Is it really free-speech if trolls and impertinent persons cannot express themselves freely via this communication medium ?
If free-speech by definition applies itself to humans, and if humans by definition are rational individuals capable of intelligent thoughts, are trolls worthy of free-speech?

Doesn't "impertinent" mean a thought or action that is out of its place and is not relevant to the context in witch it was made, nor does it contribute?

Does me asking about a 10,000 Bitcoin violate something? I thought I was hinting he should buy me one, or was I wrong?

I would suggest that there is a tendecy for some to become snippy and mean, even in threads which are supposed to be harmless and fun and I think that is a shame, don't you?

Perhaps you interpreted as unfriendly what was simply a mildly-sarcastic thought experiment joke?

No but that is a clever and humourous suggestion, is it not?
