    Well if I had to guess I would say a mod negged you for the large font (only mods can neg rep), and then you got negged again for telling that mod to F himself.

    My advice, learn from it and let it go! Nothing good comes from you going against the mods! You don't know who else has received a neg rep for profanity so don't go that route, saying everyone else is doing it. I'm willing to bet there's quite a few people who have been neg repp'd for this! As the saying says "Live and Learn".

    I once got neg repped because I had a signature like "politics are for chumps" because it was political in nature and shouldn't be outside the D&D. :p

    People have bad days.

    Part of it, at least in the second one (and maybe the first as well), is probably because you directed at someone.

    Saying "What the ****" or "I hate this ****" is a little profane, but essentially harmless. Telling somebody FU or telling them to F Off, gets into personal attacks which is something that will get you negged and eventually banned (at least temporarily) on this site.

    Haymitch it probably right. First time was probably for the giant bold font. Second time was because you were directing the profanity at a specific person.

    The best way is to do it when the mods aren't looking.

    You increased the font, thereby making it more noticeable.

    can you imagine an official apology from Clutch sometime for not catching an infraction.

    "Clutchfans would like to apologize for calling that neg rep wrong. It should not have gone against rocketsballin, but should have gone agaisnt the LOF, with two free posts awarded to rocketsballin.

    GO ROCKETS!!

    We are so going to destroy Portland Game 2

    If the mods were really like the NBA refs, they'd have given me a technical because I made fun of them.
