From the guidelines:

Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think something is spam or offtopic, flag it by going to its page and clicking on the "flag" link. (Not all users will see this; there is a karma threshold.) If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did.

How does that make the submission appropriate?
It means this is the wrong place to moan about it.
Would the proper response then not be to flag my comment rather than making a comment about it not adhering to the guidelines?
Yes, if I had enough Karma.
So moaning about a comment is okay, but moaning about a submission is not okay ever. Got it.
I didn't moan about your comment, I referred you to the guidelines.
