aries — I think people were “reading in” to your question because everyone is assuming that this Halacha is pretty clear and well known (as you can see from the thread — no differences of opinion for once!). So it can’t be that you are “simply” asking what the Halacha is, because we assume you know what the Halacha is. Therefore either you are trying in a roundabout way to remind people about this Halacha, or you have an alternative motive.
I do not see any “confessions” on this thread — on the contrary there are only people defending their innocence and offering explanations as to what you asked when you said “I have been wondering for a very long time how so many who said they were working people can manage to be on the CR during normal working hours”. So people are explaining how they manage it — people are taking it “personally” because you said you were wondering how people did it. Even in your last post you say “if you are personally guilty then that is something YOU should think about and consider before accusing someone else of “trampling” on halacha”, implying that those who accused you of “trampling” on Halacha in a different thread may be guilty of this. So far no one has said this is ok, and no one has admitted to doing it, so who are you addressing this accusation at?
And as I pointed out earlier, the same people jumping to defend other Halachos are also pretty shtark in this post as well.
Also, I don’t see anyone trying to figure out WHO you meant — people are just answering for themselves as far as I see, which is a pretty normal response to your question which specifically asks about posters on YWN!
I’m sure you didn’t mean it this way, but your posts have come out very accusatory, and as by definition you are discussing the people who post here, obviously people are reacting because no one likes to be accused of wrongdoing (even when innocent).
