My comments were not direct at you, they were directed at the title of the article, and as a thread starter you should expect many such comments that are not specifically addressing you but the content. Let me also suggest that a better strategy for maintaining your preferredfocu might be to just ignore comments that stray from that rather than trying to shepherd them all into your coral.

However, it’s perfectly fine for you to point out the focus of the article and to say in response that it is what YOU would rather discuss.

But when I gave a reply that clearly indicated that I was commenting on the title, your first response to me and was “Did you read the article”? That goes beyond stating your preference and implies so wrongdoing on my part for daring to comment on anything other than the article in totality, which you later reinforced with your replies that followed.

Stick to what you want to talk about - that’s fine. I won’t scold you for your preferences, so please don’t scold me for mine. If you don’t like the focus of the related topic I introduced in my reply, then better to just ignore it or to politely say that it doesn’t interest you.

Dear FRend, I had hoped we were done...Apparently not...well, we are definitely going to disagree...

I will, however, take your suggestion to not comment to you...Better still, I will be sure to not comment on your threads, and I suggest you start your own rather than add any more to this one.
