Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Yeah I think they just meant the turn of phrase to be: "worse still" or "and on top of that".

PS:

I'm still not making sense probably.

I think they meant it like

Disorder is bad but the combination of disorder PLUS people chirping is even worse.

E.g., it's bad enough I smashed my foot dropping a brick on it but on top of that I stubbed my toe, too.

Smashing my food is bad but even worse is [also] subbing my toe [on top of the already smashed foot]
