I am sure it was last year during the period leading up to the referendum.
I care about people, you only care about people who hold your own views, that is why you get so upset, 'booohoohoo Robert is nasty, he makes me cry'.
Get a grip of yourself, being offended on behalf of other people is pathetic.

The mod said in a PM the following:

Dear RobertKK,

You have been warned for being uncivil.

Typically, this means that you are posting in a needlessly aggressive or confrontational manner being disruptive on the forum or causing stress for the other members. We don't want that here.

For more information please refer to the Boards.ie FAQ.

It wasn't expressed previously. that is the first time that poster has mentioned how it affected them personally. But you dont care about the personal pain your nasty views cause people and you probably never will.

The person in other posts called me callous and in another a hypocrite, and reporting led to nothing which to me is saying the mod or mods in question who dealt with it are operating on double standards, it was a and let me quote the above mod a "needlessly aggressive or confrontational manner" post that led to my reply.
Plus it is not in the rules that one is always required to express a sympathy towards someone. I did nothing wrong but this person chose to target me due to previous grievances as if I was uncaring.
I think it is pathetic getting offended for someone else who has not shown they themselves were offended - I did nothing to offend for me to receive a reply about nasty views. One is allowed to oppose abortion and be civil in the opposition, which I was and if my views were described as nasty and it was fine, but someone else's view as pathetic as they used someone else to have a go at me is being uncivil.
I don't see the fairness in the card I received.

Calling someone pathethic is name calling.

You seem to have extrapolated out i am profiling you in some way. I am not. You called someone a name, i gave you the lightest warning i could.

I never said the person was pathetic, it was taking up the position of being offended on someone else's behalf that is pathetic, and done for point scoring.
Because if saying somone's opinion is pathetic is name calling, then saying I have nasty views, callous etc is also name calling and I reported to see what would happen, and nothing.
That is why I asked the mod about the double standards on what is deemed name calling and what isn't, and whether it was done on personal views on the subject.
I just want to get treated with the same standards as others.
