Uh-huh. The player involved could make a legitimate complaint, if (s)he so desires. Not sure what it would achieve though, unless this is a repeat offence.

I've issued an official warning for spam and flamebiat. I don't want "flame forms" proliferating on NationStates.

Though I was sorely tempted to reply with a "Moderator Action" form.

Oh yes! Mod Action forms would be funny to say the least... and would lessen the confusion for some us going, "Huh? Why'd the mods do that?!?" :lol:

I'm glad you didn't. Modding isn't about getting even - it's about cleaning up the forums with a minimum of disruption.

It's a glimmer of hope for the forum.

It's good that Cog didn't post it in the thread, but it would be amusing if he posted it here.
