In case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm sure not battling over comments getting dumped. Somehow, I still have better things to do than to chat with CC over everything. 


There are two ratings: (1) whether the comment is "good" or not, which I presume means to most people whether or not they feel it is okay or even compelling and/or whether or not they agree with it. It doesn't matter too much except for some place in an algorithm that we may not yet know about; and (2) whether or not the post is "civil", which is of course rated in many different ways by people as well. 


I'm not sure how me saying "I didn't say that he was zapping yours" could be considered unfair by anyone, but it does help explain to me the problems we have in communicating. So a bit more information about you to tuck away. If that is an example of your rating of "fairness" which I guess is in the (1) category, it's odd but acceptable in that category. I'm sure glad you didn't find it "uncivil".
