@InfiniteRecursion was correct.

@AstroCB - it was always an answer. Let me ask you: what did punishing Bert accomplish? I think it provided some instant punative gratification to the folks taking action against him. But how did it help Bert? Do you think he's any closer to using the site correctly? If anything, Bert probably thinks some folks on Stack Overflow are assholes. That's a well known problem here: Could we please be a bit nicer to new users?. — jww 2 mins ago

Then the proper action to take would be to comment rather than answer. Being nice to new users is necessary, but you're setting a bad example by using the site's mechanisms incorrectly. I'm not so sure that the sarcasm was very helpful, either. — AstroCB 32 secs ago
