You: *2 day old account*
Also you: *comes into linux gaming community and starts insulting everyone*
You're definitely the pinnacle of chill mate :)
Look at it this way: You just entered a clubhouse. Nobody there knows you. You have not yet put any time or work into maintaining the club or into establishing your credentials and social status among the members. After entering, you immediately make a controversial (and arguably badly-researched) statement.
Would you not expect to be much less likely to get away with a stunt like this than a long-established club member?
He's telling you that your social skills are terrible.
That may work on Reddit where you're effectively anonymous and people upvote edgy or outrageous comments but in smaller spaces if you're being an asshole then expect people to treat you like an asshole.
It's not some special club mate, and I definitely never said you needed my permission, I have no idea what you're going on about. It's literally just down to "this is likely a troll account because it's new". People who say inflammatory garbage and get themselves banned from communities go make more accounts to get around the bans. Considering how unpleasant you've continued to be, I'm leaning pretty heavily towards you being such a person. That's kind of the entire reason my client, Voyager (and many other clients) shows me the age of an account when it's younger than 30 days.
