Comma after "For example"

Hello,

I am a little bit confused about commas after introductory phrases, especially "for example."

https://forums.onlinebookclub.org/viewt ... 2&t=544450 Here says that commas after such phrases are subjective. However, "for example" is usually written with a comma after it. I have never seen it without.

Please help!

According to OBC, the lack of a comma after an introductory phrase is not an objective error.
