asssertions, because even if I see something as so, that does not mean I see it as a fact, and I do believe anything that I say is freely open to objection. So please refrain from calling my comments assertions if you will. I didn't find your comments before demeaning in the first place if thats what you intended, but you seem to have a hostile attitude to certain thoughts and opinions. What I'm saying is its a conversation and theres no need to be annoyed over opinions, because they are only opinions. Thats what is part of a conversation, moreover, a comment section.

In regards to the community, when someone makes an outrageous sort of comment, what do you expect others to do? To not say what they think? It is a comment section, and they have the right to comment whatever they think about what the latter had said. Let me open up your seemingly small world in regards to this issue, that internet bullying is a common occurence and really can't easily be avoided unless the chump who makes seemingly outrageous comments learns that others may not feel the same way at all, and to have a bit more respect when expressing opinions. My point is, the reforms you are expecting probably do not exist in the first place, since this is almost unavoidable. Therefore, your punishment may perhaps be only a trivial difference. Remember this is the internet, and these are strangers, and more often than not, there are trolls among strangers who will intentionally break your rules to make you annoyed or angry.

Also, who is to say that the chump feels hurt from what is being said back to them? Really, its the internet, and the sooner you realize that nothing can hurt you when you express your opinion, the more comfortable you feel about it.

If your really tired of it, just don't look at it, don't pay attention to it, and then you will be fine. However, I do agree with the need to intervene if one uses your own name as part of an argument, since you should be able to claim you are not involved or want them to stop commenting for that particular thread if you really are tiresome of it.

You claim that the community is in disarray, and that you are displeased with it for these dilemmas. The community being in disarray is true, I agree. As for me, I guess really, its up to you whether to keep translating or not, I was only stating earlier what you might want to think about.

The way your "punishing" it seems, the community, is sort of how I'd liken a parent punishing both a child did wrong, and a child who was wronged and simply reacted naturally offended by the other.

If you disagree entirely with me with the way I see things, that would alright as well, though, consider people who offer opinions or advice as people who might not bear ill-will towards you, and may only want to help you friend
