    He doesn't think at all. That's why I have him on ignore. You should try it.

    In order to properly do my job here, I can't put anyone on ignore.

    Trust me, I wish I didn't care enough to break my own rule.:(

    What is the deal with your response to me? I added useful (and correct) info to your post, in a polite, non-confrontational way. It is surprising to me you took it as some sort of a personal challenge.

    Because you never should've brought it up to begin with. You need to listen to RM95 more, man.

    My posts were correct so I'm not sure why you would say that.

    To me R2K's arrogant response is confusing. Yours isn't, because I poked fun at your post, but it is weird R2K has such a strong reaction to me correcting his post and taking it as a personal challenge of some kind, like anything he posts is beyond reproach. He admitted what I posted was correct, so it must be some kind of ego thing. Oh well, whats new.

    Very few (if any) of us post exclusively in D&D. Ergo, I'm sure most people would find it perfectly rational to extrapolate the rule to extend to all signatures even if it weren't explicitly stated as such.

    Nobody's saying you're wrong, but your insistence on being acknowledged for pure semantic accuracy is likely getting under folks' skins IMHO.

    You're like a 5-year-old who doesn't understand why teacher is upset after you ask them why they should tell another kid to stop talking during class.

    People were saying I was wrong, and even more wrong to have the audacity to correct a post of R2K (lol wut). That's fine as people are often confrontational here, but then R2K stepped in and seemed offended for some comical reason.


    That doesn't even make sense. I didn't undermine or confront anyone. I just corrected a post and then added a helpful link.

    Seemed more like you were saying everyone else was wrong by not including the "if you post outside the D&D" caveat.

    But hey...ain't nothing wrong with interpreting the situation your way. We all see things through different colored glasses.

    don't flatter yourself Casey.

    I was/am not mad at all. If you read arrogant, that's you putting something into it that wasn't there.

    I didn't mention the caveat you are busy patting yourself on the back over pointing out because I knew it didn't apply to him. Therefore, it doesn't matter if Clutch said that 4 years ago because there is no such animal as someone who solely posts in here.

    I'm done with this, I've made my position abundantly clear and have given you more of an explanation than ANY mod here would normally do.

    No other mod would take anything I said as a one-on-one battle of BBS rules. I'm not patting myself on the back for anything, I'm defending myself from Groog acting like I just lost faith in Jesus or something.

    This is an arrogant, ego driven, 'Though shalt not' line, that is actually comical. I never said you were mad, I'm not either, just confused. I'm not even sure what problem you have with me, but it's laughable to say I challenged you in some way. Whatever
