There are a number of FT members like yourself that dismiss certain posts by deflecting to CoC or other rules and policies.

No amount of evidence will change your mind and you fail to cite specific, relevant details to support your claims. Vague references add nothing to this conversation. You can think that's argumentative all you want.
