So, what you're saying is that someone insulted you, did so anonymously, and you're outraged that two people thought such a simple tease didn't merit being deleted from the site.

Your point would carry a lot more weight if you'd responded to the Anonymous Monk who teased you instead of considering a node for deletion because it hurt your feelings. Get over yourself: as you say, "I'm here to remind Monks who think that the Monastery is a Utopia, that it is not. It's a Dystopia."

That means that you're going to get teased now and again. Especially so if you say things people think are silly. You liken the vote not to silence an anonymous insult to supporting the KKK. Well, I can think of many a dangerous dictatorial regime that liked to silence voices of dissent, as well -- yet no one is calling you a Nazi because you want to silence someone who mocked you. I see a disparity here.

I also find it hilarious that you are ranting at the entire Monestary because two people voted to keep a node that you found distasteful. Move on: you've wasted enough bandwidth on this, don't you think?

Yoda would agree with Perl design: there is no try{}
