Title: NYT: We Sat Down With the 'Arrested Development' Cast. It Got Raw

Reason: User banned (3 days): Attempting to religitate prior ban

Thank you to all the people who have been kind and supportive of me in this thread. I guess the one day ban was either lifted or only lasted a few hours or something -- whatever the case, I think it's pretty ridiculous that I was banned for my posts in this topic. Unlike some other posters, I didn't personally attack anyone or try to dismiss their personal experiences. Just discuss the subject of the topic in a civilized manner using my own experiences to support my arguments. But it's clear that the moderation team here doesn't want a real discussion with differing viewpoints to take place, just a dog pile of judgment. One poster on the last page said I shouldn't have to "recede out of the internet", but I think it'd be unwise of me to stay here in this topic any longer -- because it's simply not worth it, I don't want to catch additional bans over this discussion. And I think my continued presence is derailing the thread, and for that I truly apologize. So I won't be replying (other than this general reply) to each of the people who quoted me, even though I normally would. On the actual topic, the last thing I'll say is that Bateman's apology is about the best anyone could reasonably hope for. I don't know what else people would want out of him at this point. And now I'll let you guys get back to your dog pile.
